Package com.icl.saxon.om Description

This package defines the interface to the Saxon tree structure. This structure is used to represent both the source document and the stylesheet.

The classes represent the various kinds of node on the tree. They implement the relevant DOM interfaces, but they are intended primarily to be used to reflect the XPath tree model rather than the DOM model.

The package also contains, for convenience, the Name class, which represents a namespace-qualified name.
