Class NodeSetPattern

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, javax.xml.transform.SourceLocator, Container, PatternFinder

    public class NodeSetPattern
    extends Pattern
    A NodeSetPattern is a pattern based on an expression that is evaluated to return a set of nodes; a node matches the pattern if it is a member of this node-set.

    In XSLT 2.0 there are two forms of NodeSetPattern allowed, represented by calls on the id() and key() functions. In XSLT 3.0, additional forms are allowed, for example a variable reference, and a call to the doc() function. This class provides the general capability to use any expression at the head of a pattern. This is used also to support streaming, where streaming XPath expressions are mapped to patterns.

      • NodeSetPattern

        public NodeSetPattern​(Expression exp,
                              Configuration config)
        Create a node-set pattern.
        Parameters:
        exp - an expression that can be evaluated to return a node-set; a node matches the pattern if it is present in this node-set. The expression must not depend on the focus, though it can depend on other aspects of the dynamic context such as local or global variables.

      • analyze

        public Pattern analyze​(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                               ExpressionVisitor.ContextItemType contextItemType)
                        throws XPathException
        Type-check the pattern. Default implementation does nothing. This is only needed for patterns that contain variable references or function calls.
        Overrides:
        analyze in class Pattern
        Parameters:
        visitor - the expression visitor
        contextItemType - the type of the context item at the point where the pattern is defined. Set to null if it is known that the context item is undefined.
        Returns:
        the optimised Pattern
        Throws:
        XPathException - if a static error is discovered
      • getDependencies

        public int getDependencies()
        Get the dependencies of the pattern. The only possible dependency for a pattern is on local variables. This is analyzed in those patterns where local variables may appear.
        Overrides:
        getDependencies in class Pattern
        Returns:
        the dependencies, as a bit-significant mask
      • iterateSubExpressions

        public java.util.Iterator iterateSubExpressions()
        Iterate over the subexpressions within this pattern
        Overrides:
        iterateSubExpressions in class Pattern
        Returns:
        an iterator over the subexpressions. Default implementation returns an empty sequence
      • promote

        public void promote​(PromotionOffer offer,
                            Expression parent)
                     throws XPathException
        Offer promotion for subexpressions within this pattern. The offer will be accepted if the subexpression is not dependent on the factors (e.g. the context item) identified in the PromotionOffer. By default the offer is not accepted - this is appropriate in the case of simple expressions such as constant values and variable references where promotion would give no performance advantage. This method is always called at compile time.

        Unlike the corresponding method on Expression, this method does not return anything: it can make internal changes to the pattern, but cannot return a different pattern. Only certain kinds of promotion are applicable within a pattern: specifically, promotions affecting local variable references within the pattern.

        Overrides:
        promote in class Pattern
        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 expression
        parent -
        Throws:
        XPathException - if any error is detected
      • replaceSubExpression

        public boolean replaceSubExpression​(Expression original,
                                            Expression replacement)
        Replace a subexpression by a replacement subexpression
        Overrides:
        replaceSubExpression in class Pattern
        Parameters:
        original - the expression to be replaced
        replacement - the new expression to be inserted in its place
        Returns:
        true if the replacement was carried out
      • allocateSlots

        public int allocateSlots​(StaticContext env,
                                 SlotManager slotManager,
                                 int nextFree)
        Allocate slots to any variables used within the pattern
        Overrides:
        allocateSlots in class Pattern
        Parameters:
        env - the static context in the XSLT stylesheet
        slotManager - the slot manager representing the stack frame for local variables
        nextFree - the next slot that is free to be allocated @return the next slot that is free to be allocated
        Returns:
        the next slot that is free to be allocated
      • matches

        public boolean matches​(Item item,
                               XPathContext context)
                        throws XPathException
        Determine whether this Pattern matches the given Node
        Specified by:
        matches in class Pattern
        Parameters:
        item - The NodeInfo representing the Element or other node to be tested against the Pattern
        context - The dynamic context. Only relevant if the pattern uses variables, or contains calls on functions such as document() or key().
        Returns:
        true if the node matches the Pattern, false otherwise
        Throws:
        XPathException - if a dynamic error occurs during pattern matching
