JAXPPrefixResolver

public class JAXPPrefixResolver extends Object implements PrefixResolver
This class implements a Default PrefixResolver which can be used to perform prefix-to-namespace lookup for the XPath object. This class delegates the resolution to the passed NamespaceContext

Fields Summary
private NamespaceContext
namespaceContext
public static final String
S_XMLNAMESPACEURI
The URI for the XML namespace. (Duplicate of that found in com.sun.org.apache.xpath.internal.XPathContext).
Constructors Summary
public JAXPPrefixResolver(NamespaceContext nsContext)

        this.namespaceContext = nsContext;
Methods Summary
public java.lang.StringgetBaseIdentifier()
Return the base identifier.

return
null

        return null;
public java.lang.StringgetNamespaceForPrefix(java.lang.String prefix)

        return namespaceContext.getNamespaceURI( prefix );
public java.lang.StringgetNamespaceForPrefix(java.lang.String prefix, org.w3c.dom.Node namespaceContext)
Given a prefix and a Context Node, get the corresponding namespace. Warning: This will not work correctly if namespaceContext is an attribute node.

param
prefix Prefix to resolve.
param
namespaceContext Node from which to start searching for a xmlns attribute that binds a prefix to a namespace.
return
Namespace that prefix resolves to, or null if prefix is not bound.
