    - #### public NodeChildren(GPathResult parent, String name, String namespacePrefix, Map<String, String> namespaceTagHints)

      Parameters:
        `parent` - the GPathResult prior to the application of the expression creating this GPathResult
        `name` - if the GPathResult corresponds to something with a name, e.g. a node
        `namespacePrefix` - the namespace prefix if any
        `namespaceTagHints` - the known tag to namespace mappings

    - #### public NodeChildren(GPathResult parent, String name, Map<String, String> namespaceTagHints)

      Parameters:
        `parent` - the GPathResult prior to the application of the expression creating this GPathResult
        `name` - if the GPathResult corresponds to something with a name, e.g. a node
        `namespaceTagHints` - the known tag to namespace mappings

    - #### public NodeChildren(GPathResult parent, Map<String, String> namespaceTagHints)

      Parameters:
        `parent` - the GPathResult prior to the application of the expression creating this GPathResult
        `namespaceTagHints` - the known tag to namespace mappings
