Class IntegratedFunctionCall

    • Method Detail

      • getFunction

        public ExtensionFunctionCall getFunction()
        Get the ExtensionFunctionCall object supplied by the application
        Returns:
        the ExtensionFunctionCall object
      • setContainer

        public void setContainer​(Container container)
        Mark an expression as being in a given Container. This link is used primarily for diagnostics: the container links to the location map held in the executable.

        This affects the expression and all its subexpressions. Any subexpressions that are not in the same container are marked with the new container, and this proceeds recursively. However, any subexpression that is already in the correct container is not modified.

        Overrides:
        setContainer in class Expression
        Parameters:
        container - The container of this expression.
      • checkArguments

        public void checkArguments​(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                            throws XPathException
        Method supplied by each class of function to check arguments during parsing, when all the argument expressions have been read. This implementation of the method checks the arguments of the supplied function call against the argument types declared as part of the extension function definition, and generates code to do the conversion if necessary.
        Specified by:
        checkArguments in class FunctionCall
        Parameters:
        visitor - the expression visitor
        Throws:
        XPathException - if the arguments are statically determined to be incompatible with the declared argument types of the function.
      • typeCheck

        public Expression typeCheck​(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                                    ExpressionVisitor.ContextItemType contextItemType)
                             throws XPathException
        Type-check the expression.
        Overrides:
        typeCheck in class FunctionCall
        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)
      • preEvaluate

        public Expression preEvaluate​(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                               throws XPathException
        Pre-evaluate a function at compile time. Functions that do not allow pre-evaluation, or that need access to context information, can override this method.
        Overrides:
        preEvaluate in class FunctionCall
        Parameters:
        visitor - an expression visitor
        Returns:
        the result of the early evaluation, or the original expression, or potentially a simplified expression
        Throws:
        XPathException - if evaluation fails
      • getItemType

        public ItemType getItemType​(TypeHierarchy th)
        Determine the data type of the expression, if possible. All expression return sequences, in general; this method determines the type of the items within the sequence, assuming that (a) this is known in advance, and (b) it is the same for all items in the sequence.

        This method should always return a result, though it may be the best approximation that is available at the time.

        Specified by:
        getItemType in class Expression
        Parameters:
        th - the type hierarchy cache
        Returns:
        a value such as Type.STRING, Type.BOOLEAN, Type.NUMBER, Type.NODE, or Type.ITEM (meaning not known at compile time)
      • getIntrinsicDependencies

        public int getIntrinsicDependencies()
        Determine the intrinsic dependencies of an expression, that is, those which are not derived from the dependencies of its subexpressions. For example, position() has an intrinsic dependency on the context position, while (position()+1) does not. The default implementation of the method returns 0, indicating "no dependencies".
        Overrides:
        getIntrinsicDependencies in class Expression
        Returns:
        a set of bit-significant flags identifying the "intrinsic" dependencies. The flags are documented in class net.sf.saxon.value.StaticProperty
      • computeSpecialProperties

        protected int computeSpecialProperties()
        Compute the special properties of this expression. These properties are denoted by a bit-significant integer, possible values are in class StaticProperty. The "special" properties are properties other than cardinality and dependencies, and most of them relate to properties of node sequences, for example whether the nodes are in document order.
        Overrides:
        computeSpecialProperties in class Expression
        Returns:
        the special properties, as a bit-significant integer
      • copy

        public Expression copy()
        Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.
        Specified by:
        copy in class Expression
        Returns:
        the copy of the original expression
      • iterate

        public SequenceIterator iterate​(XPathContext context)
                                 throws XPathException
        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 class Expression
        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

        public boolean effectiveBooleanValue​(XPathContext context)
                                      throws XPathException
        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 class Expression
        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
