Method Details

getExpressionName
Get a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user.- Overrides:
getExpressionName
in classExpression
- Returns:
- a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user. The name will always be in the form of a lexical XML QName, and should match the name used in explain() output displaying the expression.

getComparer

simplify
Description copied from class:UnaryExpression
Simplify an expression- Overrides:
simplify
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
visitor
- an expression visitor- Returns:
- the simplified expression
- Throws:
XPathException
- if an error is discovered during expression rewriting
-
optimize
public Expression optimize(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ExpressionVisitor.ContextItemType contextItemType) throws XPathException Description copied from class:UnaryExpression
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.
- Overrides:
optimize
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
visitor
- an expression visitorcontextItemType
- 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 toType.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()Description copied from class:UnaryExpression
Get the static properties of this expression (other than its type). The result is bit-signficant. These properties are used for optimizations. In general, if property bit is set, it is true, but if it is unset, the value is unknown.- Overrides:
computeSpecialProperties
in classUnaryExpression
- Returns:
- the special properties, as a bit-significant integer
-
copy
Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.- Specified by:
copy
in classExpression
- Returns:
- the copy of the original expression
-
promote
Promote this expression if possible- Overrides:
promote
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
offer
- details of the offer, for example the offer to move expressions that don't depend on the context to an outer level in the containing expressionparent
- the containing expression in the expression tree- Returns:
- if the offer is not accepted, return this expression unchanged. Otherwise return the result of rewriting the expression to promote this subexpression
- Throws:
XPathException
- if any error is detected
-
iterate
Description copied from class:Expression
Return an Iterator to iterate over the values of a sequence. The value of every expression can be regarded as a sequence, so this method is supported for all expressions. This default implementation handles iteration for expressions that return singleton values: for non-singleton expressions, the subclass must provide its own implementation.- Overrides:
iterate
in classExpression
- Parameters:
context
- supplies the context for evaluation- Returns:
- a SequenceIterator that can be used to iterate over the result of the expression
- Throws:
XPathException
- if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression
-
effectiveBooleanValue
Description copied from class:Expression
Get the effective boolean value of the expression. This returns false if the value is the empty sequence, a zero-length string, a number equal to zero, or the boolean false. Otherwise it returns true.- Overrides:
effectiveBooleanValue
in classExpression
- Parameters:
context
- The context in which the expression is to be evaluated- Returns:
- the effective boolean value
- Throws:
XPathException
- if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression
-
explain
Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.- Overrides:
explain
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
out
- the expression presenter used to display the structure
-
