    public class QNameValue

extends QualifiedNameValue

A QName value. This implements the so-called "triples proposal", in which the prefix is retained as part of the value. The prefix is not used in any operation on a QName other than conversion of the QName to a string.

Constructor Detail

### QNameValue

    public QNameValue(String prefix,
                      String uri,
                      String localName)

  Constructor for a QName that is known to be valid. No validation takes place.

  Parameters:
    `prefix` - The prefix part of the QName (not used in comparisons). Use "" to represent the default prefix.
    `uri` - The namespace part of the QName. Use "" to represent the non-namespace.
    `localName` - The local part of the QName

### QNameValue

    public QNameValue(String prefix,
                      String uri,
                      String localName,
                      AtomicType type)

  Constructor for a QName that is known to be valid, allowing a user-defined subtype of QName to be specified. No validation takes place.

  Parameters:
    `prefix` - The prefix part of the QName (not used in comparisons). Use "" to represent the default prefix (but null is also accepted)
    `uri` - The namespace part of the QName. Use null to represent the non-namespace (but "" is also accepted).
    `localName` - The local part of the QName
    `type` - The type label, xs:QName or a subtype of xs:QName

### QNameValue

    public QNameValue(NamePool namePool,
                      int nameCode)

  Constructor starting from a NamePool namecode

  Parameters:
    `namePool` - The name pool containing the specified name code
    `nameCode` - The name code identifying this name in the name pool

### QNameValue

    public QNameValue(String prefix,
                      String uri,
                      String localName,
                      AtomicType type,
                      NameChecker checker)
               throws XPathException

  Constructor. This constructor validates that the local part is a valid NCName.

  Parameters:
    `prefix` - The prefix part of the QName (not used in comparisons). Use "" to represent the default prefix (but null is also accepted). Note that the prefix is not checked for lexical correctness, because in most cases it will already have been matched against in-scope namespaces. Where necessary the caller must check the prefix.
    `uri` - The namespace part of the QName. Use null to represent the non-namespace (but "" is also accepted).
    `localName` - The local part of the QName
    `type` - The atomic type, which must be either xs:QName, or a user-defined type derived from xs:QName by restriction
    `checker` - NameChecker used to check the name against XML 1.0 or XML 1.1 rules. Supply null if the name does not need to be checked (the caller asserts that it is known to be valid)
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if the local part of the name is malformed or if the name has a null namespace with a non-empty prefix

### QNameValue

    public QNameValue(StructuredQName qName,
                      AtomicType typeLabel)

  Constructor

  Parameters:
    `qName` - the name as a StructuredQName
    `typeLabel` - idenfies a subtype of xs:QName

Method Detail

### copyAsSubType

    public AtomicValue copyAsSubType(AtomicType typeLabel)

  Create a copy of this atomic value, with a different type label

  Specified by:
    `copyAsSubType` in class `AtomicValue`
  Parameters:
    `typeLabel` - the type label of the new copy. The caller is responsible for checking that the value actually conforms to this type.
  Returns:
    the copied value

### getPrimitiveType

    public BuiltInAtomicType getPrimitiveType()

  Determine the primitive type of the value. This delivers the same answer as getItemType().getPrimitiveItemType(). The primitive types are the 19 primitive types of XML Schema, plus xs:integer, xs:dayTimeDuration and xs:yearMonthDuration, and xs:untypedAtomic. For external objects, the result is AnyAtomicType.

  Specified by:
    `getPrimitiveType` in class `AtomicValue`
  Returns:
    the primitive type

### convertPrimitive

    public ConversionResult convertPrimitive(BuiltInAtomicType requiredType,
                                             boolean validate,
                                             ConversionRules rules)

  Convert a QName to target data type

  Specified by:
    `convertPrimitive` in class `AtomicValue`
  Parameters:
    `requiredType` - an integer identifying the required atomic type
    `rules` -
    `validate` - true if validation is required. If set to false, the caller guarantees that the value is valid for the target data type, and that further validation is therefore not required. Note that a validation failure may be reported even if validation was not requested.
  Returns:
    an AtomicValue, a value of the required type; or an ErrorValue

### getComponent

    public AtomicValue getComponent(int part)

  Get a component. Returns a zero-length string if the namespace-uri component is requested and is not present.

  Overrides:
    `getComponent` in class `AtomicValue`
  Parameters:
    `part` - either Component.LOCALNAME or Component.NAMESPACE indicating which component of the value is required
  Returns:
    either the local name or the namespace URI, in each case as a StringValue

### equals

    public boolean equals(Object other)

  Determine if two QName values are equal. This comparison ignores the prefix part of the value.

  Specified by:
    `equals` in class `AtomicValue`
  Parameters:
    `other` - the other value
  Returns:
    true if the other operand is an atomic value and the two values are equal as defined by the XPath eq operator
  Throws:
    `ClassCastException` - if they are not comparable

### getSchemaComparable

    public Comparable getSchemaComparable()

  Description copied from class: `AtomicValue`
  Get a Comparable value that implements the XML Schema ordering comparison semantics for this value. An implementation must be provided for all atomic types.

  In the case of data types that are partially ordered, the returned Comparable extends the standard semantics of the compareTo() method by returning the value `Value.INDETERMINATE_ORDERING` when there is no defined order relationship between two given values. This value is also returned when two values of different types are compared.

  Specified by:
    `getSchemaComparable` in class `AtomicValue`
  Returns:
    a Comparable that follows XML Schema comparison rules
