Constructor Detail

### DTMDefaultBase

    public DTMDefaultBase(DTMManager mgr,
                          Source source,
                          int dtmIdentity,
                          DTMWSFilter whiteSpaceFilter,
                          XMLStringFactory xstringfactory,
                          boolean doIndexing)

  Construct a DTMDefaultBase object from a DOM node.
  Parameters:
    `mgr` - The DTMManager who owns this DTM.
    `domSource` - the DOM source that this DTM will wrap.
    `source` - The object that is used to specify the construction source.
    `dtmIdentity` - The DTM identity ID for this DTM.
    `whiteSpaceFilter` - The white space filter for this DTM, which may be null.
    `xstringfactory` - The factory to use for creating XMLStrings.
    `doIndexing` - true if the caller considers it worth it to use indexing schemes.

Method Detail

### dumpDTM

    public void dumpDTM(java.io.OutputStream os)

  Diagnostics function to dump the DTM.

### dumpNode

    public java.lang.String dumpNode(int nodeHandle)

  Diagnostics function to dump a single node. %REVIEW% KNOWN GLITCH: If you pass it a node index rather than a node handle, it works just fine... but the displayed identity number before the colon is different, which complicates comparing it with nodes printed the other way. We could always OR the DTM ID into the value, to suppress that distinction... %REVIEW% This might want to be moved up to DTMDefaultBase, or possibly DTM itself, since it's a useful diagnostic and uses only DTM's public APIs.

### setFeature

    public void setFeature(java.lang.String featureId,
                           boolean state)

  Set an implementation dependent feature.

  %REVIEW% Do we really expect to set features on DTMs?

  Specified by:
    setFeature in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `featureId` - A feature URL.
    `state` - true if this feature should be on, false otherwise.

### hasChildNodes

    public boolean hasChildNodes(int nodeHandle)

  Given a node handle, test if it has child nodes.

  %REVIEW% This is obviously useful at the DOM layer, where it would permit testing this without having to create a proxy node. It's less useful in the DTM API, where (dtm.getFirstChild(nodeHandle)!=DTM.NULL) is just as fast and almost as self-evident. But it's a convenience, and eases porting of DOM code to DTM.

  Specified by:
    hasChildNodes in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `nodeHandle` - int Handle of the node.
  Returns:
    int true if the given node has child nodes.

### getFirstChild

    public int getFirstChild(int nodeHandle)

  Given a node handle, get the handle of the node's first child. If not yet resolved, waits for more nodes to be added to the document and tries again.
  Specified by:
    getFirstChild in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `nodeHandle` - int Handle of the node.
  Returns:
    int DTM node-number of first child, or DTM.NULL to indicate none exists.

### getLastChild

    public int getLastChild(int nodeHandle)

  Given a node handle, advance to its last child. If not yet resolved, waits for more nodes to be added to the document and tries again.
  Specified by:
    getLastChild in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `nodeHandle` - int Handle of the node.
  Returns:
    int Node-number of last child, or DTM.NULL to indicate none exists.

  Retrieves an attribute node by by qualified name and namespace URI.
  Specified by:
    getAttributeNode in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `nodeHandle` - int Handle of the node upon which to look up this attribute..
    `namespaceURI` - The namespace URI of the attribute to retrieve, or null.

    int Node-number of next sibling, or DTM.NULL to indicate none exists.

### getPreviousSibling

    public int getPreviousSibling(int nodeHandle)

  Given a node handle, find its preceeding sibling. WARNING: DTM is asymmetric; this operation is resolved by search, and is relatively expensive.
  Specified by:
    getPreviousSibling in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `nodeHandle` - the id of the node.
  Returns:
    int Node-number of the previous sib, or DTM.NULL to indicate none exists.

### getNextAttribute

    `nodeHandle` - handle to node, which should probably be an element node, but need not be.
    `inScope` - true if all namespaces in scope should be returned, false if only the namespace declarations should be returned.
  Returns:
    handle of first namespace, or DTM.NULL to indicate none exists.

