Method Detail

getPosition

int getPosition()

Retrieve the relative position of this node relative to sibling nodes.

A singleton item in a sequence will have a position value of 1.

The value 1 is used as the starting value to align with the XPath specification.

Returns:

a positive integer value designating this instance's position within a collection

getParentNodeItem

INodeItem getParentNodeItem()

Retrieve the parent node item if it exists.

The parent can be an assembly or a document (in the case of a root assembly.

Specified by:

getParentNodeItem in interface INodeItem

Returns:

the parent node item, or null if this node item has no known parent

getParentContentNodeItem

IAssemblyNodeItem getParentContentNodeItem()

Description copied from interface: INodeItem

Retrieve the parent content node item if it exists. A content node is a non-document node.

Specified by:

getParentContentNodeItem in interface INodeItem

Returns:

the parent content node item, or null if this node item has no known parent content node item
