createNSResolver

public XPathNSResolver createNSResolver(Node nodeResolver)

Adapts any DOM node to resolve namespaces so that an XPath expression can be easily evaluated relative to the context of the node where it appeared within the document.

Parameters:

nodeResolver - the node to be used as a context for namespace resolution

Returns:

an XPathNSResolver which resolves namespaces with respect to the definitions in scope for a specified node

evaluate

public XPathResult evaluate(String expression,
                   Object contextNodeObj,
                   Object resolver,
                   int type,
                   Object result)

Evaluates an XPath expression string and returns a result of the specified type if possible.

Parameters:

expression - the XPath expression string to be parsed and evaluated

contextNodeObj - the context node for the evaluation of this XPath expression

resolver - the resolver permits translation of all prefixes, including the XML namespace prefix, within the XPath expression into appropriate namespace URIs.

type - If a specific type is specified, then the result will be returned as the corresponding type

result - the result object which may be reused and returned by this method

Returns:

the result of the evaluation of the XPath expression
