Public bug reported: To emit the string value of an Item to an ostream, you currently have to use getStringValue() or getStringValue2(). This is inefficient since a string that is otherwise not needed needs to be created.
Instead, there should be a global operator<< defined: std::ostream& operator<<( std::ostream&, store::Item const& ); Its implementation could simply call a new protected, pure virtual member function for Item: virtual void emit( std::ostream& ) const = 0; ** Affects: zorba Importance: Undecided Assignee: Matthias Brantner (matthias-brantner) Status: New ** Tags: item store -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Zorba Coders, which is the registrant for Zorba. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/907070 Title: Item API needs operator<< Status in Zorba - The XQuery Processor: New Bug description: To emit the string value of an Item to an ostream, you currently have to use getStringValue() or getStringValue2().
