public class Location
extends java.lang.Object

This class holds constants identifying different kinds of location in a source stylesheet or query. These constants are used in the getConstructType() method of class InstructionInfo. Some of these locations represent points where the dynamic context changes, and they are therefore recorded as such on the context stack. Some of the locations represent points in the evaluation of a stylesheet (or query or XPath expression) that are notified to the trace listener. Some fulfil both roles.

Any constant used in `StandardNames` can be used as a Location. Such names are generally used to identify XSLT instructions. They are also used for equivalent constructs in XQuery, for example XSL_ELEMENT is used for a computed element constructor in XQuery. The constants in StandardNames are all in the range 0-1023, so constants defined in this class are outside this range.

The constants in this file are annotated with Q to indicate they can appear in XQuery trace output, T to indicate they can appear in XSLT trace output, and/or C to indicate that they can appear on the dynamic context stack.
