Constructor Detail

SingleAtomicIterator

public SingleAtomicIterator(AtomicValue value)

Private constructor: external classes should use the factory method

Parameters:

value - the item to iterate over

Method Detail

getReverseIterator

public SingleAtomicIterator getReverseIterator()

Description copied from interface: ReversibleIterator

Get a new SequenceIterator that returns the same items in reverse order. If this SequenceIterator is an AxisIterator, then the returned SequenceIterator must also be an AxisIterator.

Specified by:

getReverseIterator in interface ReversibleIterator

Overrides:

getReverseIterator in class SingletonIterator

Returns:

an iterator over the items in reverse order

next

public AtomicValue next()

Description copied from interface: SequenceIterator

Get the next item in the sequence. This method changes the state of the iterator.

Specified by:

next in interface SequenceIterator

Specified by:

next in interface AtomicIterator

Overrides:

next in class SingletonIterator

Returns:

the next item, or null if there are no more items. Once a call on next() has returned null, no further calls should be made. The preferred action for an iterator if subsequent calls on next() are made is to return null again, and all implementations within Saxon follow this rule.
