Fields Summary
public static final short
CONTEXT_INCLUDE
Indicate that the current schema document is <include>d by another schema document.
public static final short
CONTEXT_REDEFINE
Indicate that the current schema document is <redefine>d by another schema document.
public static final short
CONTEXT_IMPORT
Indicate that the current schema document is <import>ed by another schema document.
public static final short
CONTEXT_PREPARSE
Indicate that the current schema document is being preparsed.
public static final short
CONTEXT_INSTANCE
Indicate that the parse of the current schema document is triggered by xsi:schemaLocation/noNamespaceSchemaLocation attribute(s) in the instance document. This value is only used if we don't defer the loading of schema documents.
public static final short
CONTEXT_ELEMENT
Indicate that the parse of the current schema document is triggered by the occurrence of an element whose namespace is the target namespace of this schema document. This value is only used if we do defer the loading of schema documents until a component from that namespace is referenced from the instance.
public static final short
CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE
Indicate that the parse of the current schema document is triggered by the occurrence of an attribute whose namespace is the target namespace of this schema document. This value is only used if we do defer the loading of schema documents until a component from that namespace is referenced from the instance.
public static final short
CONTEXT_XSITYPE
Indicate that the parse of the current schema document is triggered by the occurrence of an "xsi:type" attribute, whose value (a QName) has the target namespace of this schema document as its namespace. This value is only used if we do defer the loading of schema documents until a component from that namespace is referenced from the instance.

Methods Summary
public com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.xni.XMLAttributesgetAttributes()
If a call is triggered by an element/attribute/xsi:type in the instance, this call returns all attribute of such element (or enclosing element).

return
all attributes of the tiggering/enclosing element

public shortgetContextType()
Get the context. The returned value is one of the pre-defined CONTEXT_xxx constants.

return
the value indicating the context

public com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.xni.QNamegetEnclosingElementName()
If a call is triggered by an attribute or xsi:type, then this mehtod returns the enclosing element of such element.

return
the name of the enclosing element

public java.lang.String[]getLocationHints()
For import and references from the instance document, it's possible to have multiple hints for one namespace. So this method returns an array, which contains all location hints.

return
an array of all location hints associated to the expected target namespace

public java.lang.StringgetTargetNamespace()
If the context is "include" or "redefine", then return the target namespace of the enclosing schema document; otherwise, the expected target namespace of this document.

return
the expected/enclosing target namespace

public com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.xni.QNamegetTriggeringComponent()
If a call is triggered by an element/attribute/xsi:type in the instance, this call returns the name of such triggering component: the name of the element/attribute, or the value of the xsi:type.

return
the name of the triggering component
