## org.apache.xpath.axes
Class WalkerFactory

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.xpath.axes.WalkerFactory

public class WalkerFactory
extends java.lang.Object

This class is both a factory for XPath location path expressions, which are built from the opcode map output, and an analysis engine for the location path expressions in order to provide optimization hints.
