Class IterateAction

All Implemented Interfaces:
Result, Receiver

public class IterateAction extends ForEachAction
This watch implements xsl:iterate in streaming mode. It watches for the nodes selected by the xsl:iterate instruction; when such a node is encountered, it locates the relevant (inverted) template, and activates it.

The watch is capable of handling a select expression that selects non-peer nodes (that is, one selected node that is a descendant of another). A top-level selected node is processed directly to the output receiver; a nested node is processed to create a temporary result tree, which is then appended to the output sequence when the processing of the outer selected node is complete.

    • open

      public void open(Terminator terminator) throws XPathException
      Description copied from class: ItemFeed
      Start evaluating the expression. The default implementation does nothing.
      Overrides:
      open in class ForEachAction
      Parameters:
      terminator - used to achieve early exit
      Throws:
      XPathException - if a dynamic error occurs
    • startSelectedParentNode

      public Receiver startSelectedParentNode(FleetingParentNode node, Location locationId) throws XPathException
      Signal that an element has been found that matches the selection that this Watch is looking for. This method is called by the WatchManager while processing the startElement event that matches the selection. For this purpose, any attributes selected by the last step in the selection are ignored
      Overrides:
      startSelectedParentNode in class ForEachAction
      Parameters:
      node - the element or document node whose start event has been matched
      locationId - the location associated with the element or document node (may be the location of the instruction that created it)
      Returns:
      a receiver that collects the contents of the selected node, or null
      Throws:
      ValidationException - May be raised if the constraint implemented by this Watch is violated @param locationId the location of the node in the source, or of the instruction that created it
      XPathException - May be raised if a dynamic error occurs
    • append

      public void append(Item it) throws XPathException
      Signal that a node (other than an element) that matches the selection has been found.
      Specified by:
      append in interface Receiver
      Overrides:
      append in class ForEachAction
      Parameters:
      it - the node that was matched.
      Throws:
      XPathException - if the operation fails
    • endSelectedParentNode

      public void endSelectedParentNode(Location locationId) throws XPathException
      Signal that the endElement event has occurred for the element whose startElement event caused the Watch to be activated.
      Overrides:
      endSelectedParentNode in class ForEachAction
      Parameters:
      locationId - the location of the node in the source, or of the instruction that created it
      Throws:
      ValidationException - May be raised if the constraint implemented by this Watch is violated @param locationId the location of the node in the source, or of the instruction that created it
      XPathException - May be raised if a constraint implemented by this Watch is violated
    • close

      public void close() throws XPathException
      Description copied from class: ItemFeed
      Finish evaluating the expression.
      Specified by:
      close in interface Receiver
      Overrides:
      close in class ForEachAction
      Throws:
      XPathException - if a dynamic error occurs
