PrefixResolverDefault

public class PrefixResolverDefault extends Object implements PrefixResolver
This class implements a generic PrefixResolver that can be used to perform prefix-to-namespace lookup for the XPath object.
xsl.usage
general

Fields Summary
Node
m_context
The context to resolve the prefix from, if the context is not given.
Constructors Summary
public PrefixResolverDefault(Node xpathExpressionContext)
Construct a PrefixResolverDefault object.

param
xpathExpressionContext The context from which XPath expression prefixes will be resolved. Warning: This will not work correctly if xpathExpressionContext is an attribute node.
param
xpathExpressionContext Node from which to start searching for a xmlns attribute that binds a prefix to a namespace (when the namespace context is not specified in the getNamespaceForPrefix call).

    m_context = xpathExpressionContext;
Methods Summary
public java.lang.StringgetBaseIdentifier()
Return the base identifier.

return
null

    return null;
public java.lang.StringgetNamespaceForPrefix(java.lang.String prefix)
Given a namespace, get the corrisponding prefix. This assumes that the PrevixResolver hold's it's own namespace context, or is a namespace context itself.

param
prefix Prefix to resolve.
return
Namespace that prefix resolves to, or null if prefix is not bound.

    return getNamespaceForPrefix(prefix, m_context);
public java.lang.StringgetNamespaceForPrefix(java.lang.String prefix, org.w3c.dom.Node namespaceContext)
Given a namespace, get the corrisponding prefix. 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.
