All Implemented Interfaces:

Enclosing class:
Remove

public static class Remove.RemoveIterator extends Object implements SequenceIterator, LastPositionFinder
An implementation of SequenceIterator that returns all items except the one at a specified position.

  • Constructor Details

      public RemoveIterator(SequenceIterator base, int removePosition)
  • Method Details

    • next

      public Item next() throws XPathException
      Description copied from interface: SequenceIterator
      Get the next item in the sequence. This method changes the state of the iterator.
      Specified by:
      next in interface SequenceIterator
      Returns:
      the next item, or null if there are no more items. Once a call on next() has returned null, no further calls should be made. The preferred action for an iterator if subsequent calls on next() are made is to return null again, and all implementations within Saxon follow this rule.
      Throws:
      XPathException - if an error occurs retrieving the next item
    • close

      public void close()
      Description copied from interface: SequenceIterator
      Close the iterator. This indicates to the supplier of the data that the client does not require any more items to be delivered by the iterator. This may enable the supplier to release resources. After calling close(), no further calls on the iterator should be made; if further calls are made, the effect of such calls is undefined.

      For example, the iterator returned by the unparsed-text-lines() function has a close() method that causes the underlying input stream to be closed, whether or not the file has been read to completion.

      Closing an iterator is important when the data is being "pushed" in another thread. Closing the iterator terminates that thread and means that it needs to do no additional work. Indeed, failing to close the iterator may cause the push thread to hang waiting for the buffer to be emptied.

      Specified by:
      close in interface AutoCloseable
      Specified by:
      close in interface Closeable
      Specified by:
      close in interface SequenceIterator
    • getLength

      public int getLength() throws XPathException
      Get the last position (that is, the number of items in the sequence). This method is non-destructive: it does not change the state of the iterator. The result is undefined if the next() method of the iterator has already returned null.
      Specified by:
      getLength in interface LastPositionFinder
      Returns:
      the number of items in the sequence
      Throws:
      XPathException - if an error occurs evaluating the sequence in order to determine the number of items
    • getProperties

      public EnumSet<SequenceIterator.Property> getProperties()
      Get properties of this iterator, as a bit-significant integer.
      Specified by:
      getProperties in interface SequenceIterator
      Returns:
      the properties of this iterator. This will be some combination of properties such as SequenceIterator.Property.GROUNDED, SequenceIterator.Property.LAST_POSITION_FINDER, and SequenceIterator.Property.LOOKAHEAD. It is always acceptable to return the value zero, indicating that there are no known special properties. It is acceptable for the properties of the iterator to change depending on its state.
