org.dom4j.rule.pattern Class DefaultPattern
java.lang.Object org.dom4j.rule.pattern.DefaultPattern
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- NodeFilter, 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.

getMatchesNodeName()
For patterns which only match an ATTRIBUTE_NODE or an ELEMENT_NODE then this pattern may return the name of the element or attribute it matches. |

getPriority()
Returns the default resolution policy of the pattern according to the XSLT conflict resolution spec . |

getUnionPatterns()
If this pattern is a union pattern then this method should return an array of patterns which describe the union pattern, which should contain more than one pattern. |

matches
public boolean matches(Node node)
- Description copied from interface:
Pattern
- DOCUMENT ME!
- Parameters:
node
- DOCUMENT ME!- Returns:
- true if the pattern matches the given DOM4J node.
getPriority
public double getPriority()
- Description copied from interface:
Pattern
- Returns the default resolution policy of the pattern according to the XSLT conflict resolution
spec .
- Specified by:
getPriority
in interfacePattern
- Returns:
- DOCUMENT ME!
getUnionPatterns
public Pattern[] getUnionPatterns()
- Description copied from interface:
Pattern
- If this pattern is a union pattern then this method should return an
array of patterns which describe the union pattern, which should contain
more than one pattern. Otherwise this method should return null.
- Specified by:
getUnionPatterns
in interfacePattern
- Returns:
- an array of the patterns which make up this union pattern or null if this pattern is not a union pattern
getMatchType
public short getMatchType()
- Description copied from interface:
Pattern
- DOCUMENT ME!
- Specified by:
getMatchType
in interfacePattern
- Returns:
- the type of node the pattern matches which by default should return ANY_NODE if it can match any kind of node.
getMatchesNodeName
public String getMatchesNodeName()
- Description copied from interface:
Pattern
- For patterns which only match an ATTRIBUTE_NODE or an ELEMENT_NODE then
this pattern may return the name of the element or attribute it matches.
This allows a more efficient rule matching algorithm to be performed,
rather than a brute force approach of evaluating every pattern for a
given Node.
- Specified by:
getMatchesNodeName
in interfacePattern
- Returns:
- the name of the element or attribute this pattern matches or null if this pattern matches any or more than one name.
