org.dom4j.rule.pattern Class DefaultPattern

java.lang.Object
  org.dom4j.rule.pattern.DefaultPattern

All Implemented Interfaces:: NodeFilter, Pattern

public class DefaultPattern
extends Object
implements Pattern

DefaultPattern a default implementation of Pattern which can take any XPath implementation or NodeFilter for defining the pattern. WARNING this implementation causes a worst case, brute force XSLT rule evaluation to be performed. Wherever possible the methods getPriority(), getMatchType()and getMatchesNodeName()should be overloaded to allow more rule filtering to occur.
