Class NodeSet

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.xpath.NodeSet

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable, ContextNodeList, org.w3c.dom.NodeList, org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeIterator

public class NodeSet
extends java.lang.Object
implements org.w3c.dom.NodeList, org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeIterator, java.lang.Cloneable, ContextNodeList

The NodeSet class can act as either a NodeVector, NodeList, or NodeIterator. However, in order for it to act as a NodeVector or NodeList, it's required that setShouldCacheNodes(true) be called before the first nextNode() is called, in order that nodes can be added as they are fetched. Derived classes that implement iterators must override runTo(int index), in order that they may run the iteration to the given index.

Note that we directly implement the DOM's NodeIterator interface. We do not emulate all the behavior of the standard NodeIterator. In particular, we do not guarantee to present a "live view" of the document ... but in XSLT, the source document should never be mutated, so this should never be an issue.

Thought: Should NodeSet really implement NodeList and NodeIterator, or should there be specific subclasses of it which do so? The advantage of doing it all here is that all NodeSets will respond to the same calls; the disadvantage is that some of them may return less-than-enlightening results when you do so.

Parameters:

ni - Iterator which yields Nodes to be made members of the new set.

NodeSet

public NodeSet(org.w3c.dom.Node node)

Create a NodeSet which contains the given Node.

Parameters:

node - Single node to be added to the new set.

Method Detail

getRoot

public org.w3c.dom.Node getRoot()

Specified by:

getRoot in interface org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeIterator

Returns:

The root node of the Iterator, as specified when it was created. For non-Iterator NodeSets, this will be null.

cloneWithReset

public org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeIterator cloneWithReset()
                                                  throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

Get a cloned Iterator, and reset its state to the beginning of the iteration.

Specified by:

cloneWithReset in interface ContextNodeList

Returns:

a new NodeSet of the same type, having the same state... except that the reset() operation has been called.

Throws:

java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException - if this subclass of NodeSet does not support the clone() operation.

reset

public void reset()

Reset the iterator. May have no effect on non-iterator Nodesets.

Specified by:

reset in interface ContextNodeList

getWhatToShow

public int getWhatToShow()

This attribute determines which node types are presented via the iterator. The available set of constants is defined in the NodeFilter interface. For NodeSets, the mask has been hardcoded to show all nodes except EntityReference nodes, which have no equivalent in the XPath data model.

Specified by:

getWhatToShow in interface org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeIterator

Returns:

integer used as a bit-array, containing flags defined in the DOM's NodeFilter class. The value will be SHOW_ALL & ~SHOW_ENTITY_REFERENCE, meaning that only entity references are suppressed.

getFilter

public org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeFilter getFilter()

The filter object used to screen nodes. Filters are applied to further reduce (and restructure) the NodeIterator's view of the document. In our case, we will be using hardcoded filters built into our iterators... but getFilter() is part of the DOM's NodeIterator interface, so we have to support it.

Specified by:

getFilter in interface org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeIterator

Returns:

null, which is slightly misleading. True, there is no user-written filter object, but in fact we are doing some very sophisticated custom filtering. A DOM purist might suggest returning a placeholder object just to indicate that this is not going to return all nodes selected by whatToShow.

getExpandEntityReferences

public boolean getExpandEntityReferences()

The value of this flag determines whether the children of entity reference nodes are visible to the iterator. If false, they will be skipped over.
To produce a view of the document that has entity references expanded and does not expose the entity reference node itself, use the whatToShow flags to hide the entity reference node and set expandEntityReferences to true when creating the iterator. To produce a view of the document that has entity reference nodes but no entity expansion, use the whatToShow flags to show the entity reference node and set expandEntityReferences to false.

Specified by:

getExpandEntityReferences in interface org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeIterator

Returns:

true for all iterators based on NodeSet, meaning that the contents of EntityRefrence nodes may be returned (though whatToShow says that the EntityReferences themselves are not shown.)

nextNode

public org.w3c.dom.Node nextNode()
                          throws org.w3c.dom.DOMException

Returns the next node in the set and advances the position of the iterator in the set. After a NodeIterator is created, the first call to nextNode() returns the first node in the set.

