public class NameTest
extends NodeTest

NodeTest is an interface that enables a test of whether a node has a particular name and type. A NameTest matches the node kind and the namespace URI and the local name.

Constructor Detail

NameTest

public NameTest(int nodeType,
                int nameCode)

NameTest

public NameTest(NodeInfo node)
Create a NameTest for nodes of the same type and name as a given node

Method Detail

matches

public boolean matches(int nodeType,
                       int nameCode,
                       int annotation)
Test whether this node test is satisfied by a given node

Specified by:
matches in class NodeTest
Parameters:
nodeType - The type of node to be matched
nameCode - identifies the expanded name of the node to be matched
annotation - The actual content type of the node

getDefaultPriority

public final double getDefaultPriority()
Determine the default priority of this node test when used on its own as a Pattern

Overrides:
getDefaultPriority in class Pattern

getFingerprint

public int getFingerprint()
Get the fingerprint required

Overrides:
getFingerprint in class Pattern
Returns:
A fingerprint that the nodes must match, or -1 if it can match multiple fingerprints

getNodeKind

public int getNodeKind()
Determine the types of nodes to which this pattern applies. Used for optimisation. For patterns that match nodes of several types, return Type.NODE

Overrides:
getNodeKind in class Pattern
Returns:
the type of node matched by this pattern. e.g. Type.ELEMENT or Type.TEXT

allowsTextNodes

public boolean allowsTextNodes()
Indicate whether this NodeTest is capable of matching text nodes

Specified by:
allowsTextNodes in class NodeTest

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
Description copied from interface: ItemType
Produce a representation of this type name for use in error messages. Where this is a QName, it will use conventional prefixes

Specified by:
toString in interface ItemType
Overrides:
toString in class Pattern
