Description

The list of methods to do XML Node Path are organized into topic(s).

Method

StringgetNodesPathName(Node node)
Returns the path expression for a given node. 
final StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
buildNodeName(node, buffer);
return buffer.toString();
NodegetNXInfo(Node xmlDoc, String NXclassPath, String NXclassNameList, String fieldName, String filename)
Finds information in an XML document 
if (xmlDoc == null)
    return null;
NXclassPath = standardize_dot_sep_list(NXclassPath);
NXclassNameList = standardize_dot_sep_list(NXclassNameList);
if (filename != null && filename.length() < 1)
    filename = null;
if (fieldName != null && fieldName.length() < 1)
    fieldName = null;
...
NodegetNXInfo1(Node xmlDoc, String NXclassPath, String NXclassNameList, String fieldName, String filename)
Finds information in an XML document 
if (xmlDoc == null)
    return null;
NXclassPath = standardize_dot_sep_list(NXclassPath);
NXclassNameList = standardize_dot_sep_list(NXclassNameList);
if (filename != null && filename.length() < 1)
    filename = null;
NodeList children = xmlDoc.getChildNodes();
if (children.getLength() == 1)
...
NodegetNXInfoDefault(Node xmlDoc, String NXclassPath, String NXclassNameList, String fieldName, String filename)
Same as getNXInfo except that It checks general first( NXclassNameList is "") then repeatedly add elements of the NXclassNameList and/or field name , then does the same with the runs node 
if (NXclassPath == null)
    return null;
if (xmlDoc == null)
    return null;
NXclassNameList = standardize_dot_sep_list(NXclassNameList);
fieldName = standardize_dot_sep_list(fieldName);
Node N = getNXInfo(xmlDoc, NXclassPath, "", fieldName, "");
int i = 1;
...
StringgetPath(Node n)
get Path 
String path = "";
while (n != null) {
    path = "/" + getPathElement(n) + path;
    n = getParent(n);
return path;
StringgetPath(Node node)
get Path 
NamedNodeMap nodeMap = node.getAttributes();
Node pathNode = nodeMap.getNamedItem("path");
if (pathNode != null) {
    return pathNode.getNodeValue();
} else
    return null;
StringgetValueViaPath(Node node, String path)
Get the value of a node specified by a starting node and a path string. 
if (node instanceof Document)
    node = ((Document) node).getDocumentElement();
if (!(node instanceof Element))
    return "";
path = path.trim();
int kAtsign = path.indexOf("@");
if (kAtsign == -1) {
    Element target = getElementViaPath(node, path);
...
StringgetValueViaPath(Node node, String path)
Get the value of a node specified by a starting node and a path string. 
if (node instanceof Document)
    node = ((Document) node).getDocumentElement();
if (!(node instanceof Element))
    return "";
path = path.trim();
int kAtsign = path.indexOf("@");
if (kAtsign == -1) {
    Element target = getElementViaPath(node, path);
...
VectorgetVectorPathFromNode(Node node)
get Vector Path From Node 
Vector path = new Vector();
while (node != null) {
    path.insertElementAt(node, 0);
    node = node.getParentNode();
return path;
VectorgetVectorPathFromNode(Node node)
get Vector Path From Node 
Vector path = new Vector();
while (node != null) {
    path.insertElementAt(node, 0);
    node = node.getParentNode();
return path;
