Constructor Detail

DocumentWrapperXPathNode

public DocumentWrapperXPathNode(Document document)

Creates a new DocumentWrapperXPathNode

Parameters: prefix The namespace prefix

Returns: The namespace URI, or null

getNodeType

public int getNodeType()

Returns the type of this node.

Returns: The type of this node

getRootNode

public XPathNode getRootNode()

Returns the root node.

Returns: The root node

getStringValue

public String getStringValue()

Returns the string value of the node. The string value of a text node or an attribute node is it's text value. The string value of an element or a root node is the concatenation of the string value of all its child nodes. The string value of a namespace node is its namespace URI. The string value of a processing instruction is the instruction, and the string value of a comment is the comment text.

Returns: The string value of the node
