Method Detail

getStringValue

public final String getStringValue()

Description copied from interface: Item

Get the value of the item as a string. For nodes, this is the string value of the node as defined in the XPath 2.0 data model, except that all nodes are treated as being untyped: it is not an error to get the string value of a node with a complex type. For atomic values, the method returns the result of casting the atomic value to a string.

If the calling code can handle any CharSequence, the method Item.getStringValueCS() should be used. If the caller requires a string, this method is preferred.

Returns:

the string value of the item

See Also:

Item.getStringValueCS()

getTypedValue

public SequenceIterator getTypedValue()

Get the typed value of this node. Returns the string value, as an instance of xs:string

Specified by:

getTypedValue in interface Item

Overrides:

getTypedValue in class NodeImpl

Returns:

an iterator over the items in the typed value of the node or atomic value. The items returned by this iterator will always be atomic values.

atomize

public Value atomize()

Get the typed value of this node. Returns the string value, as an instance of xs:string

Specified by:

atomize in interface NodeInfo

Overrides:

atomize in class NodeImpl

Returns:

the typed value. If requireSingleton is set to true, the result will always be an AtomicValue. In other cases it may be a Value representing a sequence whose items are atomic values.

getNodeKind

public final int getNodeKind()

Description copied from interface: NodeInfo

Get the kind of node. This will be a value such as Type.ELEMENT or Type.ATTRIBUTE. There are seven kinds of node: documents, elements, attributes, text, comments, processing-instructions, and namespaces.

Returns:

an integer identifying the kind of node. These integer values are the same as those used in the DOM

copy

public void copy(Receiver out,
                 int whichNamespaces,
                 boolean copyAnnotations,
                 int locationId)
          throws XPathException

Copy this node to a given outputter

Parameters:

out - the Receiver to which the node should be copied. It is the caller's responsibility to ensure that this Receiver is open before the method is called (or that it is self-opening), and that it is closed after use.

whichNamespaces - in the case of an element, controls which namespace nodes should be copied. Values are NodeInfo.NO_NAMESPACES, NodeInfo.LOCAL_NAMESPACES, NodeInfo.ALL_NAMESPACES

copyAnnotations - indicates whether the type annotations of element and attribute nodes should be copied

locationId - If non-zero, identifies the location of the instruction that requested this copy. If zero, indicates that the location information for the original node is to be copied; in this case the Receiver must be a LocationCopier

Throws:

XPathException

replaceStringValue

public void replaceStringValue(CharSequence stringValue)

Replace the string-value of this node

Parameters:

stringValue - the new string value
