Package net.sf.saxon.sxpath

Class XPathDynamicContext

  • public class XPathDynamicContext
extends java.lang.Object
    This object represents the dynamic XPath execution context for use in the free-standing Saxon XPath API. The dynamic context holds the context item and the values of external variables used by the XPath expression.

    This object is always created via the method XPathExpression.createDynamicContext(net.sf.saxon.om.Item)

    • Method Detail

      • setContextItem

        public void setContextItem​(Item item)
                    throws XPathException
        Set the context item for evaluation of the XPath Expression
        Parameters:
        item - the context item
        Throws:
        XPathException - if the node is in a document that was built under the wrong configuration

      • getContextItem

        public Item getContextItem()
        Get the context item
        Returns:
        the context item if there is one, or null otherwise

      • setVariable

        public void setVariable​(XPathVariable variable,
                        Sequence value)
                 throws XPathException
        Set the value of an external variable used within the XPath expression
        Parameters:
        variable - the object representing the variable. Note that setting the value of a variable does not modify the XPathVariable object itself, which means that this method is thread-safe.
        value - The value of the variable.
        Throws:
        XPathException - if the supplied value does not conform to the required type of the variable; or if the supplied value contains a node that does not belong to this Configuration (or another Configuration that shares the same namePool)

      • setURIResolver

        public void setURIResolver​(javax.xml.transform.URIResolver resolver)
        Set an object that will be used to resolve URIs used in document(), etc. The URIResolver is set locally to this XPathContext object.
        Parameters:
        resolver - An object that implements the URIResolver interface, or null.
        Since:
        9.2. Changed in 9.6 to set the URIResolver locally.

      • getURIResolver

        public javax.xml.transform.URIResolver getURIResolver()
        Get the URI resolver.
        Returns:
        the user-supplied URI resolver if there is one, or null otherwise. If no URIResolver has been set locally, the URIResolver in the Controller is returned; this in turn defaults to the URIResolver set in the Configuration.
        Since:
        9.2. Changed in 9.6 to use a local URIResolver.

      • getCollectionFinder

        public CollectionFinder getCollectionFinder()
        Get the collection finder associated with this configuration. This is used to dereference collection URIs used in the fn:collection and fn:uri-collection functions
        Returns:
        the CollectionFinder to be used
        Since:
        9.7

      • setCollectionFinder

        public void setCollectionFinder​(CollectionFinder cf)
        Set the collection finder associated with this configuration. This is used to dereference collection URIs used in the fn:collection and fn:uri-collection functions
        Parameters:
        cf - the CollectionFinder to be used
        Since:
        9.7

      • setErrorReporter

        public void setErrorReporter​(ErrorReporter listener)
        Set the error listener. The ErrorListener is set locally to this XPathContext object.
        Parameters:
        listener - the ErrorListener to be used
        Since:
        9.2. Changed in 9.6 to set the ErrorListener locally. Changed in 10.0 to use an ErrorReporter rather than an ErrorListener

      • getErrorReporter

        public ErrorReporter getErrorReporter()
        Get the error listener. If no ErrorListener has been set locally, the ErrorListener in the Controller is returned; this in turn defaults to the ErrorListener set in the Configuration.
        Returns:
        the ErrorListener in use. This will always be an UnfailingErrorListener, which is a Saxon subclass of ErrorListener that throws no exceptions.
        Since:
        9.2. Changed in 9.6 to use a local ErrorListener. Changed in 10.0 to use an ErrorReporter rather than an ErrorListener

      • getXPathContextObject

        public XPathContext getXPathContextObject()
        For system use: get the wrapped XPathContext object
        Returns:
        the underlying XPathContext object

      • setUnparsedTextURIResolver

        public void setUnparsedTextURIResolver​(UnparsedTextURIResolver resolver)
        Set an object that will be used to resolve URIs used in fn:unparsed-text() and related functions.
        Parameters:
        resolver - An object that implements the UnparsedTextURIResolver interface, or null.
        Since:
        9.5

      • getUnparsedTextURIResolver

        public UnparsedTextURIResolver getUnparsedTextURIResolver()
        Get the URI resolver for unparsed text.
        Returns:
        the user-supplied unparsed text URI resolver if there is one, or the system-defined one otherwise
        Since:
        9.5

      • checkExternalVariables

        protected void checkExternalVariables​(SlotManager stackFrameMap,
                                      int numberOfExternals)
                               throws XPathException
        Check that all external variables have been given a value
        Parameters:
        stackFrameMap - describes the stack frame
        numberOfExternals - the number of variables that need to be supplied
        Throws:
        XPathException - if required variables have not been given a value
