Class NodeTestPattern

All Implemented Interfaces:
ExportAgent, Locatable, IdentityComparable, Traceable

public class NodeTestPattern extends Pattern
A NodeTestPattern is a pattern that consists simply of a NodeTest
  • Constructor Details

    • NodeTestPattern

      public NodeTestPattern(NodeTest test)
      Create an NodeTestPattern that matches all items of a given type
      Parameters:
      test - the type that the items must satisfy for the pattern to match
  • Method Details

    • matches

      public boolean matches(Item item, XPathContext context)
      Determine whether this Pattern matches the given Node. This is the main external interface for matching patterns: it sets current() to the node being tested
      Specified by:
      matches in class Pattern
      Parameters:
      item - The item to be tested against the Pattern
      context - The context in which the match is to take place.
      Returns:
      true if the item matches the Pattern, false otherwise
    • getItemType

      public NodeTest getItemType()
      Get a NodeTest that all the nodes matching this pattern must satisfy
      Specified by:
      getItemType in class Pattern
      Returns:
      an ItemType, as specific as possible, which all the matching items satisfy
    • getUType

      public UType getUType()
      Get a UType indicating which kinds of items this Pattern can match.
      Specified by:
      getUType in class Pattern
      Returns:
      a UType indicating all the primitive types of item that the pattern can match.
    • getFingerprint

      public int getFingerprint()
      Determine the name fingerprint of nodes to which this pattern applies. Used for optimisation.
      Overrides:
      getFingerprint in class Pattern
      Returns:
      A fingerprint that the nodes must match, or -1 if it can match multiple fingerprints
    • reconstruct

      public String reconstruct()
      Display the pattern for diagnostics
      Overrides:
      reconstruct in class Pattern
    • toShortString

      public String toShortString()
      Description copied from class: Expression
      Produce a short string identifying the expression for use in error messages
      Overrides:
      toShortString in class Pattern
      Returns:
      a short string, sufficient to identify the expression
    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object other)
      Determine whether this pattern is the same as another pattern
      Overrides:
      equals in class Expression
      Parameters:
      other - the other object
      Returns:
      true if the other operand is an expression and if it can be determined that the two expressions are equivalent, in the sense that they will always return the same result.
    • computeHashCode

      protected int computeHashCode()
      Hashcode supporting equals()
      Overrides:
      computeHashCode in class Expression
      Returns:
      a computed hash code
    • convertToTypedPattern

      public Pattern convertToTypedPattern(String val) throws XPathException
      Convert the pattern to a typed pattern, in which an element name is treated as schema-element(N)
      Overrides:
      convertToTypedPattern in class Pattern
      Parameters:
      val - either "strict" or "lax" depending on the value of xsl:mode/@typed
      Returns:
      either the original pattern unchanged, or a new pattern as the result of the conversion
      Throws:
      XPathException - if the pattern cannot be converted
    • export

      public void export(ExpressionPresenter presenter) throws XPathException
      Description copied from class: Expression
      Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.
      Specified by:
      export in interface ExportAgent
      Specified by:
      export in class Pattern
      Parameters:
      presenter - the expression presenter used to display the structure
      Throws:
      XPathException - if the export fails, for example if an expression is found that won't work in the target environment.
    • copy

      public Pattern copy(RebindingMap rebindings)
      Copy a pattern. This makes a deep copy.
      Specified by:
      copy in class Pattern
      Parameters:
      rebindings - variables that need to be re-bound
      Returns:
      the copy of the original pattern
    • getNodeTest

      public NodeTest getNodeTest()