Specified by:

nextNode in interface org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeIterator

Returns:

The next Node in the set being iterated over, or null if there are no more members in that set.

Throws:

org.w3c.dom.DOMException - INVALID_STATE_ERR: Raised if this method is called after the detach method was invoked.

previousNode

public org.w3c.dom.Node previousNode()
                              throws org.w3c.dom.DOMException

Returns the previous node in the set and moves the position of the iterator backwards in the set.

Specified by:

previousNode in interface org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeIterator

Returns:

The previous Node in the set being iterated over, ornull if there are no more members in that set.

Throws:

org.w3c.dom.DOMException - INVALID_STATE_ERR: Raised if this method is called after the detach method was invoked.

java.lang.RuntimeException - thrown if this NodeSet is not of a cached type, and hence doesn't know what the previous node was.

detach

public void detach()

Detaches the iterator from the set which it iterated over, releasing any computational resources and placing the iterator in the INVALID state. Afterdetach has been invoked, calls to nextNode orpreviousNode will raise the exception INVALID_STATE_ERR.

This operation is a no-op in NodeSet, and will not cause INVALID_STATE_ERR to be raised by later operations.

Specified by:

detach in interface org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeIterator

isFresh

public boolean isFresh()

Tells if this NodeSet is "fresh", in other words, if the first nextNode() that is called will return the first node in the set.

Specified by:

isFresh in interface ContextNodeList

Returns:

true if nextNode() would return the first node in the set, false if it would return a later one.

runTo

public void runTo(int index)

If an index is requested, NodeSet will call this method to run the iterator to the index. By default this sets m_next to the index. If the index argument is -1, this signals that the iterator should be run to the end.

Specified by:

runTo in interface ContextNodeList

Parameters:

index - Position to advance (or retreat) to, with 0 requesting the reset ("fresh") position and -1 (or indeed any out-of-bounds value) requesting the final position.

Throws:

java.lang.RuntimeException - thrown if this NodeSet is not one of the types which supports indexing/counting.

item

public org.w3c.dom.Node item(int index)

Returns the indexth item in the collection. If index is greater than or equal to the number of nodes in the list, this returns null. TODO: What happens if index is out of range?

Specified by:

item in interface org.w3c.dom.NodeList

Parameters:

index - Index into the collection.

Returns:

The node at the indexth position in the NodeList, or null if that is not a valid index.

getLength

public int getLength()

The number of nodes in the list. The range of valid child node indices is 0 to length-1 inclusive. Note that this operation requires finding all the matching nodes, which may defeat attempts to defer that work.

Specified by:

getLength in interface org.w3c.dom.NodeList

Returns:

integer indicating how many nodes are represented by this list.

addNode

public void addNode(org.w3c.dom.Node n)

Add a node to the NodeSet. Not all types of NodeSets support this operation

Parameters:

n - Node to be added

Throws:

java.lang.RuntimeException - thrown if this NodeSet is not of a mutable type.

insertNode

public void insertNode(org.w3c.dom.Node n,
                       int pos)

Insert a node at a given position.

Parameters:

nodelist - List of nodes which should now be referenced by this NodeSet.

Throws:

java.lang.RuntimeException - thrown if this NodeSet is not of a mutable type.

addNodes

public void addNodes(NodeSet ns)

Copy NodeList members into this nodelist, adding in document order. Only genuine node references will be copied; nulls appearing in the source NodeSet will not be added to this one.

In case you're wondering why this function is needed: NodeSet implements both NodeIterator and NodeList. If this method isn't provided, Java can't decide which of those to use when addNodes() is invoked. Providing the more-explicit match avoids that ambiguity.)

Parameters:

ns - NodeSet whose members should be merged into this NodeSet.

Throws:

java.lang.RuntimeException - thrown if this NodeSet is not of a mutable type.

addNodes

public void addNodes(org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeIterator iterator)
