public interface ExpressionNode
extends javax.xml.transform.SourceLocator

A class that implements this interface can construct expressions, give information about child and parent expressions, and give the originating source information. A class that implements this interface does not lay any claim to being directly executable.

Note: This interface should not be considered stable. Only exprSetParent and exprGetParent can be counted on to work reliably. Work in progress.

Method Summary

void	exprAddChild(ExpressionNode n, int i) This method tells the node to add its argument to the node's list of children.
ExpressionNode	exprGetChild(int i) This method returns a child node.
int	exprGetNumChildren() Return the number of children the node has.
ExpressionNode	exprGetParent()
void	exprSetParent(ExpressionNode n) This pair of methods are used to inform the node of its parent.

Method Detail

exprSetParent

void exprSetParent(ExpressionNode n)

This pair of methods are used to inform the node of its parent.

exprGetParent

ExpressionNode exprGetParent()

exprAddChild

void exprAddChild(ExpressionNode n,
                  int i)

This method tells the node to add its argument to the node's list of children.

exprGetChild

ExpressionNode exprGetChild(int i)

This method returns a child node. The children are numbered from zero, left to right.

exprGetNumChildren

int exprGetNumChildren()

Return the number of children the node has.
