Package	Description
org.loboevolution.apache.xpath.axes	Implementation of XPath LocationPath support -- primary classes are LocPathIterator and UnionPathIterator.
org.loboevolution.apache.xpath.compiler	Implements an XPath parser which produces an OpMap, and a so-called Compiler which produces an expression tree for fast evaluation.
org.loboevolution.apache.xpath.functions	Implements XPath functions -- each function is derived from Function, FunctionOneArg, Function2Args, etc, with number-of-arguments checking being applied mainly at compile time -- this package only implements XPath functions, XSLT functions are found in the "templates" package.
org.loboevolution.apache.xpath.objects	Implementation of XPath polymorphic type objects -- this package will grow as XPath objects are expanded to support XML Schema data types.
org.loboevolution.apache.xpath.operations	Support for XPath operations, such as +, -, string(), etc.
org.loboevolution.apache.xpath.patterns	Implementation of XPath nodeTest support, and XSLT pattern matching support.
org.loboevolution.apache.xpath.res	Contains strings for XPath support that require internationalization.

Class	Description
Expression	This abstract class serves as the base for all expression objects.
ExpressionNode	A class that implements this interface can construct expressions, give information about child and parent expressions, and give the originating source information.
NodeSet	The NodeSet class can act as either a NodeVector, NodeList, or NodeIterator.
NodeSetDTM	The NodeSetDTM class can act as either a NodeVector, NodeList, or NodeIterator.
XPath	The XPath class wraps an expression object and provides general services for execution of that expression.
XPathAPI	The methods in this class are convenience methods into the low-level XPath API.
XPathContext	Default class for the runtime execution context for XPath.
XPathException	This class implements an exception object that all XPath classes will throw in case of an error.
XPathProcessorException	Derived from XPathException in order that XPath processor exceptions may be specifically caught.
XPathVisitable	A class that implements this interface will call a XPathVisitor for itself and members within its hierarchy.
XPathVisitor	A derivation from this class can be passed to a class that implements the XPathVisitable interface, to have the appropriate method called for each component of the XPath.
