Constructor Detail

ArrayIterator

public ArrayIterator(Item[] nodes)

Create an iterator over all the items in an array

Parameters:

nodes - the array (of any items, not necessarily nodes) to be processed by the iterator

ArrayIterator

public ArrayIterator(Item[] nodes,
                     int start,
                     int end)

Create an iterator over a range of an array. Note that the start position is zero-based

Parameters:

nodes - the array (of nodes or simple values) to be processed by the iterator

start - the position of the first item to be processed (numbering from zero). Must be between zero and nodes.length-1; if not, undefined exceptions are likely to occur.

end - position of first item that is NOT returned, zero-based. Must be beween 1 and nodes.length; if not, undefined exceptions are likely to occur.

Method Detail

makeSliceIterator

public SequenceIterator makeSliceIterator(int min,
                                          int max)

Create a new ArrayIterator over the same items, with a different start point and end point

Parameters:

min - the start position (1-based) of the new ArrayIterator relative to the original

max - the end position (1-based) of the last item to be delivered by the new ArrayIterator, relative to the original. For example, min=2, max=3 delivers the two items ($base[2], $base[3]). Set this to Integer.MAX_VALUE if there is no end limit.

hasNext

public boolean hasNext()

Test whether there are any more items

Specified by:

hasNext in interface LookaheadIterator

Returns:

true if there are more items

next

public Item next()

Get the next item in the array

Specified by:

next in interface AxisIterator

Specified by:

next in interface SequenceIterator

Returns:

the next item in the array

current

public Item current()

Get the current item in the array

Specified by:

current in interface AxisIterator

Specified by:

current in interface SequenceIterator

Returns:

the item returned by the most recent call of next()

position

public int position()

Get the position of the current item in the array

Specified by:

position in interface AxisIterator

Specified by:

position in interface SequenceIterator

Returns:

the current position (starting at 1 for the first item)

getLastPosition

public int getLastPosition()

Get the number of items in the part of the array being processed

Specified by:

getLastPosition in interface LastPositionFinder

Returns:

the number of items; equivalently, the position of the last item

getAnother

public SequenceIterator getAnother()

Get another iterator over the same items

Specified by:

getAnother in interface AxisIterator

Specified by:

getAnother in interface SequenceIterator

Returns:

a new ArrayIterator

getReverseIterator

public SequenceIterator getReverseIterator()

Get an iterator that processes the same items in reverse order

Specified by:

getReverseIterator in interface ReversibleIterator

Returns:

a new ArrayIterator

getArray

public Item[] getArray()

Get the underlying array

Returns:

the underlying array being processed by the iterator

getStartPosition

public int getStartPosition()

Get the initial start position

Returns:

the start position of the iterator in the array (zero-based)

getEndPosition

public int getEndPosition()

Get the end position in the array

Returns:

the position in the array (zero-based) of the first item not included in the iteration

materialize

public Value materialize()

Return a SequenceValue containing all the items in the sequence returned by this SequenceIterator

Specified by:

materialize in interface GroundedIterator

Returns:

the corresponding SequenceValue

getProperties

public int getProperties()

Get properties of this iterator, as a bit-significant integer.

Specified by:

getProperties in interface SequenceIterator

Returns:

the properties of this iterator. This will be some combination of properties such as SequenceIterator.GROUNDED, SequenceIterator.LAST_POSITION_FINDER, and SequenceIterator.LOOKAHEAD. It is always acceptable to return the value zero, indicating that there are no known special properties. It is acceptable for the properties of the iterator to change depending on its state.
