Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
int	asNode(XPathContext xctxt) Return the first node out of the nodeset, if this expression is a nodeset expression.
int	getAxis() Returns the axis being iterated, if it is known.
int	nextNode() Returns the next node in the set and advances the position of the iterator in the set.

Method Detail

asNode

public int asNode(XPathContext xctxt)
           throws TransformerException

Return the first node out of the nodeset, if this expression is a nodeset expression. This is the default implementation for nodesets.

WARNING: Do not mutate this class from this function!

Overrides:

asNode in class LocPathIterator

Parameters:

xctxt - The XPath runtime context.

Returns:

the first node out of the nodeset, or DTM.NULL.

Throws:

TransformerException

nextNode

public int nextNode()

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 DTMIterator

Specified by:

nextNode in class LocPathIterator

Returns:

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

getAxis

public int getAxis()

Returns the axis being iterated, if it is known.

Specified by:

getAxis in interface DTMIterator

Overrides:

getAxis in class LocPathIterator

Returns:

Axis.CHILD, etc., or -1 if the axis is not known or is of multiple types.
