      The ammount to use for stacks that record information during the recursive execution.
      See Also:
        Constant Field Values

  - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### XPathContext

          public XPathContext()

      Create an XPathContext instance. This is equivalent to calling the `XPathContext(boolean)` constructor with the value `true`.

    - #### XPathContext

          public XPathContext(boolean recursiveVarContext)

      Create an XPathContext instance.
      Parameters:
        `recursiveVarContext` - A `boolean` value indicating whether the XPath context needs to support pushing of scopes for variable resolution

    - #### XPathContext

          public XPathContext(java.lang.Object owner)

      Create an XPathContext instance. This is equivalent to calling the constructor `XPathContext(java.lang.Object,boolean)` with the value of the second parameter set to `true`.
      Parameters:
        `owner` - Value that can be retrieved via the getOwnerObject() method.
      See Also:
        `getOwnerObject()`

    - #### XPathContext

          public XPathContext(java.lang.Object owner,
                              boolean recursiveVarContext)

      Create an XPathContext instance.
      Parameters:
        `owner` - Value that can be retrieved via the getOwnerObject() method.
        `recursiveVarContext` - A `boolean` value indicating whether the XPath context needs to support pushing of scopes for variable resolution
      See Also:
        `getOwnerObject()`

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getDTMManager

          public DTMManager getDTMManager()

      Return the DTMManager object. Though XPathContext context extends the DTMManager, it really is a proxy for the real DTMManager. If a caller needs to make a lot of calls to the DTMManager, it is faster if it gets the real one from this function.

    - #### setSecureProcessing

          public void setSecureProcessing(boolean flag)

      Set the state of the secure processing feature

    - #### isSecureProcessing

          public boolean isSecureProcessing()

      Return the state of the secure processing feature

    - #### getDTM

          public DTM getDTM(javax.xml.transform.Source source,
                            boolean unique,
                            DTMWSFilter wsfilter,
                            boolean incremental,
                            boolean doIndexing)

      Get an instance of a DTM, loaded with the content from the specified source. If the unique flag is true, a new instance will always be returned. Otherwise it is up to the DTMManager to return a new instance or an instance that it already created and may be being used by someone else. (I think more parameters will need to be added for error handling, and entity resolution).
      Specified by:
        `getDTM` in class `DTMManager`
      Parameters:
        `source` - the specification of the source object, which may be null, in which case it is assumed that node construction will take by some other means.
        `unique` - true if the returned DTM must be unique, probably because it is going to be mutated.
        `wsfilter` - Enables filtering of whitespace nodes, and may be null.
        `incremental` - true if the construction should try and be incremental.
        `doIndexing` - true if the caller considers it worth it to use indexing schemes.
      Returns:
        a non-null DTM reference.

    - #### getDTM

        `getDTMHandleFromNode` in class `DTMManager`

        `release` in class `DTMManager`
      Parameters:
        `dtm` - The DTM to be released.

        `createDTMIterator` in class `DTMManager`

    - #### getGlobalRTFDTM

          public DTM getGlobalRTFDTM()

      Get a DTM to be used as a container for a global Result Tree Fragment. This will always be an instance of (derived from? equivalent to?) SAX2DTM, since each RTF is constructed by temporarily redirecting our SAX output to it. It may be a single DTM containing for multiple fragments, if the implementation supports that. Note: The distinction between this method and getRTFDTM() is that the latter allocates space from the dynamic variable stack (m_rtfdtm_stack), which may be pruned away again as the templates which defined those variables are exited. Global variables may be bound late (see XUnresolvedVariable), and never want to be discarded, hence we need to allocate them separately and don't actually need a stack to track them.
      Returns:
        a non-null DTM reference.

    - #### getRTFDTM

          public DTM getRTFDTM()

      Get a DTM to be used as a container for a dynamic Result Tree Fragment. This will always be an instance of (derived from? equivalent to?) SAX2DTM, since each RTF is constructed by temporarily redirecting our SAX output to it. It may be a single DTM containing for multiple fragments, if the implementation supports that.
      Returns:
        a non-null DTM reference.

    - #### pushRTFContext

          public void pushRTFContext()

      Push the RTFDTM's context mark, to allows discarding RTFs added after this point. (If it doesn't exist we don't push, since we might still be able to get away with not creating it. That requires that excessive pops be harmless.)

    - #### popRTFContext

          public void popRTFContext()

      Pop the RTFDTM's context mark. This discards any RTFs added after the last mark was set. If there is no RTF DTM, there's nothing to pop so this becomes a no-op. If pushes were issued before this was called, we count on the fact that popRewindMark is defined such that overpopping just resets to empty. Complicating factor: We need to handle the case of popping back to a previous RTF DTM, if one of the weird produce-an-RTF-to-build-an-RTF cases arose. Basically: If pop says this DTM is now empty, then return to the previous if one exists, in whatever state we left it in. UGLY, but hopefully the situation which forces us to consider this will arise exceedingly rarely.

    - #### getDTMXRTreeFrag

          public DTMXRTreeFrag getDTMXRTreeFrag(int dtmIdentity)

      Gets DTMXRTreeFrag object if one has already been created. Creates new DTMXRTreeFrag object and adds to m_DTMXRTreeFrags HashMap, otherwise.
      Parameters:
        `dtmIdentity` -
      Returns:
        DTMXRTreeFrag
