Constructor Detail

### IdentityField

    public IdentityField(String xpath)

  Creates a new IdentityField.

  Parameters:
    `xpath` - the xpath for the IdentityField. Must not be null.

Method Detail

### getXPath

    public String getXPath()

  Returns the XPath of this IdentityField. This value will never be null.

  Returns:
    the XPath of this IdentityField.

### getSelection

    public Pattern getSelection()

  Get the compiled XPath expression

  Returns:
    the compiled XPath expression, as a Pattern object

### setXPath

    public void setXPath(String xpath)

  Sets the XPath expression for this Field.

  Parameters:
    `xpath` - the XPath expression for this IdentityField. Must not be null.

### setEquivalentExpression

    public void setEquivalentExpression(Expression exp)

  Sets the compiled XPath expression for this Field.

  Parameters:
    `exp` - the compiled XPath expression for this IdentityField. Must not be null.

### setSelection

    public void setSelection(Pattern selection)

  Set the compiled XPath expression

  Parameters:
    `selection` -

### setNamespaceContext

    public void setNamespaceContext(NamespaceResolver resolver)

  Set the namespace context. This is needed to allow the assertion to be serialized, so that the namespace context can be replicated when it is reloaded.

### getNamespaceContext

    public NamespaceResolver getNamespaceContext()

  Get the namespace context for evaluating the XPath expression

### setXPathDefaultNamespace

    public void setXPathDefaultNamespace(String uri)

  Set the XPath default namespace

  Parameters:
    `uri` - the XPath default namespace

### getXPathDefaultNamespace

    public String getXPathDefaultNamespace()

  Get the XPath default namespace

  Returns:
    the XPath default namespace

### getCardinality

    public int getCardinality(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                              ItemType contextItemType)
                       throws XPathException

  Get the static cardinality of the expression, that is the number of nodes the field xpath will select for each node selected by the selector xpath.

  Returns:
    the static cardinality
  Throws:
    `XPathException`
