public class XPathException
extends TransformerException

This class implements an exception object that all XPath classes will throw in case of an error. This class extends TransformerException, and may hold other exceptions. In the case of nested exceptions, printStackTrace will dump all the traces of the nested exceptions, not just the trace of this object.

Method Detail

### getStylesheetNode

    public java.lang.Object getStylesheetNode()

  Get the stylesheet node from where this error originated.
  Returns:
    The stylesheet node from where this error originated, or null.

### setStylesheetNode

    public void setStylesheetNode(java.lang.Object styleNode)

  Set the stylesheet node from where this error originated.
  Parameters:
    `styleNode` - The stylesheet node from where this error originated, or null.

### getStylesheetNode

    public Node getStylesheetNode(ExpressionNode ex)

  Get the XSLT ElemVariable that this sub-expression references. In order for this to work, the SourceLocator must be the owning ElemTemplateElement.
  Returns:
    The dereference to the ElemVariable, or null if not found.

### printStackTrace

    public void printStackTrace(java.io.PrintStream s)

  Print the the trace of methods from where the error originated. This will trace all nested exception objects, as well as this object.

    `s` - The stream where the dump will be sent to.
  Overrides:
    printStackTrace in class TransformerException

### getMessage

    public java.lang.String getMessage()

  Find the most contained message.
  Returns:
    The error message of the originating exception.
  Overrides:
    getMessage in class java.lang.Throwable
