Constructor Details

SingletonEnumeration

public SingletonEnumeration(NodeInfo node)

Method Details

getLastPosition

public int getLastPosition()
Get the last position
Specified by:
getLastPosition in interface AxisEnumeration
getLastPosition in interface LastPositionFinder

hasMoreElements

public boolean hasMoreElements()
Determine whether there are more nodes to come.
(Note the term "Element" is used here in the sense of the standard Java Enumeration class, it has nothing to do with XML elements).
Specified by:
hasMoreElements in interface AxisEnumeration
hasMoreElements in interface NodeEnumeration
Returns:
true if there are more nodes

isPeer

public boolean isPeer()
Determine whether the nodes returned by this enumeration are known to be peers, that is, no node is a descendant or ancestor of another node. This significance of this property is that if a peer enumeration is applied to each node in a set derived from another peer enumeration, and if both enumerations are sorted, then the result is also sorted.
Specified by:
isPeer in interface NodeEnumeration

isReverseSorted

public boolean isReverseSorted()
Determine whether the nodes returned by this enumeration are known to be in reverse document order.
Specified by:
isReverseSorted in interface NodeEnumeration
Returns:
true if the nodes are guaranteed to be in document order.

isSorted

public boolean isSorted()
Determine whether the nodes returned by this enumeration are known to be in document order
Specified by:
isSorted in interface NodeEnumeration
Returns:
true if the nodes are guaranteed to be in document order.

nextElement

public NodeInfo nextElement()
Get the next node in sequence.
(Note the term "Element" is used here in the sense of the standard Java Enumeration class, it has nothing to do with XML elements).
Specified by:
nextElement in interface AxisEnumeration
nextElement in interface NodeEnumeration
Returns:
the next NodeInfo
