Package	Description
net.sf.saxon.tree	This package contains classes and sub-packages used to implement Saxon's various tree models including the linked tree and tiny tree.
net.sf.saxon.tree.iter	This package defines implementations and subinterfaces of the interface SequenceIterator, which is used to iterate over an XDM sequence.
net.sf.saxon.tree.jiter	This package defines utility classes designed to work with Java iterators, that is, implementations of java.util.Iterator (not to be confused with Saxon's SequenceIterator class).
net.sf.saxon.tree.linked	This package defines the implementation of the so-called "linked tree" structure.
net.sf.saxon.tree.tiny	This package is an implementation of the Saxon internal tree structure, designed to minimize memory usage, and the costs of allocating and garbage-collecting Java objects.
net.sf.saxon.tree.wrapper	This package provides a number of classes supporting the general capability to wrap external XML tree models as instances of the Saxon NodeInfo interface, making them amenable to XPath processing

Class	Description
AttributeCollectionImpl	AttributeCollectionImpl is an implementation of the SAX2 interface Attributes.
DocumentNumberAllocator	This class (which has one instance per Configuration) is used to allocate unique document numbers.
IndexedStack<T>	This class replicates functionality that is available in a Java Stack, but not in a C# Stack, for example the ability to access elements by direct index (0-based, counting from the bottom of the stack).
NamespaceResolverWithDefault	This class is a NamespaceResolver that modifies an underyling NamespaceResolver by changing the mapping of the null prefix to be a specified namespace, rather than the one used by the underlying namespace resolver.
Navigator	The Navigator class provides helper classes for navigating a tree, irrespective of its implementation
Navigator.AncestorEnumeration	General-purpose implementation of the ancestor and ancestor-or-self axes
Navigator.AxisFilter	AxisFilter is an iterator that applies a NodeTest filter to the nodes returned by an underlying AxisIterator.
Navigator.ChildrenAsIterable	A class that delivers the children of a node as a Java Iterable
Navigator.DescendantEnumeration	General-purpose implementation of the descendant and descendant-or-self axes, in terms of the child axis.
Navigator.EmptyTextFilter	EmptyTextFilter is an iterator that applies removes any zero-length text nodes returned by an underlying AxisIterator.
Navigator.FollowingEnumeration	General purpose implementation of the following axis, in terms of the ancestor, child, and following-sibling axes
Navigator.PrecedingEnumeration	Helper method to iterate over the preceding axis, or Saxon's internal preceding-or-ancestor axis, by making use of the ancestor, descendant, and preceding-sibling axes.
Orphan	A node (implementing the NodeInfo interface) representing an attribute, text node, comment, processing instruction, or namespace that has no parent (and of course no children).
ProcInstParser	ProcInstParser is used to parse pseudo-attributes within Processing Instructions.
SteppingNavigator	The SteppingNavigator is a utility class containing methods to assist with navigating a tree whose nodes implement the SteppingNode interface
SteppingNavigator.DescendantAxisIterator	An iterator over the descendant or descendant-or-self axis
SteppingNode	This interface can be implemented by an implementation of NodeInfo to take advantage of a generic implementation of the descendant axis found in class SteppingNavigator
