    • startSelectedParentNode

      public Receiver startSelectedParentNode(FleetingParentNode node, Location locationId) throws XPathException
      Description copied from class: ItemFeed
      Signal that an element or document node has been found that matches the selection that this Watch is looking for. This method is called by the WatchManager while processing the startElement or startDocument event that matches the selection.
      Overrides:
      startSelectedParentNode in class ItemFeed
      Parameters:
      node - the element or document node whose start event has been matched

      Returns:
      a Receiver to be notified of all events starting with the startElement/startDocument event for the matched element, and ending with the endElement event for that element; or null if this feature is not required.
      Throws:
      XPathException - May be raised if a dynamic error occurs
    • endSelectedParentNode

      public void endSelectedParentNode(Location locationId) throws XPathException

      Overrides:
      endSelectedParentNode in class ItemFeed
      Parameters:
      locationId - the location of the element
      Throws:
      XPathException - May be raised if a constraint implemented by this Watch is violated
    • append
