Method Detail

getContext

public Text getContext()

Get the XPath expression to match.

It is assumed in the FormalNameNode class (in the FormalNameNode.getDefaultVocabulary(boolean) and FormalNameNode.getDefaultScheme(boolean) methods) that the context node for the XPath expression is the parent of the Catalog containing this declaration. The NewsML 1.0 functional specification does not state what the context node should be.

Returns:

Text containing a relative XPath expression (not null).

getScheme

public Text getScheme()

Get the scheme to be applied to any matches.

Returns:

Text containing the scheme string, or null if none was provided.
