## net.sf.saxon.om
Class DocumentPool

    java.lang.Object
      net.sf.saxon.om.DocumentPool

    public final class DocumentPool

extends Object

An object representing the collection of documents handled during a single transformation.

The function of allocating document numbers is performed by the DocumentNumberAllocator in the Configuration, not by the DocumentPool. This has a number of effects: in particular it allows operations involving multiple documents (such as generateId() and document()) to occur in a free-standing XPath environment.

Constructor Detail

### DocumentPool

    public DocumentPool()

Method Detail

### add

    public void add(DocumentInfo doc,
                    String uri)

  Add a document to the pool

  Parameters:
    `doc` - The DocumentInfo for the document in question
    `uri` - The document-uri property of the document.

### find

    public DocumentInfo find(String uri)

  Get the document with a given document-uri

  Parameters:
    `uri` - The document-uri property of the document.
  Returns:
    the DocumentInfo with the given document-uri property if it exists, or null if it is not found.

### getDocumentURI

    public String getDocumentURI(NodeInfo doc)

  Get the URI for a given document node, if it is present in the pool. This supports the document-uri() function.

  Parameters:
    `doc` - The document node
  Returns:
    The uri of the document node, if present in the pool, or the systemId of the document node otherwise

### discard

    public DocumentInfo discard(DocumentInfo doc)

  Release a document from the document pool. This means that if the same document is loaded again later, the source will need to be re-parsed, and nodes will get new identities.
