Class ConfigurationNodeIteratorBase

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.commons.configuration.tree.xpath.ConfigurationNodeIteratorBase

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.apache.commons.jxpath.ri.model.NodeIterator

Direct Known Subclasses:

ConfigurationNodeIteratorAttribute, ConfigurationNodeIteratorChildren

abstract class ConfigurationNodeIteratorBase

extends Object

implements org.apache.commons.jxpath.ri.model.NodeIterator

A base class for implementing iterators over configuration nodes.

This class already provides common functionality for implementing the iteration process. Derived classes will implement specific behavior based on the concrete node type (child node or attribute node).

Since:

1.3

Constructor Detail

ConfigurationNodeIteratorBase

protected ConfigurationNodeIteratorBase(org.apache.commons.jxpath.ri.model.NodePointer parent,
                                        boolean reverse)

Creates a new instance of ConfigurationNodeIteratorBase and initializes it.

Parameters:

parent - the parent pointer

reverse - the reverse flag

Method Detail

getPosition

public int getPosition()

Returns the position of the iteration.

Specified by:

getPosition in interface org.apache.commons.jxpath.ri.model.NodeIterator

Returns:

the position

setPosition

public boolean setPosition(int pos)

Sets the position of the iteration.

Specified by:

setPosition in interface org.apache.commons.jxpath.ri.model.NodeIterator

Parameters:

pos - the new position

Returns:

a flag if this is a valid position

getNodePointer

public org.apache.commons.jxpath.ri.model.NodePointer getNodePointer()

Returns the current node pointer.

Specified by:

getNodePointer in interface org.apache.commons.jxpath.ri.model.NodeIterator

Returns:

the current pointer in this iteration

getParent

protected org.apache.commons.jxpath.ri.model.NodePointer getParent()

Returns the parent node pointer.

Returns:

the parent node pointer

getStartOffset

protected int getStartOffset()

Returns the start offset of the iteration.

Returns:

the start offset

setStartOffset

protected void setStartOffset(int startOffset)

Sets the start offset of the iteration. This is used when a start element was set.

Parameters:

startOffset - the start offset

initSubNodeList

protected void initSubNodeList(List nodes)

Initializes the list of sub nodes for the iteration. This method must be called during initialization phase.

Parameters:

nodes - the list with the sub nodes

getMaxPosition

protected int getMaxPosition()

Returns the maximum position for this iterator.

Returns:

the maximum allowed position

createNodePointer

protected org.apache.commons.jxpath.ri.model.NodePointer createNodePointer(ConfigurationNode node)

Creates the configuration node pointer for the current position. This method is called by getNodePointer(). Derived classes must create the correct pointer object.

Parameters:

node - the current configuration node

Returns:

the node pointer

positionToIndex

protected int positionToIndex(int pos)

Returns the index in the data list for the given position. This method also checks the reverse flag.

Parameters:

pos - the position (1-based)

Returns:

the corresponding list index
