+--com.icl.saxon.expr.SortKeyEnumeration
All Implemented Interfaces: LastPositionFinder , NodeEnumeration , Sortable
public final class SortKeyEnumeration extends java.lang.Objectimplements NodeEnumeration , LastPositionFinder , Sortable
A SortKeyEnumeration is NodeEnumeration that delivers the nodes sorted according to
a specified sort key.
Method Summary
int
compare (int a,
int b)
Compare two nodes in sorted sequence
(needed to implement the Sortable interface)
int
getLastPosition ()
Get the last position
boolean
hasMoreElements ()
Determine whether there are more nodes
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.
boolean
isReverseSorted ()
Determine whether the nodes returned by this enumeration are known to be in
reverse document order.
boolean
isSorted ()
Determine whether the nodes returned by this enumeration are known to be in document order
NodeInfo
nextElement ()
Get the next node, in sorted order
void
swap (int a,
int b)
Swap two nodes (needed to implement the Sortable interface)

hasMoreElements
public boolean hasMoreElements ()
Determine whether there are more nodes
Specified by: hasMoreElements
in interface NodeEnumeration
Following copied from interface: com.icl.saxon.om.NodeEnumeration
Returns: true if there are more nodes
nextElement
public NodeInfo nextElement ()
throws XPathException
Get the next node, in sorted order
Specified by: nextElement
in interface NodeEnumeration
Following copied from interface: com.icl.saxon.om.NodeEnumeration
Returns: the next NodeInfo
isSorted
public boolean isSorted ()
Description copied from interface: NodeEnumeration
Determine whether the nodes returned by this enumeration are known to be in document order
Specified by: isSorted
in interface NodeEnumeration
Following copied from interface: com.icl.saxon.om.NodeEnumeration
Returns: true if the nodes are guaranteed to be in document order.
isReverseSorted
public boolean isReverseSorted ()
Description copied from interface: NodeEnumeration
Determine whether the nodes returned by this enumeration are known to be in
reverse document order.
Specified by: isReverseSorted
in interface NodeEnumeration
Following copied from interface: com.icl.saxon.om.NodeEnumeration
Returns: true if the nodes are guaranteed to be in document order.
isPeer
public boolean isPeer ()
Description copied from interface: NodeEnumeration
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
getLastPosition
public int getLastPosition ()
throws XPathException
Description copied from interface: LastPositionFinder
Get the last position
Specified by: getLastPosition
in interface LastPositionFinder
compare
public int compare (int a,
int b)
Compare two nodes in sorted sequence
(needed to implement the Sortable interface)
Specified by: compare
in interface Sortable
Following copied from interface: com.icl.saxon.sort.Sortable
Returns: <0 if obj[a]0 if obj[a]>obj[b]
swap
public void swap (int a,
int b)
Swap two nodes (needed to implement the Sortable interface)
Specified by: swap
in interface Sortable
