xpathparser

Value Members

1. package ast

   

   Abstract syntax tree of XPath expressions, as produced by the parsers specified in the 'parse' package.

2. package common

   

   Common classes for expanded names and qualified names.

   Common classes for expanded names and qualified names. Copied (and "trimmed") from the yaidom project, with permission. Conversion from and to the yaidom counterparts is trivial, for example through the string representation.

3. package parse

   

   FastParse parser of XPath expressions, returning AST objects from the 'ast' package if successful.

4. package queryapi

   

   Query API, as offered by the AST classes.

   Query API, as offered by the AST classes. It is inspired by the yaidom project.

   The query API methods may be somewhat verbose, but that is intentional. First of all, there are multiple different "axes" that can be used in queries, such as child elements, descendant elements or descendant-or-self elements (if we consider only forward axes). Second, when querying for elements of specific types, there is something to be said for having normal parameters for those types, instead of (more hidden) type parameters.

5. package util

   

   Utilities on top of the xpathparser API.
