Class Atomizer

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, SourceLocator, Container, Expression, InstructionInfoProvider

public final class Atomizer extends UnaryExpression
An Atomizer is an expression corresponding essentially to the fn:data() function: it maps a sequence by replacing nodes with their typed values

    • Atomizer

      public Atomizer(Expression sequence, Configuration config)
      Constructor
      Parameters:
      sequence - the sequence to be atomized
      config - the Configuration. Used only for optimization, may be null. Atomization is faster if it is known in advance that all nodes will be untyped.

    • simplify

      public Expression simplify(StaticContext env) throws XPathException
      Simplify an expression
      Specified by:
      simplify in interface Expression
      Overrides:
      simplify in class UnaryExpression
      Parameters:
      env - the static context
      Returns:
      the simplified expression
      Throws:
      XPathException - if an error is discovered during expression rewriting
    • typeCheck

      public Expression typeCheck(StaticContext env, ItemType contextItemType) throws XPathException
      Type-check the expression
      Specified by:
      typeCheck in interface Expression
      Overrides:
      typeCheck in class UnaryExpression
      Parameters:
      env - the static context of the expression
      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
    • computeSpecialProperties

      public int computeSpecialProperties()
      Determine the special properties of this expression
      Overrides:
      computeSpecialProperties in class UnaryExpression
      Returns:
      StaticProperty.NON_CREATIVE.
    • iterate

      public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context) throws XPathException
      Iterate over the sequence of values
      Specified by:
      iterate in interface Expression
      Overrides:
      iterate in class ComputedExpression
      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

      public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext context) throws XPathException
      Evaluate as an Item. This should only be called if the Atomizer has cardinality zero-or-one, which will only be the case if the underlying expression has cardinality zero-or-one.
      Specified by:
      evaluateItem in interface Expression
      Overrides:
      evaluateItem in class ComputedExpression
      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

      public ItemType getItemType(TypeHierarchy th)
      Determine the data type of the items returned by the expression, if possible
      Specified by:
      getItemType in interface Expression
      Overrides:
      getItemType in class UnaryExpression
      Parameters:
      th -
      Returns:
      a value such as Type.STRING, Type.BOOLEAN, Type.NUMBER. For this class, the result is always an atomic type, but it might be more specific.
    • getAtomizedItemType

      public static final ItemType getAtomizedItemType(Expression operand, boolean alwaysUntyped, TypeHierarchy th)
      Compute the type that will result from atomizing the result of a given expression
      Parameters:
      operand - the given expression
      alwaysUntyped - true if it is known that nodes will always be untyped
      Returns:
      the item type of the result of evaluating the operand expression, after atomization
    • computeCardinality

      public int computeCardinality()
      Determine the static cardinality of the expression
      Overrides:
      computeCardinality in class UnaryExpression
    • displayOperator

      protected String displayOperator(Configuration config)
      Give a string representation of the operator for use in diagnostics
      Specified by:
      displayOperator in class UnaryExpression
      Parameters:
      config -
      Returns:
      the operator, as a string
