Class RecordType

java.lang.Object
net.sf.saxon.ma.map.RecordType
All Implemented Interfaces:
FunctionItemType, ItemType

public class RecordType extends Object implements FunctionItemType
An instance of this class represents a specific record item type, for example record(x as xs:double, y as element(employee)). Record types are a proposed extension for XPath 4.0. They were previously introduced as a Saxon extension in Saxon 9.8, under the name "tuple types". The syntax for constructing a record type requires Saxon-PE or higher, but the supporting code is included in Saxon-HE for convenience. Extended in 10.0 to distinguish extensible vs non-extensible record types. Extensible record types permit fields other than those listed to appear; non-extensible record types do not. An extensible record type is denoted by record(... ,*).
