<div class="descr">
<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The QAbstractXmlNodeModel class is an abstract base class for modeling non-XML data to look like XML for <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a>.</p>
<p>The QAbstractXmlNodeModel specifies the interface that a node model must implement for that node model be accessible to the query engine for processing <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> queries. A node model represents data as a structure that can be queried as if the data were XML.</p>
<p>The node model represented by a subclass of QAbstractXmlNodeModel is meant to be accessed by the <a href="qtxmlpatterns.html">QtXmlPatterns</a> query engine. If the API seems a little strange in a few places, it is because the member functions are called by the query engine as it evaluates an <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a>. They aren't meant to be used programatically.</p>
<a name="usage"></a>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<p>QAbstractXmlNodeModel bridges the gap between the arbitrary structure of the non-XML data to be queried and the well-defined structure of XML data understood by <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a>.</p>
<p>Consider a chemistry application that reads the file <tt>chemistryData</tt>, which contains non-XML data that represents a chemical structure composed of molecules and atoms. The application will query this chemistry data with an <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> it reads from file <tt>queryFile</tt>. We write a custom subclass of QAbstractXmlNodeModel (<tt>ChemistryNodeModel</tt>) that reads <tt>chemistryData</tt> and builds a data structure, perhaps composed of objects of our own classes <tt>molecule</tt> and <tt>atom</tt>. Clearly, this data structure is not XML. Our custom subclass will know how to traverse this non-XML structure and present it through the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-datamodel/">XPath Data Model interface</a>.</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type"><a href="qfile.html">QFile</a></span> queryFile(argv<span class="operator">[</span><span class="number">1</span><span class="operator">]</span>);
<span class="type"><a href="qfile.html">QFile</a></span> chemistryData(argv<span class="operator">[</span><span class="number">2</span><span class="operator">]</span>);
<span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span> moleculeName <span class="operator">=</span> argv<span class="operator">[</span><span class="number">3</span><span class="operator">]</span>;
<span class="type"><a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a></span> query;

