Class UntypedAtomizingIterator

java.lang.Object

net.sf.saxon.tree.iter.UntypedAtomizingIterator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable, LastPositionFinder, SequenceIterator<AtomicValue>, LookaheadIterator<AtomicValue>

public class UntypedAtomizingIterator
extends Object
implements SequenceIterator<AtomicValue>, LastPositionFinder, LookaheadIterator<AtomicValue>

AtomizingIterator returns the atomization of an underlying sequence supplied as an iterator. We use a specialist class rather than a general-purpose MappingIterator for performance, especially as the relationship of items in the result sequence to those in the base sequence is often one-to-one.

This UntypedAtomizingIterator is used only when it is known that the input sequence consists entirely of nodes, and that all nodes will be untyped.

Constructor Detail

UntypedAtomizingIterator

public UntypedAtomizingIterator(SequenceIterator base)

Construct an AtomizingIterator that will atomize the values returned by the base iterator.

Parameters:

base - the base iterator

Method Detail

next

public AtomicValue next()
                 throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: SequenceIterator

Get the next item in the sequence. This method changes the state of the iterator.

Specified by:

next in interface SequenceIterator<AtomicValue>

Returns:

the next item, or null if there are no more items. Once a call on next() has returned null, no further calls should be made. The preferred action for an iterator if subsequent calls on next() are made is to return null again, and all implementations within Saxon follow this rule.

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs retrieving the next item

close

public void close()

Description copied from interface: SequenceIterator

Close the iterator. This indicates to the supplier of the data that the client does not require any more items to be delivered by the iterator. This may enable the supplier to release resources. After calling close(), no further calls on the iterator should be made; if further calls are made, the effect of such calls is undefined.

For example, the iterator returned by the unparsed-text-lines() function has a close() method that causes the underlying input stream to be closed, whether or not the file has been read to completion.

Closing an iterator is important when the data is being "pushed" in another thread. Closing the iterator terminates that thread and means that it needs to do no additional work. Indeed, failing to close the iterator may cause the push thread to hang waiting for the buffer to be emptied.

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Specified by:

close in interface SequenceIterator<AtomicValue>

getProperties

public int getProperties()

Get properties of this iterator, as a bit-significant integer.

Specified by:

getProperties in interface SequenceIterator<AtomicValue>

Returns:

the properties of this iterator. This will be some combination of properties such as SequenceIterator.GROUNDED, SequenceIterator.LAST_POSITION_FINDER, and SequenceIterator.LOOKAHEAD. It is always acceptable to return the value zero, indicating that there are no known special properties. It is acceptable for the properties of the iterator to change depending on its state.

getLength

public int getLength()
              throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: LastPositionFinder

Get the last position (that is, the number of items in the sequence). This method is non-destructive: it does not change the state of the iterator. The result is undefined if the next() method of the iterator has already returned null. This method must not be called unless the result of getProperties() on the iterator includes the bit setting SequenceIterator.LAST_POSITION_FINDER

Specified by:

getLength in interface LastPositionFinder

Returns:

the number of items in the sequence

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs evaluating the sequence in order to determine the number of items

hasNext

public boolean hasNext()

Description copied from interface: LookaheadIterator

Determine whether there are more items to come. Note that this operation is stateless and it is not necessary (or usual) to call it before calling next(). It is used only when there is an explicit need to tell if we are at the last element.

This method must not be called unless the result of getProperties() on the iterator includes the bit setting SequenceIterator.LOOKAHEAD

Specified by:

hasNext in interface LookaheadIterator<AtomicValue>

Returns:

true if there are more items in the sequence
