```
    Construct a XNodeSet object.
    
    Parameters:
    
    val - FastStringBuffer object this will wrap, must be non-null.
    
    start - The start position in the array.

- Method Detail
  - fsb
```
public FastStringBuffer fsb()
```
    Cast result object to a string.
    
    Returns:
    
    The string this wraps or the empty string if null
  - appendToFsb
```
public void appendToFsb(FastStringBuffer fsb)
```
    Cast result object to a string.
    
    Overrides:
    
    appendToFsb in class XObject
  - hasString
```
public boolean hasString()
```
    Tell if this object contains a java String object.
    
    Specified by:
    
    hasString in interface XMLString
    
    Overrides:
    
    hasString in class XString
    
    Returns:
    
    true if this XMLString can return a string without creating one.
  - str
```
public java.lang.String str()
```
    Cast result object to a string.
    
    Overrides:
    
    str in class XString
    
    Returns:
    
    The string this wraps or the empty string if null
  - object
```
public java.lang.Object object()
```
    Since this object is incomplete without the length and the offset, we have to convert to a string when this function is called.
    
    Overrides:
    
    object in class XObject
    
    Returns:
    
    The java String representation of this object.
  - dispatchCharactersEvents
```
public void dispatchCharactersEvents(org.xml.sax.ContentHandler ch)
                              throws org.xml.sax.SAXException
```
    Directly call the characters method on the passed ContentHandler for the string-value. Multiple calls to the ContentHandler's characters methods may well occur for a single call to this method.
    
    Specified by:
    
    dispatchCharactersEvents in interface XMLString
    
    Overrides:
    
    dispatchCharactersEvents in class XString
    
    Parameters:
    
    ch - A non-null reference to a ContentHandler.
    
    Throws:
    
    org.xml.sax.SAXException
  - dispatchAsComment
```
public void dispatchAsComment(org.xml.sax.ext.LexicalHandler lh)
                       throws org.xml.sax.SAXException

    org.xml.sax.SAXException
  - length
```
public int length()
```
    Returns the length of this string.

    length in interface XMLString
    
    Overrides:
    
    length in class XString
    
    Returns:
    
    the length of the sequence of characters represented by this object.
  - charAt
```
public char charAt(int index)
```
    Returns the character at the specified index. An index ranges from 0 to length() - 1. The first character of the sequence is at index 0, the next at index 1, and so on, as for array indexing.
    
    Specified by:
    
    charAt in interface XMLString
    
    Overrides:
    
    charAt in class XString
    
    Parameters:
    
    index - the index of the character.
    
    Returns:
    
    the character at the specified index of this string. The first character is at index 0.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - if the index argument is negative or not less than the length of this string.
  - getChars
```
public void getChars(int srcBegin,
                     int srcEnd,
                     char[] dst,
                     int dstBegin)
```
    Copies characters from this string into the destination character array.
    Specified by:
    
    getChars in interface XMLString
    
    Overrides:
    
    getChars in class XString
    
    Parameters:
    
    srcBegin - index of the first character in the string to copy.
    
    srcEnd - index after the last character in the string to copy.
    
    dst - the destination array.
    
    dstBegin - the start offset in the destination array.
    
    Throws:
    java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - If any of the following is true:
    srcBegin is negative.
    srcBegin is greater than srcEnd
    srcEnd is greater than the length of this string
