Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

@FunctionalInterface
public interface LastPositionFinder

A LastPositionFinder is an interface implemented by any SequenceIterator that is able to return the position of the last item in the sequence.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
int	getLength() Get the last position (that is, the number of items in the sequence).

Method Detail

getLength

int getLength()
       throws XPathException

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

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
