    • AtomicSequenceConverter

      public AtomicSequenceConverter(Expression sequence, PlainType requiredItemType, boolean allConverted)
      Constructor
      Parameters:
      sequence - this must be a sequence of atomic values. This is not checked; a ClassCastException will occur if the precondition is not satisfied.
      requiredItemType - the item type to which all items in the sequence should be converted, using the rules for "cast as".
  • Method Details

    • makeUntypedSequenceConverter

      public static AtomicSequenceConverter makeUntypedSequenceConverter(Configuration config, Expression operand, PlainType requiredItemType) throws XPathException
      Create an AtomicSequenceConverter that converts all untypedAtomic values in the input sequence to a specified target type, while leaving items other than untypedAtomic unchanged
      Parameters:
      config - the Saxon configuration
      operand - the expression that delivers the input sequence
      requiredItemType - the type to which untypedAtomic values should be cast, which must either be an atomic type or a "plain" union type
      Returns:
      an AtomicSequenceConverter that performs the required conversion
      Throws:
      XPathException
    • makeUntypedSequenceRejector

      public static AtomicSequenceConverter makeUntypedSequenceRejector(Configuration config, Expression operand, PlainType requiredItemType)
    • allocateConverter

      public void allocateConverter(Configuration config)
    • getConverter

      public Converter getConverter()
      Get the converter used to convert the items in the sequence
      Returns:
      the converter. Note that a converter is always allocated during the typeCheck() phase, even if the source type is not known.
    • setConverter

      public void setConverter(Converter converter)
    • isAllItemsConverted

      public boolean isAllItemsConverted()
      Ask if all items in the input are converted to the target type
    • simplify

      public Expression simplify(ExpressionVisitor visitor) throws XPathException
      Simplify an expression
      Overrides:
      simplify in class UnaryExpression
      Parameters:
      visitor - an expression visitor
      Returns:
      the simplified expression
      Throws:
      XPathException - if an error is discovered during expression rewriting
    • typeCheck

      public Expression typeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ExpressionVisitor.ContextItemType contextItemType) throws XPathException
      Type-check the expression
      Overrides:
      typeCheck in class UnaryExpression
      Parameters:
      visitor - an expression visitor
      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 to perform necessary run-time type checks, and to perform other type-related optimizations
      Throws:
      XPathException - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)
    • optimize

      public Expression optimize(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ExpressionVisitor.ContextItemType contextItemType) throws XPathException
      Perform optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions.
      Overrides:
      optimize in class UnaryExpression
      Parameters:
      visitor - an expression visitor
      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:
      XPathException - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)
    • computeSpecialProperties

      public int computeSpecialProperties()
      Determine the special properties of this expression

      Returns:
      StaticProperty.NON_CREATIVE.
    • copy

      public Expression copy()
      Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.

      Returns:
      the copy of the original expression
    • iterate

      Iterate over the sequence of values
      Overrides:
      iterate in class Expression
      Parameters:
      context - supplies the context for evaluation
      Returns:
      a SequenceIterator that can be used to iterate over the result of the expression

      XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression
    • evaluateItem

      public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext context) throws XPathException
      Evaluate as an Item. This should only be called if the AtomicSequenceConverter has cardinality zero-or-one
