Class EventAnnotationStripper

public class EventAnnotationStripper extends Object implements EventIterator

This class is an EventIterator that filters a stream of pull events setting the type annotation on element nodes to xs:untyped and on attribute nodes to xs:untypedAtomic
Constructor Summary
EventAnnotationStripper(EventIterator base)
Create an EventAnnotationStripper
Method Summary
booleanisFlatSequence()
Determine whether the EventIterator returns a flat sequence of events, or whether it can return nested event iterators
PullEventnext()
Get the next event in the sequence

Constructor Detail

EventAnnotationStripper

public EventAnnotationStripper(EventIterator base)
Create an EventAnnotationStripper

Parameters: base the stream of events whose type annotations are to be stripped (set to untyped)

Method Detail

isFlatSequence

public boolean isFlatSequence()
Determine whether the EventIterator returns a flat sequence of events, or whether it can return nested event iterators

Returns: true if the next() method is guaranteed never to return an EventIterator

next

public PullEvent next()
Get the next event in the sequence

Returns: the next event, or null when the sequence is exhausted. Note that since an EventIterator is itself a PullEvent, this method may return a nested iterator.

Throws: net.sf.saxon.trans.XPathException if a dynamic evaluation error occurs
