Protected constructors
XPathFactory

Public methods
getFeature
abstract fun getFeature(name: String!): Boolean
Get the state of the named feature.
Feature names are fully qualified java.net.URI
s. Implementations may define their own features. An XPathFactoryConfigurationException
is thrown if this XPathFactory
or the XPath
s it creates cannot support the feature. It is possible for an XPathFactory
to expose a feature value but be unable to change its state.
Parameters | |
---|---|
name |
String!: Feature name. |
Return | |
---|---|
Boolean |
State of the named feature. |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactoryConfigurationException |
if this XPathFactory or the XPath s it creates cannot support this feature. |
java.lang.NullPointerException |
if name is null . |
isObjectModelSupported
abstract fun isObjectModelSupported(objectModel: String!): Boolean
Is specified object model supported by this XPathFactory
?
Parameters | |
---|---|
objectModel |
String!: Specifies the object model which the returned XPathFactory will understand. |
Return | |
---|---|
Boolean |
true if XPathFactory supports objectModel , else false . |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
java.lang.NullPointerException |
If objectModel is null . |
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException |
If objectModel.length() == 0 . |
newInstance
static fun newInstance(): XPathFactory!
Get a new XPathFactory
instance using the default object model, DEFAULT_OBJECT_MODEL_URI
, the W3C DOM.
This method is functionally equivalent to:
newInstance(DEFAULT_OBJECT_MODEL_URI)
Since the implementation for the W3C DOM is always available, this method will never fail.
Return | |
---|---|
XPathFactory! |
Instance of an XPathFactory . |
newInstance
static fun newInstance(uri: String!): XPathFactory!
Get a new XPathFactory
instance using the specified object model.
To find a XPathFactory
object, this method looks the following places in the following order where "the class loader" refers to the context class loader:
- If the system property
DEFAULT_PROPERTY_NAME
+ ":uri" is present, where uri is the parameter to this method, then its value is read as a class name. The method will try to create a new instance of this class by using the class loader, and returns it if it is successfully created. - ${java.home}/lib/jaxp.properties is read and the value associated with the key being the system property above is looked for. If present, the value is processed just like above.
- The class loader is asked for service provider provider-configuration files matching
javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory
in the resource directory META-INF/services. See the JAR File Specification for file format and parsing rules. Each potential service provider is required to implement the method:<code><a docref="javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory$isObjectModelSupported(kotlin.String)">#isObjectModelSupported(java.lang.String)</a></code>
The first service provider found in class loader order that supports the specified object model is returned. - Platform default
XPathFactory
is located in a platform specific way. There must be a platform default XPathFactory for the W3C DOM, i.e.DEFAULT_OBJECT_MODEL_URI
.
If everything fails, an XPathFactoryConfigurationException
will be thrown.
Tip for Trouble-shooting:
See java.util.Properties#load(java.io.InputStream)
for exactly how a property file is parsed. In particular, colons ':' need to be escaped in a property file, so make sure the URIs are properly escaped in it. For example:
http\://java.sun.com/jaxp/xpath/dom=org.acme.DomXPathFactory
Parameters | |
---|---|
uri |
String!: Identifies the underlying object model. The specification only defines the URI DEFAULT_OBJECT_MODEL_URI , http://java.sun.com/jaxp/xpath/dom for the W3C DOM, the org.w3c.dom package, and implementations are free to introduce other URIs for other object models. |
Return | |
---|---|
XPathFactory! |
Instance of an XPathFactory . |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactoryConfigurationException |
If the specified object model is unavailable. |
java.lang.NullPointerException |
If uri is null . |
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException |
If uri.length() == 0 . |
newInstance
open static fun newInstance(
uri: String!,
factoryClassName: String!,
classLoader: ClassLoader!
): XPathFactory!
Return | |
---|---|
XPathFactory! |
Instance of an XPathFactory . |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactoryConfigurationException |
If the specified object model is unavailable. |
java.lang.NullPointerException |
If uri is null . |
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException |
If uri.length() == 0 . |
newXPath
abstract fun newXPath(): XPath!
Return a new XPath
using the underlying object model determined when the XPathFactory
was instantiated.
Return | |
---|---|
XPath! |
New instance of an XPath . |
setFeature
abstract fun setFeature(
name: String!,
value: Boolean
): Unit
Set a feature for this XPathFactory
and XPath
s created by this factory.
Feature names are fully qualified java.net.URI
s. Implementations may define their own features. An XPathFactoryConfigurationException
is thrown if this XPathFactory
or the XPath
s it creates cannot support the feature. It is possible for an XPathFactory
to expose a feature value but be unable to change its state.
All implementations are required to support the javax.xml.XMLConstants#FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING
feature. When the feature is true
, any reference to an external function is an error. Under these conditions, the implementation must not call the XPathFunctionResolver
and must throw an XPathFunctionException
.
Parameters | |
---|---|
name |
String!: Feature name. |
value |
Boolean: Is feature state true or false . |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactoryConfigurationException |
if this XPathFactory or the XPath s it creates cannot support this feature. |
java.lang.NullPointerException |
if name is null . |
setXPathFunctionResolver
abstract fun setXPathFunctionResolver(resolver: XPathFunctionResolver!): Unit
Establish a default function resolver.
Any XPath
objects constructed from this factory will use the specified resolver by default.
A NullPointerException
is thrown if resolver
is null
.
Parameters | |
---|---|
resolver |
XPathFunctionResolver!: XPath function resolver. |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
java.lang.NullPointerException |
If resolver is null . |
setXPathVariableResolver
abstract fun setXPathVariableResolver(resolver: XPathVariableResolver!): Unit
Establish a default variable resolver.
Any XPath
objects constructed from this factory will use the specified resolver by default.
A NullPointerException
is thrown if resolver
is null
.
Parameters | |
---|---|
resolver |
XPathVariableResolver!: Variable resolver. |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
java.lang.NullPointerException |
If resolver is null . |
