Enum XPathExpressionResult

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<XPathExpressionResult>

com.consol.citrus.xml.xpath.XPathExpressionResult

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<XPathExpressionResult>

public enum XPathExpressionResult
extends Enum<XPathExpressionResult>

Enumeration representing the possible result types for XPath expression evaluation. In Citrus XPath expressions a prefix may determine the result type like this: string://MyExpressionString/Value number://MyExpressionString/Value boolean://MyExpressionString/Value The result type prefix is supposed to be stripped off before expression evaluation and determines the evaluation result.

Method Detail

values

public static XPathExpressionResult[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (XPathExpressionResult c : XPathExpressionResult.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static XPathExpressionResult valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

fromString

public static XPathExpressionResult fromString(String value,
                                               XPathExpressionResult defaultResult)

Get the enumeration value from an expression string. According to the leading prefix and a default result type the enumeration value is returned.

Parameters:

value -

Returns:

getAsQName

public QName getAsQName()

Get a constant QName instance from this enumerations value.

Returns:

cutOffPrefix

public static String cutOffPrefix(String expression)

Cut off the leading result type prefix in a XPath expression string.

Parameters:

expression -

Returns:
