This method is functionally equivalent to:

*

Get a new XPathFactory instance using the specified object model.

* *

To find a XPathFactory object, * this method looks the following places in the following order where "the class loader" refers to the context class loader:

*
    *
  1. * If the system property {@link #DEFAULT_PROPERTY_NAME} + ":uri" is present, * where uri is the parameter to this method, then its value is read as a class name. * The method will try to create a new instance of this class by using the class loader, * and returns it if it is successfully created. *
  2. *
  3. * ${java.home}/lib/jaxp.properties is read and the value associated with the key being the system property above is looked for. * If present, the value is processed just like above. *
  4. *
  5. * The class loader is asked for service provider provider-configuration files matching javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory * in the resource directory META-INF/services. * See the JAR File Specification for file format and parsing rules. * Each potential service provider is required to implement the method: *
        *       {@link #isObjectModelSupported(String objectModel)}
        *     
    * The first service provider found in class loader order that supports the specified object model is returned. *
  6. *
  7. * Platform default XPathFactory is located in a platform specific way. * There must be a platform default XPathFactory for the W3C DOM, i.e. {@link #DEFAULT_OBJECT_MODEL_URI}. *
  8. *
*

If everything fails, an XPathFactoryConfigurationException will be thrown.

* *

Tip for Trouble-shooting:

*

See {@link java.util.Properties#load(java.io.InputStream)} for exactly how a property file is parsed. * In particular, colons ':' need to be escaped in a property file, so make sure the URIs are properly escaped in it. * For example:

*
    *   http\://java.sun.com/jaxp/xpath/dom=org.acme.DomXPathFactory
    * 
* * @param uri Identifies the underlying object model. * The specification only defines the URI {@link #DEFAULT_OBJECT_MODEL_URI}, * http://java.sun.com/jaxp/xpath/dom for the W3C DOM, * the org.w3c.dom package, and implementations are free to introduce other URIs for other object models. * * @return Instance of an XPathFactory. * * @throws XPathFactoryConfigurationException If the specified object model is unavailable. * @throws NullPointerException If uri is null. * @throws IllegalArgumentException If uri.length() == 0. */ public static final XPathFactory newInstance(final String uri) throws XPathFactoryConfigurationException { if (uri == null) { throw new NullPointerException( "XPathFactory#newInstance(String uri) cannot be called with uri == null" ); } if (uri.length() == 0) { throw new IllegalArgumentException( "XPathFactory#newInstance(String uri) cannot be called with uri == \"\"" ); } ClassLoader classLoader = SecuritySupport.getContextClassLoader(); if (classLoader == null) { //use the current class loader classLoader = XPathFactory.class.getClassLoader(); } XPathFactory xpathFactory = new XPathFactoryFinder(classLoader).newFactory(uri); if (xpathFactory == null) { throw new XPathFactoryConfigurationException( "No XPathFctory implementation found for the object model: " + uri ); } return xpathFactory; } /** *

Is specified object model supported by this XPathFactory?

* * @param objectModel Specifies the object model which the returned XPathFactory will understand. * * @return true if XPathFactory supports objectModel, else false. * * @throws NullPointerException If objectModel is null. * @throws IllegalArgumentException If objectModel.length() == 0. */ public abstract boolean isObjectModelSupported(String objectModel); /** *
