Interface ContextNodeList

All Known Implementing Classes:
  NodeSet

public interface ContextNodeList

**For advanced use only** Classes who implement this interface can be a current node list, also refered to here as a context node list.

Method Summary
`java.lang.Object` | `clone()` Get a clone of this iterator.
`NodeIterator` | `cloneWithReset()` Get a cloned Iterator that is reset to the start of the iteration.
`Node` | `getCurrentNode()` Get the current node.
`int` | `getCurrentPos()` Get the current position, which is one less than the next nextNode() call will retrieve.
`int` | `getLast()` Get the index of the last node in this list.
`boolean` | `isFresh()` Tells if this NodeSetDTM is "fresh", in other words, if the first nextNode() that is called will return the first node in the set.
`void` | `reset()` Reset the iterator.
`void` | `runTo(int index)` If an index is requested, NodeSetDTM will call this method to run the iterator to the index.
`void` | `setCurrentPos(int i)` Set the current position in the node set.
`void` | `setLast(int last)` Set the index of the last node in this list.
`void` | `setShouldCacheNodes(boolean b)` If setShouldCacheNodes(true) is called, then nodes will be cached.
`int` | `size()` Get the length of the list.

Method Detail

### getCurrentNode

    public Node getCurrentNode()

  Get the current node.
  Returns:
    The current node, or null.

### getCurrentPos

    public int getCurrentPos()

  Get the current position, which is one less than the next nextNode() call will retrieve. i.e. if you call getCurrentPos() and the return is 0, the next fetch will take place at index 1.
  Returns:
    The position of the current node in the current node list.

### reset

    public void reset()

  Reset the iterator.

### setShouldCacheNodes

    public void setShouldCacheNodes(boolean b)

  If setShouldCacheNodes(true) is called, then nodes will be cached. They are not cached by default.
  Parameters:
    `b` - true if the nodes should be cached.

### runTo

    public void runTo(int index)

  If an index is requested, NodeSetDTM will call this method to run the iterator to the index. By default this sets m_next to the index. If the index argument is -1, this signals that the iterator should be run to the end.
  Parameters:
    `index` - The index to run to, or -1 if the iterator should be run to the end.

### setCurrentPos

    public void setCurrentPos(int i)

  Set the current position in the node set.
  Parameters:
    `i` - Must be a valid index.

### size

    public int size()

  Get the length of the list.
  Returns:
    The number of nodes in this node list.

### isFresh

    public boolean isFresh()

  Tells if this NodeSetDTM is "fresh", in other words, if the first nextNode() that is called will return the first node in the set.
  Returns:
    true if the iteration of this list has not yet begun.

### cloneWithReset

    public NodeIterator cloneWithReset()
                                throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

  Get a cloned Iterator that is reset to the start of the iteration.
  Returns:
    A clone of this iteration that has been reset.
  Throws:
    java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException -

### clone

    public java.lang.Object clone()
                           throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

  Get a clone of this iterator. Be aware that this operation may be somewhat expensive.
  Returns:
    A clone of this object.
  Throws:
    java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException -

### getLast

    public int getLast()

  Get the index of the last node in this list.
  Returns:
    the index of the last node in this list.

### setLast

    public void setLast(int last)

  Set the index of the last node in this list.
  Parameters:
    `last` - the index of the last node in this list.
