Package com.saxonica.ee.stream.watch

This package contains defines the two interfaces Watch and WatchMaker, and various implementations of these interfaces.

See: Description

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
Watch	A Watch represents a class that is interested in looking at nodes passing down a push pipeline.
WatchMaker	A WatchMaker is a factory class for creating a Watch.

Class Summary

Class	Description
AbstractWatch	A Watch represents a class that is interested in looking at nodes for the purpose of evaluating uniqueness and key constraints, or for XSLT streaming.
AccumulatorWatch	This watch implements a single accumulator in streaming mode.
ApplyImportsAction	Watch for an xsl:apply-imports instruction.
ApplyTemplatesAction	This watch implements xsl:apply-templates in streaming mode.
ForEachAction	This watch implements xsl:for-each in streaming mode.
ForEachAction.Activation	An activation represents an occurrence of a node that matches the selection, whose start tag has been encountered and whose end tag has not yet been encountered.
ForEachGroupParallelAction	This watch implements xsl:for-each-group in streaming mode, in cases where the population is being forked (using group-by), and where the population is not grounded.
ForEachGroupPartitionAction	This watch implements xsl:for-each-group in streaming mode, in cases where the population is being partitioned (that is, group-adjacent, group-starting-with, and group-ending-with), and where the population is not grounded.
IterateAction	This watch implements xsl:iterate in streaming mode.
NextMatchAction	Watch for an xsl:next-match instruction.
PatternWatch	A Watch represents a class that is interested in looking at nodes for the purpose of evaluating uniqueness and key constraints, or for XSLT streaming; specifically, an implementation of Watch that retains a Pattern which is evaluated to see whether a particular node matches the Watch.
StreamWatch
Terminator	A Terminator provides a method that can be called to cause early termination of a streaming pass over an input document, in the case where no more information from the document is needed.
Trigger	A Trigger is a Watch that contains a pattern used for matching streamed nodes, and a WatchAction which is invoked when a matching node is found.
WatchManager	This class sits on a push pipeline and evaluates the passing element and attribute nodes.

Package com.saxonica.ee.stream.watch Description

This package contains defines the two interfaces Watch and WatchMaker, and various implementations of these interfaces.

A Watch is used on a streaming pipeline to recognize specific events, such as the start of a selected element, and to take action when these events occur. A WatchMaker is a factory class for creating a particular kind of Watch. The WatchManager is a class that sits on the Receiver pipeline keeping track of which Watches are active, and notifying them of events so that they can decide whether they are of interest.
