      • optimize

        public Expression optimize​(Optimizer opt,
                                   StaticContext env,
                                   ItemType contextItemType)
                            throws XPathException
        Description copied from class: FunctionCall
        Perform optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions.

        This method is called after all references to functions and variables have been resolved to the declaration of the function or variable, and after all type checking has been done.

        Specified by:
        optimize in interface Expression
        Overrides:
        optimize in class FunctionCall
        Parameters:
        opt - the optimizer in use. This provides access to supporting functions; it also allows different optimization strategies to be used in different circumstances.
        env - the static context of the expression
        contextItemType - the static type of "." at the point where this expression is invoked. The parameter is set to null if it is known statically that the context item will be undefined. If the type of the context item is not known statically, the argument is set to Type.ITEM_TYPE
        Returns:
        the original expression, rewritten if appropriate to optimize execution
        Throws:
        net.sf.saxon.trans.StaticError - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)
        XPathException
      • evaluateItem

        public Item evaluateItem​(XPathContext c)
                          throws XPathException
        Description copied from class: ComputedExpression
        Evaluate an expression as a single item. This always returns either a single Item or null (denoting the empty sequence). No conversion is done. This method should not be used unless the static type of the expression is a subtype of "item" or "item?": that is, it should not be called if the expression may return a sequence. There is no guarantee that this condition will be detected.
        Specified by:
        evaluateItem in interface Expression
        Overrides:
        evaluateItem in class ComputedExpression
        Parameters:
        c - The context in which the expression is to be evaluated
        Returns:
        the node or atomic value that results from evaluating the expression; or null to indicate that the result is an empty sequence
        Throws:
        XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression
