Class Navigator.DescendantEnumeration

java.lang.Object

net.sf.saxon.tree.util.Navigator.DescendantEnumeration

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Closeable, java.lang.AutoCloseable, SequenceIterator, AxisIterator, UnfailingIterator

Enclosing class:

Navigator

public static final class Navigator.DescendantEnumeration
extends java.lang.Object
implements AxisIterator

General-purpose implementation of the descendant and descendant-or-self axes, in terms of the child axis. But it also has the option to return the descendants in reverse document order; this is used when evaluating the preceding axis. Note that the includeSelf option should not be used when scanning in reverse order, as the self node will always be returned first.

Constructor Detail

DescendantEnumeration

public DescendantEnumeration(NodeInfo start,
                             boolean includeSelf,
                             boolean forwards)

Create an iterator over the descendant or descendant-or-self axis

Parameters:

start - the initial context node

includeSelf - true if the "self" node is to be included

forwards - true for a forwards iteration, false for reverse order
