  • Method Details

    • getLastPosition

      int getLastPosition() throws XPathException
      Get the last position (that is, the number of items in the sequence). This method is non-destructive: it does not change the state of the iterator. The result is undefined if the next() method of the iterator has already returned null. This method must not be called unless the result of getProperties() on the iterator includes the bit setting SequenceIterator.LAST_POSITION_FINDER
      Throws:
      XPathException
