Class UcaCollatorUsingJava

java.lang.Object
net.sf.saxon.expr.sort.UcaCollatorUsingJava
All Implemented Interfaces:
StringCollator, SubstringMatcher
public class UcaCollatorUsingJava extends Object implements SubstringMatcher
This class implements (an approximation to) the UCA Collation Algorithm relying solely on the built-in Java support (that is, without using the ICU library). This provides a fallback implementation for Saxon-HE, and it is used only when the collation URI does not include the option fallback=no.

      public UcaCollatorUsingJava(String uri, Configuration config) throws XPathException
      Create a collation from a given collation URI
      Parameters:
      uri - the collation URI, in the format defined in the W3C Functions and Operators specification
      config - the Saxon Configuration, used for diagnostics
      Throws:
      XPathException - if the collation URI does not conform to the W3C rules, or if it requires features that Saxon-HE does not support