### getNextNamespaceNode

  Given a namespace handle, advance to the next namespace.
  Specified by:
    getNextNamespaceNode in interface DTM
  Parameters:

    `namespaceHandle` - handle to node which must be of type NAMESPACE_NODE.
    `nodeHandle` - A namespace handle for which we will find the next node.
    `inScope` - true if all namespaces that are in scope should be processed, otherwise just process the nodes in the given element handle.

  Specified by:
    getDocument in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `nodeHandle` - the id of the node.
  Returns:
    int Node handle of document, which should always be valid.

### getOwnerDocument

    public int getOwnerDocument(int nodeHandle)

  Given a node handle, find the owning document node. This has the exact same semantics as the DOM Document method of the same name, in that if the nodeHandle is a document node, it will return NULL.

  %REVIEW% Since this is DOM-specific, it may belong at the DOM binding layer. Included here as a convenience function and to aid porting of DOM code to DTM.

  Specified by:
    getOwnerDocument in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `nodeHandle` - the id of the node.
  Returns:
    int Node handle of owning document, or -1 if the node was a Docment

  Return an indication of whether the processor has read the complete DTD. Its value is a boolean. If it is false, then certain properties (indicated in their descriptions below) may be unknown. If it is true, those properties are never unknown.
  Specified by:
    getDocumentAllDeclarationsProcessed in interface DTM
  Returns:
    `true` if all declarations were processed; `false` otherwise.

### getDocumentTypeDeclarationSystemIdentifier

    public abstract java.lang.String getDocumentTypeDeclarationSystemIdentifier()

  A document type declaration information item has the following properties: 1. [system identifier] The system identifier of the external subset, if it exists. Otherwise this property has no value.
  Specified by:
    getDocumentTypeDeclarationSystemIdentifier in interface DTM
  Returns:
    the system identifier String object, or null if there is none.

### getDocumentTypeDeclarationPublicIdentifier

    public abstract java.lang.String getDocumentTypeDeclarationPublicIdentifier()

  Return the public identifier of the external subset, normalized as described in 4.2.2 External Entities [XML]. If there is no external subset or if it has no public identifier, this property has no value.
  Specified by:
    getDocumentTypeDeclarationPublicIdentifier in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `the` - document type declaration handle
  Returns:
    the public identifier String object, or null if there is none.

### getElementById

    public abstract int getElementById(java.lang.String elementId)

  Returns the `Element` whose `ID` is given by `elementId`. If no such element exists, returns `DTM.NULL`. Behavior is not defined if more than one element has this `ID`. Attributes (including those with the name "ID") are not of type ID unless so defined by DTD/Schema information available to the DTM implementation. Implementations that do not know whether attributes are of type ID or not are expected to return `DTM.NULL`.

  %REVIEW% Presumably IDs are still scoped to a single document, and this operation searches only within a single document, right? Wouldn't want collisions between DTMs in the same process.

  Specified by:
    getElementById in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `elementId` - The unique `id` value for an element.
  Returns:
    The handle of the matching element.

### getUnparsedEntityURI

    public abstract java.lang.String getUnparsedEntityURI(java.lang.String name)

  The getUnparsedEntityURI function returns the URI of the unparsed entity with the specified name in the same document as the context node (see [3.3 Unparsed Entities]). It returns the empty string if there is no such entity.

  XML processors may choose to use the System Identifier (if one is provided) to resolve the entity, rather than the URI in the Public Identifier. The details are dependent on the processor, and we would have to support some form of plug-in resolver to handle this properly. Currently, we simply return the System Identifier if present, and hope that it a usable URI or that our caller can map it to one. TODO: Resolve Public Identifiers... or consider changing function name.

  If we find a relative URI reference, XML expects it to be resolved in terms of the base URI of the document. The DOM doesn't do that for us, and it isn't entirely clear whether that should be done here; currently that's pushed up to a higher level of our application. (Note that DOM Level 1 didn't store the document's base URI.) TODO: Consider resolving Relative URIs.

  (The DOM's statement that "An XML processor may choose to completely expand entities before the structure model is passed to the DOM" refers only to parsed entities, not unparsed, and hence doesn't affect this function.)

