Constructor Detail

XStringForChars

public XStringForChars(char[] val,
                       int start,
                       int length)

Construct a XNodeSet object.

Parameters:

val - FastStringBuffer object this will wrap, must be non-null.

start - The start position in the array.

length - The number of characters to read from the array.

XStringForChars

private XStringForChars(java.lang.String val)

Construct a XNodeSet object.

Parameters:

val - String object this will wrap.

Method Detail

fsb

public FastStringBuffer fsb()

Cast result object to a string.

Returns:

The string this wraps or the empty string if null

appendToFsb

public void appendToFsb(FastStringBuffer fsb)

Cast result object to a string.

Overrides:

appendToFsb in class XObject

hasString

public boolean hasString()

Tell if this object contains a java String object.

Specified by:

hasString in interface XMLString

Overrides:

hasString in class XString

Returns:

true if this XMLString can return a string without creating one.

str

public java.lang.String str()

Cast result object to a string.

Overrides:

str in class XString

Returns:

The string this wraps or the empty string if null

object

public java.lang.Object object()

Since this object is incomplete without the length and the offset, we have to convert to a string when this function is called.

Overrides:

object in class XObject

Returns:

The java String representation of this object.

dispatchCharactersEvents

public void dispatchCharactersEvents(org.xml.sax.ContentHandler ch)
                              throws org.xml.sax.SAXException

Directly call the characters method on the passed ContentHandler for the string-value. Multiple calls to the ContentHandler's characters methods may well occur for a single call to this method.

Specified by:

dispatchCharactersEvents in interface XMLString

Overrides:

dispatchCharactersEvents in class XString

Parameters:

ch - A non-null reference to a ContentHandler.

Throws:

org.xml.sax.SAXException

dispatchAsComment

public void dispatchAsComment(org.xml.sax.ext.LexicalHandler lh)
                       throws org.xml.sax.SAXException

Directly call the comment method on the passed LexicalHandler for the string-value.

Specified by:

dispatchAsComment in interface XMLString

Overrides:

dispatchAsComment in class XString

Parameters:

lh - A non-null reference to a LexicalHandler.

Throws:

org.xml.sax.SAXException

length

public int length()

Returns the length of this string.

Specified by:

length in interface XMLString

Overrides:

length in class XString

Returns:

the length of the sequence of characters represented by this object.

charAt

public char charAt(int index)

Returns the character at the specified index. An index ranges from 0 to length() - 1. The first character of the sequence is at index 0, the next at index 1, and so on, as for array indexing.

Specified by:

charAt in interface XMLString

Overrides:

charAt in class XString

Parameters:

index - the index of the character.

Returns:

the character at the specified index of this string. The first character is at index 0.

Throws:

java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - if the index argument is negative or not less than the length of this string.

getChars

public void getChars(int srcBegin,
                     int srcEnd,
                     char[] dst,
                     int dstBegin)

Copies characters from this string into the destination character array.

Specified by:

getChars in interface XMLString

Overrides:

getChars in class XString

Parameters:

srcBegin - index of the first character in the string to copy.

srcEnd - index after the last character in the string to copy.

dst - the destination array.

dstBegin - the start offset in the destination array.

Throws:

java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - If any of the following is true:

• srcBegin is negative.
• srcBegin is greater than srcEnd
• srcEnd is greater than the length of this string
• dstBegin is negative
• dstBegin+(srcEnd-srcBegin) is larger than dst.length

java.lang.NullPointerException - if dst is null