ChemistryNodeModel myNodeModel(query<span class="operator">.</span>namePool()<span class="operator">,</span> chemistryData);
<span class="type"><a href="qxmlnodemodelindex.html">QXmlNodeModelIndex</a></span> startNode <span class="operator">=</span> myNodeModel<span class="operator">.</span>nodeFor(moleculeName);
query<span class="operator">.</span>bindVariable(<span class="string">"queryRoot"</span><span class="operator">,</span> startNode);
<span class="type"><a href="qfile.html">QFile</a></span> out;
out<span class="operator">.</span>open(stdout<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type"><a href="qiodevice.html">QIODevice</a></span><span class="operator">::</span>WriteOnly);
<span class="type"><a href="qxmlserializer.html">QXmlSerializer</a></span> serializer(query<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="operator">&</span>out);
query<span class="operator">.</span>evaluateTo(<span class="operator">&</span>serializer);</pre>
<p>The application first creates an instance of <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a> and calls <a href="qxmlquery.html#setQuery">setQuery()</a> to read <tt>queryFile</tt> containing the <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> we want to run. Then it creates an instance of our custom node model class, <tt>ChemistryNodeModel</tt>, which is a subclass of QAbstractXmlNodeModel. Its constructor is called with the <a href="qxmlnamepool.html">name pool</a> obtained from our <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a>, and with the <tt>chemistryFile</tt> containing the structure of molecules and atoms to be queried. The <a href="qxmlnamepool.html">name pool</a> is required because our custom node model has the member function <a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html#name">name()</a>, which returns the <a href="qxmlname.html">name</a> of any node in the model. The <a href="qxmlquery.html">query</a> and the custom node model must use the same name pool for constructing these <a href="qxmlname.html">names</a>. The constructor would then read <tt>chemistryFile</tt> and build the custom node model structure.</p>
<p>To connect the <tt>query</tt> to the custom node model, we must bind a variable name used in the query to a node in the model. The variable can then be used in the query as a starting node. First, an <a href="qxmlnodemodelindex.html">index</a> for the desired starting node is retrieved by calling <a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html#createIndex">QAbstractXmlNodeModel::createIndex</a>(). Then the index is bound to a variable name, in this case <tt>queryRoot</tt>, by passing the name and the index to <a href="qxmlquery.html#bindVariable">QXmlQuery::bindVariable</a>(). The query can then use a variable reference <tt>$queryRoot</tt> to refer to the starting node. Note that if the <a href="qxmlquery.html">query</a> uses multiple variable references, a call to <a href="qxmlquery.html#bindVariable">QXmlQuery::bindVariable</a>() is required to bind each different variable name to a node in the model.</p>
<p>The query is executed when the application calls one of the <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a> evaluation functions. The application uses QXmlQuery::evaluateTo(<a href="qabstractxmlreceiver.html">QAbstractXmlReceiver</a> *), because it then uses a <a href="qxmlserializer.html">serializer</a> to out the query result as XML to <tt>stdout</tt>. We could have used QXmlQuery::evaluateTo(<a href="qxmlresultitems.html">QXmlResultItems</a> *) to get a list of result items, or QXmlQuery::evaluateTo(<a href="qstringlist.html">QStringList</a> *) if the query evaluated to a sequence of <tt>xs:string</tt> values.</p>
<p>During query execution, the engine iterates over the node model using <a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html#nextFromSimpleAxis">nextFromSimpleAxis</a>() to get the <a href="qxmlnodemodelindex.html">index</a> of the next node to be visited. The engine can get the name of a node by calling <a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html#name">name</a>() with the node's <a href="qxmlnodemodelindex.html">index</a>. <a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html#stringValue">stringValue</a>(), <a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html#baseUri">baseUri</a>(), <a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html#documentUri">documentUri</a>() and <a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html#kind">kind</a>() are also called as needed with a node <a href="qxmlnodemodelindex.html">index</a>.</p>
<p>The example demonstrates the standard pattern for using a subclass of QAbstractXmlNodeModel in combination with <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a> to perform an <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a>.</p>
<ol class="1">
<li>Instantiate <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a> and give it the <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> to be run;</li>
<li>Instantiate a subclass of QAbstractXmlNodeModel or <a href="qsimplexmlnodemodel.html">QSimpleXmlNodeModel</a>;</li>
<li>Retrieve a <a href="qxmlnodemodelindex.html">QXmlNodeModelIndex</a> for the node in the model where the <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a> should start the query;</li>
<li>Use <a href="qxmlquery.html#bindVariable">QXmlQuery::bindVariable</a>() to bind the <a href="qxmlnodemodelindex.html">QXmlNodeModelIndex</a> to <tt>$variable name</tt>;</li>
<li>Call one of the <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a> evaluation functions to run the query.</li>
</ol>
<a name="subclassing"></a>
<h3>Subclassing</h3>
<p>Because the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-datamodel/">XPath Data Model interface</a> presented by QAbstractXmlNodeModel allows <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a> to operate on non-XML data as if it were XML, implementing subclasses of QAbstractXmlNodeModel can involve a significant amount of work. The <a href="qsimplexmlnodemodel.html">QSimpleXmlNodeModel</a> class is provided to simplify the implementation for many common use cases.</p>
<a name="thread-safety"></a>
<h3>Thread Safety</h3>
<p>Because the node model can be accessed concurrently by threads in the <a href="qtxmlpatterns.html">QtXmlPatterns</a> module, subclasses of QAbstractXmlNodeModel must be written to be <a href="threads-reentrancy.html">thread-safe</a>. Classes that simplify implementing thread-safety include <a href="qreadlocker.html">QReadLocker</a> and <a href="qwritelocker.html">QWriteLocker</a>.</p>
<p>See the example <a href="xmlpatterns-filetree.html">File System Example</a> for a demonstration.</p>

<p>Returns the base URI for the node whose index is <i>n</i>. The caller guarantees that <i>n</i> is not <tt>null</tt> and that it belongs to a node in this node model.</p>
<p>The base URI of a node can be extracted using the <tt>fn:base-uri()</tt> function. The base URI is typically used for resolving relative URIs that appear in the node or its children. It is conformant to just return the document URI, although that might not properly reflect the underlying data.</p>
<p>This function maps to the <tt>dm:base-uri</tt> accessor, which returns a base URI according to the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>For document nodes, the base URI and the document URI are the same.</li>
<li>For elements, the base URI is the URI appearing in the element's <tt>xml:base</tt> attribute, if present, or it is resolved to the parent element's base URI.</li>
<li>Namespace nodes have no base URI.</li>
<li>The base URI for a processing instruction, comment, attribute, or text node is the base URI of the node's parent element.</li>
</ul>
<p>The implementation guarantees to return a valid <a href="qurl.html">QUrl</a>, or a default constructed <a href="qurl.html">QUrl</a>. If a node has no base URI, as in the case where a comment has no parent, a default constructed <a href="qurl.html">QUrl</a> is returned.</p>

<p>This function returns the relative document order for the nodes indexed by <i>ni1</i> and <i>ni2</i>. It is used for the <tt>Is</tt> operator and for sorting nodes in document order.</p>
<p>The caller guarantees that <i>ni1</i> and <i>ni2</i> are not <tt>null</tt> and that both identify nodes in this node model.</p>
<p>If <i>ni1</i> is identical to <i>ni2</i>, <a href="qxmlnodemodelindex.html#DocumentOrder-enum">QXmlNodeModelIndex::Is</a> is returned.
