AtomicSequenceConverter
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
-
simplify
Simplify an expression- Specified by:
simplify
in interfaceExpression
- Overrides:
simplify
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
env
- the static context- Returns:
- the simplified expression
- Throws:
XPathException
- if an error is discovered during expression rewriting
-
typeCheck
Type-check the expression- Specified by:
typeCheck
in interfaceExpression
- Overrides:
typeCheck
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
env
- the static context of the expressioncontextItemType
- 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 to perform necessary run-time type checks, and to perform other type-related optimizations
- Throws:
XPathException
-
computeSpecialProperties
public int computeSpecialProperties()Determine the special properties of this expression- Overrides:
computeSpecialProperties
in classUnaryExpression
- Returns:
StaticProperty.NON_CREATIVE
.
-
iterate
Iterate over the sequence of values- Specified by:
iterate
in interfaceExpression
- Overrides:
iterate
in classComputedExpression
- 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
-
evaluateItem
Evaluate as an Item. This should only be called if the AtomicSequenceConverter has cardinality zero-or-one- Specified by:
evaluateItem
in interfaceExpression
- Overrides:
evaluateItem
in classComputedExpression
- Parameters:
context
- 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
-
getItemType
Determine the data type of the items returned by the expression, if possible- Specified by:
getItemType
in interfaceExpression
- Overrides:
getItemType
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
th
-- Returns:
- a value such as Type.STRING, Type.BOOLEAN, Type.NUMBER, Type.NODE, or Type.ITEM (meaning not known in advance)
-
computeCardinality
public int computeCardinality()Determine the static cardinality of the expression- Overrides:
computeCardinality
in classUnaryExpression
-
equals
Is this expression the same as another expression?- Overrides:
equals
in classUnaryExpression
-
displayOperator
Give a string representation of the operator for use in diagnostics- Specified by:
displayOperator
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
config
-- Returns:
- the operator, as a string
-
