Package net.sf.saxon.expr.parser

Class XPathParser.NestedLocation

java.lang.Object

net.sf.saxon.expr.parser.XPathParser.NestedLocation

All Implemented Interfaces:

SourceLocator, Location, Locator

Enclosing class:

XPathParser

public static class XPathParser.NestedLocation
extends Object
implements Location

A nested location: for use with XPath expressions and queries nested within some larger document. The location information comes in two parts: the location of the query or expression within the containing document, and the location of an error within the query or XPath expression.

Constructor Summary

Constructors

Constructor	Description
NestedLocation(Location containingLocation, int localLineNumber, int localColumnNumber, String nearbyText)	Create a NestedLocation

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
int	getColumnNumber()	Get the column number of the error within the expression or query
Location	getContainingLocation()	Get the location of the container.
int	getLineNumber()	Get the line number within the containing entity.
int	getLocalLineNumber()	Get the local line number, that is the line number relative to the start of the expression or query.
String	getNearbyText()	Get text appearing near to the error (typically a syntax error) within the source text of the expression or query.
String	getPublicId()	Get the public identifier.
String	getSystemId()	Get the system identifier of the expression's container.
Location	saveLocation()	Save an immutable copy of the location information.

Constructor Details

NestedLocation

public NestedLocation(Location containingLocation,
 int localLineNumber,
 int localColumnNumber,
 String nearbyText)

Create a NestedLocation

Parameters:

containingLocation - the location of the containing construct, typically an attribute or text node in an XML document

localLineNumber - the line number within the containing construct, starting at zero

localColumnNumber - the column number within the containing construct, starting at zero

nearbyText - text appearing in the vicinity of the error location

Method Details

getContainingLocation

public Location getContainingLocation()

Get the location of the container. This is normally used for expressions nested within an XML document, where the container location gives the location of the attribute or text node holding the XPath expression as a whole

Returns:

the location of the containing expression or query

getColumnNumber

public int getColumnNumber()

Get the column number of the error within the expression or query

Specified by:

getColumnNumber in interface Location

Specified by:

getColumnNumber in interface Locator

Specified by:

getColumnNumber in interface SourceLocator

Returns:

the column number. This is generally maintained only during parsing, so it will be returned as -1 (meaning not available) in the case of dynamic errors. Column numbers start at 0. For expressions held within XML attributes, the position is within the attribute after XML attribute-value normalization, which replaces newlines by spaces and expands entity references.

getSystemId

public String getSystemId()

Get the system identifier of the expression's container. This will normally be the URI of the document (or external entity) in which the expression appears.

Specified by:

getSystemId in interface Location

Specified by:

getSystemId in interface Locator

Specified by:

getSystemId in interface SourceLocator

Returns:

the system identifier of the expression's container, or null if not known

getPublicId

public String getPublicId()

Get the public identifier. This will normally be null, but is provided for compatibility with SAX and JAXP interfaces

Specified by:

getPublicId in interface Location

Specified by:

getPublicId in interface Locator

Specified by:

getPublicId in interface SourceLocator

Returns:

the public identifier - usually null

getLocalLineNumber

public int getLocalLineNumber()

Get the local line number, that is the line number relative to the start of the expression or query. For expressions held within XML attributes, the position is within the attribute after XML attribute-value normalization, which replaces newlines by spaces and expands entity references; the value will therefore in many cases not be usable. Local line numbers start at 0.

Returns:

the local line number within the expression or query. Set to -1 if not known.

getLineNumber

public int getLineNumber()

Get the line number within the containing entity. This is the sum of the containing location's line number, plus the local line number. Returns -1 if unknown.

Specified by:

getLineNumber in interface Location

Specified by:

getLineNumber in interface Locator

Specified by:

getLineNumber in interface SourceLocator

Returns:

the line number within the containing entity, or -1 if unknown.

getNearbyText

public String getNearbyText()

Get text appearing near to the error (typically a syntax error) within the source text of the expression or query.

Returns:

nearby text to the error. May be null.

saveLocation

public Location saveLocation()

Save an immutable copy of the location information. This implementation does nothing, because the object is already immutable

Specified by:

saveLocation in interface Location

Returns:

immutable location information.
