Interface XPathSupport

All Known Implementing Classes:

XPathSupportDefault

Deprecated. This compatibility layer will be removed in later releases.

public interface XPathSupport

Provides basic support for independent use of XPath. This interface is used in order that there may be loose coupling between the XPath package and the support services, such as the variable store, parser services, DOM implementation, etc. Most if all implementations of this should derive from XPathSupportDefault (hence, it should probably be an abstract class instead of an interface).

This class is based on an implementation from the Apache XML Project. In future releases the XML parser, XSLT processor, and associated classes will likely be updated to be based on a later version of the Apache implementations. Since Apache does not guarantee backwards compatibility between versions of their software, we cannot guarantee backwards compatibility of any of the classes contained in the weblogic.apache package or sub-packages.
