Class ItemMappingIterator

java.lang.Object

net.sf.saxon.expr.ItemMappingIterator

All Implemented Interfaces:

LastPositionFinder, SequenceIterator, LookaheadIterator

Direct Known Subclasses:

MultithreadedItemMappingIterator

public class ItemMappingIterator
extends java.lang.Object
implements SequenceIterator, LookaheadIterator, LastPositionFinder

ItemMappingIterator applies a mapping function to each item in a sequence. The mapping function either returns a single item, or null (representing an empty sequence).

This is a specialization of the more general MappingIterator class, for use in cases where a single input item never maps to a sequence of more than one output item.

Constructor Detail

ItemMappingIterator

public ItemMappingIterator(SequenceIterator base,
                           ItemMappingFunction action)

Construct an ItemMappingIterator that will apply a specified DummyItemMappingFunction to each Item returned by the base iterator.

Parameters:

base - the base iterator

action - the mapping function to be applied.

ItemMappingIterator

public ItemMappingIterator(SequenceIterator base,
                           ItemMappingFunction action,
                           boolean oneToOne)

Construct an ItemMappingIterator that will apply a specified ItemMappingFunction to each Item returned by the base iterator.

Parameters:

base - the base iterator

action - the mapping function to be applied

oneToOne - true if this iterator is one-to-one

Method Detail

setOneToOne

public void setOneToOne(boolean oneToOne)

Say whether this ItemMappingIterator is one-to-one: that is, for every input item, there is always exactly one output item. The default is false.

Parameters:

oneToOne - true if this iterator is one-to-one

isOneToOne

public boolean isOneToOne()

Ask whether this ItemMappingIterator is one-to-one: that is, for every input item, there is always exactly one output item. The default is false.

Returns:

true if this iterator is one-to-one

getBaseIterator

protected SequenceIterator getBaseIterator()

Get the base (input) iterator

Returns:

the iterator over the input sequence

getMappingFunction

protected ItemMappingFunction getMappingFunction()

Get the mapping function (the function applied to each item in the input sequence

Returns:

the mapping function

hasNext

public boolean hasNext()

Description copied from interface: LookaheadIterator

Determine whether there are more items to come. Note that this operation is stateless and it is not necessary (or usual) to call it before calling next(). It is used only when there is an explicit need to tell if we are at the last element.

This method must not be called unless the result of getProperties() on the iterator includes the bit setting SequenceIterator.LOOKAHEAD

Specified by:

hasNext in interface LookaheadIterator

Returns:

true if there are more items in the sequence

next

public Item next()
          throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: SequenceIterator

Get the next item in the sequence. This method changes the state of the iterator.

Specified by:

next in interface SequenceIterator

Returns:

the next item, or null if there are no more items. Once a call on next() has returned null, no further calls should be made. The preferred action for an iterator if subsequent calls on next() are made is to return null again, and all implementations within Saxon follow this rule.

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs retrieving the next item

close

public void close()

Description copied from interface: SequenceIterator

Close the iterator. This indicates to the supplier of the data that the client does not require any more items to be delivered by the iterator. This may enable the supplier to release resources. After calling close(), no further calls on the iterator should be made; if further calls are made, the effect of such calls is undefined.

(Currently, closing an iterator is important only when the data is being "pushed" in another thread. Closing the iterator terminates that thread and means that it needs to do no additional work. Indeed, failing to close the iterator may cause the push thread to hang waiting for the buffer to be emptied.)

Specified by:

close in interface SequenceIterator

getLength

public int getLength()
              throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: LastPositionFinder

Get the last position (that is, the number of items in the sequence). This method is non-destructive: it does not change the state of the iterator. The result is undefined if the next() method of the iterator has already returned null. This method must not be called unless the result of getProperties() on the iterator includes the bit setting SequenceIterator.LAST_POSITION_FINDER

Specified by:

getLength in interface LastPositionFinder

Returns:

the number of items in the sequence

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs evaluating the sequence in order to determine the number of items

getProperties

public int getProperties()

Get properties of this iterator, as a bit-significant integer.

Specified by:

getProperties in interface SequenceIterator

Returns:

the properties of this iterator. This will be some combination of properties such as SequenceIterator.GROUNDED, SequenceIterator.LAST_POSITION_FINDER, and SequenceIterator.LOOKAHEAD. It is always acceptable to return the value zero, indicating that there are no known special properties. It is acceptable for the properties of the iterator to change depending on its state.
