org.exolab.adaptx.xpath.functions

Class TextFunctionCall

Implemented Interfaces:
Parameters, XPathExpression

public class TextFunctionCall
extends FunctionCallImpl

A class that represents the XPath text() function call. Actually "text()" is not technically a function it's a NodeTest, but I've implemented it as one since it looks like one!
