public class ChildTestIterator
extends BasicTestIterator

This class implements an optimized iterator for children patterns that have a node test, and possibly a predicate.

Constructor Summary
`ChildTestIterator(DTMAxisTraverser traverser)` Create a ChildTestIterator object.

Method Summary
`DTMIterator` `cloneWithReset()` Get a cloned Iterator that is reset to the beginning of the query.
`void` `detach()` Detaches the iterator from the set which it iterated over, releasing any computational resources and placing the iterator in the INVALID state.
`int` `getAxis()` Returns the axis being iterated, if it is known.
`void` `setRoot(int context, java.lang.Object environment)` Initialize the context values for this expression after it is cloned.

Constructor Detail

### ChildTestIterator

    public ChildTestIterator(DTMAxisTraverser traverser)

  Create a ChildTestIterator object.
  Parameters:
    `traverser` - Traverser that tells how the KeyIterator is to be handled.
  Throws:
    TransformerException -

Method Detail

### cloneWithReset

    public DTMIterator cloneWithReset()
                               throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

  Get a cloned Iterator that is reset to the beginning of the query.
  Returns:
    A cloned NodeIterator set of the start of the query.
  Throws:
    java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException -
  Overrides:
    cloneWithReset in class BasicTestIterator

### setRoot

    public void setRoot(int context,
                        java.lang.Object environment)

  Initialize the context values for this expression after it is cloned.
  Parameters:
    `context` - The XPath runtime context for this transformation.
  Overrides:
    setRoot in class LocPathIterator

### getAxis

    public int getAxis()

  Returns the axis being iterated, if it is known.
  Returns:
    Axis.CHILD, etc., or -1 if the axis is not known or is of multiple types.
  Overrides:
    getAxis in class LocPathIterator

### detach

    public void detach()

  Detaches the iterator from the set which it iterated over, releasing any computational resources and placing the iterator in the INVALID state. After`detach` has been invoked, calls to `nextNode` or`previousNode` will raise the exception INVALID_STATE_ERR.
  Overrides:
    detach in class LocPathIterator