  Specified by:
    getUnparsedEntityURI in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `name` - A string containing the Entity Name of the unparsed entity.
  Returns:
    String containing the URI of the Unparsed Entity, or an empty string if no such entity exists.

### supportsPreStripping

    public boolean supportsPreStripping()

  Return true if the xsl:strip-space or xsl:preserve-space was processed during construction of the DTM document.
  Specified by:
    supportsPreStripping in interface DTM
  Returns:
    true if this DTM supports prestripping.

### isNodeAfter

    public boolean isNodeAfter(int nodeHandle1,
                               int nodeHandle2)

  Figure out whether nodeHandle2 should be considered as being later in the document than nodeHandle1, in Document Order as defined by the XPath model. This may not agree with the ordering defined by other XML applications.

  There are some cases where ordering isn't defined, and neither are the results of this function -- though we'll generally return false.

  Specified by:
    isNodeAfter in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `nodeHandle1` - Node handle to perform position comparison on.
    `nodeHandle2` - Second Node handle to perform position comparison on .
  Returns:
    true if node1 comes before node2, otherwise return false. You can think of this as `(node1.documentOrderPosition <= node2.documentOrderPosition)`.

### isCharacterElementContentWhitespace

    public boolean isCharacterElementContentWhitespace(int nodeHandle)

  2. [element content whitespace] A boolean indicating whether the character is white space appearing within element content (see [XML], 2.10 "White Space Handling"). Note that validating XML processors are required by XML 1.0 to provide this information. If there is no declaration for the containing element, this property has no value for white space characters. If no declaration has been read, but the [all declarations processed] property of the document information item is false (so there may be an unread declaration), then the value of this property is unknown for white space characters. It is always false for characters that are not white space.
  Specified by:
    isCharacterElementContentWhitespace in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `nodeHandle` - the node ID.
  Returns:
    `true` if the character data is whitespace; `false` otherwise.

### isDocumentAllDeclarationsProcessed

    public boolean isDocumentAllDeclarationsProcessed(int documentHandle)

  10. [all declarations processed] This property is not strictly speaking part of the infoset of the document. Rather it is an indication of whether the processor has read the complete DTD. Its value is a boolean. If it is false, then certain properties (indicated in their descriptions below) may be unknown. If it is true, those properties are never unknown.
  Specified by:
    isDocumentAllDeclarationsProcessed in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `the` - document handle
    `documentHandle` - A node handle that must identify a document.
  Returns:
    `true` if all declarations were processed; `false` otherwise.

### isAttributeSpecified

    public abstract boolean isAttributeSpecified(int attributeHandle)

  5. [specified] A flag indicating whether this attribute was actually specified in the start-tag of its element, or was defaulted from the DTD.
  Specified by:
    isAttributeSpecified in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `attributeHandle` - The attribute handle in question.
  Returns:
    `true` if the attribute was specified; `false` if it was defaulted.

### dispatchCharactersEvents

    public abstract void dispatchCharactersEvents(int nodeHandle,

  Directly call the characters method on the passed ContentHandler for the string-value of the given node (see http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath#data-model for the definition of a node's string-value). Multiple calls to the ContentHandler's characters methods may well occur for a single call to this method.
  Specified by:
    dispatchCharactersEvents in interface DTM
  Parameters:
    `nodeHandle` - The node ID.
    `ch` - A non-null reference to a ContentHandler.
    `normalize` - true if the content should be normalized according to the rules for the XPath normalize-space function.
  Throws:
    SAXException -

### dispatchToEvents

    public abstract void dispatchToEvents(int nodeHandle,
                                          ContentHandler ch)
                                   throws SAXException

  Parameters:
    `str` - Non-null reverence to a string.

### documentRegistration

  Returns:
    a DTMManager, or null if this is a "stand-alone" DTM.

### getDTMIDs

    public SuballocatedIntVector getDTMIDs()

  Query which DTMIDs this DTM is currently using within the DTMManager. %REVEW% Should this become part of the base DTM API?
