Enclosing class:

SAX2DTM2
```
public class SAX2DTM2.PrecedingIterator
extends DTMDefaultBaseIterators.InternalAxisIteratorBase
```
Iterator that returns preceding nodes of a given node. This includes the node set {root+1, start-1}, but excludes all ancestors, attributes, and namespace nodes.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`DTMAxisIterator`	`cloneIterator()`	Returns a deep copy of this iterator.
`void`	`gotoMark()`	Restores the current node remembered by setMark().
`boolean`	`isReverse()`	True if this iterator has a reversed axis.
`int`	`next()`	Get the next node in the iteration.
`DTMAxisIterator`	`reset()`	Resets the iterator to the last start node.
`void`	`setMark()`	Remembers the current node for the next call to gotoMark().
`DTMAxisIterator`	`setStartNode(int node)`	Set start to END should 'close' the iterator, i.e. subsequent call to next() should return END.

- Constructor Detail
  - PrecedingIterator
```
public PrecedingIterator()
```
- Method Detail
  - isReverse
```
public boolean isReverse()
```
    True if this iterator has a reversed axis.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isReverse in interface DTMAxisIterator
    
    Overrides:
    
    isReverse in class DTMAxisIteratorBase
    
    Returns:
    
    true since this iterator is a reversed axis.
  - cloneIterator
```
public DTMAxisIterator cloneIterator()
```
    Returns a deep copy of this iterator. The cloned iterator is not reset.
    
    Specified by:
    
    cloneIterator in interface DTMAxisIterator
    
    Overrides:
    
    cloneIterator in class DTMAxisIteratorBase
    
    Returns:
    
    a deep copy of this iterator.
  - setStartNode
```
public DTMAxisIterator setStartNode(int node)
```
    Set start to END should 'close' the iterator, i.e. subsequent call to next() should return END.
    
    Parameters:
    
    node - Sets the root of the iteration.
    
    Returns:
    
    A DTMAxisIterator set to the start of the iteration.
  - next
```
public int next()
```
    Get the next node in the iteration.
    
    Returns:
    
    The next node handle in the iteration, or END.
  - reset
```
public DTMAxisIterator reset()
```
    Resets the iterator to the last start node.
    
    Specified by:
    
    reset in interface DTMAxisIterator
    
    Overrides:
    
    reset in class DTMAxisIteratorBase
    
    Returns:
    
    A DTMAxisIterator, which may or may not be the same as this iterator.
  - setMark
```
public void setMark()
```
    Description copied from class: DTMDefaultBaseIterators.InternalAxisIteratorBase
    
    Remembers the current node for the next call to gotoMark(). %REVIEW% Should this save _position too?
    
    Specified by:
    
    setMark in interface DTMAxisIterator
    
    Overrides:
    
    setMark in class DTMDefaultBaseIterators.InternalAxisIteratorBase
  - gotoMark
```
public void gotoMark()
```
    Description copied from class: DTMDefaultBaseIterators.InternalAxisIteratorBase
    
    Restores the current node remembered by setMark(). %REVEIW% Should this restore _position too?
    
    Specified by:
    
    gotoMark in interface DTMAxisIterator
    
    Overrides:
    
    gotoMark in class DTMDefaultBaseIterators.InternalAxisIteratorBase
