XPathResult JDK 1.6)

Methods

public boolean getBooleanValue () throws XPathException

The value of this boolean result.

The value of this boolean result.
Throws:
- XPathException - TYPE_ERR: raised if resultType is not BOOLEAN_TYPE.

public boolean getInvalidIteratorState ()

Signifies that the iterator has become invalid.

Signifies that the iterator has become invalid. True if
resultType is UNORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE
or ORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE and the document has been
modified since this result was returned.

public double getNumberValue () throws XPathException

The value of this number result.

The value of this number result. If the native double type of the DOM
binding does not directly support the exact IEEE 754 result of the
XPath expression, then it is up to the definition of the binding
binding to specify how the XPath number is converted to the native
binding number.
Throws:
- XPathException - TYPE_ERR: raised if resultType is not NUMBER_TYPE.

public short getResultType ()

A code representing the type of this result, as defined by the type constants.

public Node getSingleNodeValue () throws XPathException

The value of this single node result, which may be null.

The value of this single node result, which may be null.
Throws:
- XPathException - TYPE_ERR: raised if resultType is not ANY_UNORDERED_NODE_TYPE or FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE.

public int getSnapshotLength () throws XPathException

The number of nodes in the result snapshot.

The number of nodes in the result snapshot. Valid values for
snapshotItem indices are 0 to
snapshotLength-1 inclusive.
Throws:
- XPathException - TYPE_ERR: raised if resultType is not UNORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE or ORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE.

public String getStringValue () throws XPathException

The value of this string result.

The value of this string result.
Throws:
- XPathException - TYPE_ERR: raised if resultType is not STRING_TYPE.

public Node iterateNext () throws XPathException DOMException

Iterates and returns the next node from the node set or nullif there are no more nodes.

Iterates and returns the next node from the node set or
nullif there are no more nodes.
Returns: Returns the next node.
Throws:
- XPathException - TYPE_ERR: raised if resultType is not UNORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE or ORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE.
- DOMException - INVALID_STATE_ERR: The document has been mutated since the result was returned.

public Node snapshotItem (int index) throws XPathException

Returns the indexth item in the snapshot collection.

Returns the indexth item in the snapshot collection. If
index is greater than or equal to the number of nodes in
the list, this method returns null. Unlike the iterator
result, the snapshot does not become invalid, but may not correspond
to the current document if it is mutated.
Returns: The node at the indexth position in the NodeList, or null if that is not a valid index.
Parameters:
- index - Index into the snapshot collection.
Throws:
- XPathException - TYPE_ERR: raised if resultType is not UNORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE or ORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE.

Fields

publicfinalstatic short ANY_TYPE = "0"

This code does not represent a specific type.

This code does not represent a specific type. An evaluation of an XPath
expression will never produce this type. If this type is requested,
then the evaluation returns whatever type naturally results from
evaluation of the expression.

If the natural result is a node set when ANY_TYPE was
requested, then UNORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE is always
the resulting type. Any other representation of a node set must be
explicitly requested.

publicfinalstatic short ANY_UNORDERED_NODE_TYPE = "8"

The result is a node set as defined by and will be accessed as a single node, which may be nullif the node set is empty.

The result is a node set as defined by and will be accessed as a
single node, which may be nullif the node set is empty.
Document modification does not invalidate the node, but may mean that
the result node no longer corresponds to the current document. This
is a convenience that permits optimization since the implementation
can stop once any node in the in the resulting set has been found.

If there are more than one node in the actual result, the single
node returned might not be the first in document order.

publicfinalstatic short BOOLEAN_TYPE = "3"

The result is a boolean as defined by .

publicfinalstatic short FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE = "9"

The result is a node set as defined by and will be accessed as a single node, which may be null if the node set is empty.

The result is a node set as defined by and will be accessed as a
single node, which may be null if the node set is empty.
Document modification does not invalidate the node, but may mean that
the result node no longer corresponds to the current document. This
is a convenience that permits optimization since the implementation
can stop once the first node in document order of the resulting set
has been found.

If there are more than one node in the actual result, the single
node returned will be the first in document order.

publicfinalstatic short NUMBER_TYPE = "1"

The result is a number as defined by .

publicfinalstatic short ORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE = "5"

The result is a node set as defined by that will be accessed iteratively, which will produce document-ordered nodes.

publicfinalstatic short ORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE = "7"

The result is a node set as defined by that will be accessed as a snapshot list of nodes that will be in original document order.

publicfinalstatic short STRING_TYPE = "2"

The result is a string as defined by .

publicfinalstatic short UNORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE = "4"

The result is a node set as defined by that will be accessed iteratively, which may not produce nodes in a particular order.

The result is a node set as defined by that will be accessed
iteratively, which may not produce nodes in a particular order.
Document modification invalidates the iteration.

This is the default type returned if the result is a node set and
ANY_TYPE is requested.

publicfinalstatic short UNORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE = "6"

The result is a node set as defined by that will be accessed as a snapshot list of nodes that may not be in a particular order.
