Constructor Detail

NthIterator

public NthIterator(DTMAxisIterator source,
                   int n)

Method Detail

setRestartable

public void setRestartable(boolean isRestartable)

Description copied from interface: DTMAxisIterator

Set if restartable.

Specified by:

setRestartable in interface DTMAxisIterator

Overrides:

setRestartable in class DTMAxisIteratorBase

cloneIterator

public DTMAxisIterator cloneIterator()

Description copied from class: DTMAxisIteratorBase

Returns a deep copy of this iterator. Cloned iterators may not be restartable. The iterator being cloned may or may not become non-restartable as a side effect of this operation.

Specified by:

cloneIterator in interface DTMAxisIterator

Overrides:

cloneIterator in class DTMAxisIteratorBase

Returns:

a deep copy of this iterator.

next

public int next()

Description copied from interface: DTMAxisIterator

Get the next node in the iteration.

Returns:

The next node handle in the iteration, or END.

setStartNode

public DTMAxisIterator setStartNode(int node)

Description copied from interface: DTMAxisIterator

Set start to END should 'close' the iterator, i.e. subsequent call to next() should return END.

Parameters:

node - Sets the root of the iteration.

Returns:

A DTMAxisIterator set to the start of the iteration.

reset

public DTMAxisIterator reset()

Description copied from interface: DTMAxisIterator

Resets the iterator to the last start node.

Specified by:

reset in interface DTMAxisIterator

Overrides:

reset in class DTMAxisIteratorBase

Returns:

A DTMAxisIterator which has been reset to the start node, which may or may not be the same as this iterator.

getLast

public int getLast()

Description copied from class: DTMAxisIteratorBase

Returns the position of the last node within the iteration, as defined by XPath. In a forward iterator, I believe this equals the number of nodes which this iterator will yield. In a reverse iterator, I believe it should return 1 (since the "last" is the first produced.) This may be an expensive operation when called the first time, since it may have to iterate through a large part of the document to produce its answer.

Specified by:

getLast in interface DTMAxisIterator

Overrides:

getLast in class DTMAxisIteratorBase

Returns:

The number of nodes in this iterator (forward) or 1 (reverse).

getPosition

public int getPosition()

Specified by:

getPosition in interface DTMAxisIterator

Overrides:

getPosition in class DTMAxisIteratorBase

Returns:

The position of the current node within the set, as defined by XPath. Note that this is one-based, not zero-based.

setMark

public void setMark()

Description copied from interface: DTMAxisIterator

Remembers the current node for the next call to gotoMark().

gotoMark

public void gotoMark()

Description copied from interface: DTMAxisIterator

Restores the current node remembered by setMark().
