Constructor Detail

XdmItem

public XdmItem()
Method Detail

getStringValue

public abstract String getStringValue()
Returns the string value.

Overrides:
getStringValue in class XdmSequence
Returns:
the string value.

getValue

public abstract Object getValue()
Returns the value itself.

Returns:
the value.

isValue

public abstract boolean isValue()
Flags, this item is a value as opposed to a node

Returns:
true, if this item is an XDMValue and not a node()

iterator

public XdmItemIterator iterator()
Description copied from class: XdmSequence
Returns an iterator over this XdmSequence.

Specified by:
iterator in interface Iterable<XdmItem>
Overrides:
iterator in class XdmSequence

first

public XdmItem first()
              throws RuntimeException
Description copied from class: XdmSequence
Returns the first item of this XdmSequence or throws a RuntimeException if sequence is empty.

Overrides:
first in class XdmSequence
Returns:
the first item of this sequence.
Throws:
RuntimeException - if the sequence is empty.

get

public XdmItem get(long nr)
Description copied from class: XdmSequence
Returns the n-th element of the sequence, counting by 1. Invoking this method will convert the underlying sequence to a materialized sequence which will take time and cost memory. See also size().

Overrides:
get in class XdmSequence
Parameters:
nr - the number of the element, based by 1!
Returns:
the element on the given position.

atomize

public AtomizingIterator atomize()
                          throws XPathException
Description copied from class: XdmSequence
Returns an AtomizingIterator which gives access to the atomized value of the elements in this sequence.

Overrides:
atomize in class XdmSequence
Returns:
an AtomizingIterator.
Throws:
XPathException - thrown, if the sequence contains elements which cannot be atomized.

size

public long size()
Description copied from class: XdmSequence
Returns the number of elements in this sequence. Invoking this method will convert the underlying sequence to a materialized sequence which will take time and cost memory. See also get(n).

Overrides:
size in class XdmSequence
Returns:
the number of elements in this sequence.

hasValues

public boolean hasValues()
Description copied from class: XdmSequence
Checks whether the sequences contains XdmValues as opposed to nodes.

Overrides:
hasValues in class XdmSequence
Returns:
true, if there is at least one value.

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()
Description copied from class: XdmSequence
Checks whether the sequence is empty.

Overrides:
isEmpty in class XdmSequence
Returns:
true, if the sequence is empty.

subSequence

public XdmSequence subSequence(long first,
                               Double length)
                        throws XPathException
Description copied from class: XdmSequence
Creates a new sequence which contains the element (first..length) of this sequence.

Overrides:
subSequence in class XdmSequence
Parameters:
first - the first element (counting by 1) to include.
length - the number of elements to include.
Returns:
a new sequence as a subsequence of this sequence.
Throws:
XPathException - thrown the sequence cannot be created.
