    • Method Detail

      • getExpressionName

        public java.lang.String getExpressionName()
        Get a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user.
        Overrides:
        getExpressionName in class Expression
        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.
      • setRefCount

        public void setRefCount​(int refCount)
      • typeCheck

        public Expression typeCheck​(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                                    ExpressionVisitor.ContextItemType contextItemType)
                             throws XPathException
        Type-check the expression. This also has the side-effect of counting the number of references to the variable (treating references that occur within a loop specially)
        Overrides:
        typeCheck in class Expression
        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)
      • implementsStaticTypeCheck

        public boolean implementsStaticTypeCheck()
        Determine whether this expression implements its own method for static type checking
        Overrides:
        implementsStaticTypeCheck in class Expression
        Returns:
        true - this expression has a non-trivial implementation of the staticTypeCheck() method
      • staticTypeCheck

        public Expression staticTypeCheck​(SequenceType req,
                                          boolean backwardsCompatible,
                                          RoleLocator role,
                                          TypeCheckerEnvironment visitor)
                                   throws XPathException
        Static type checking for let expressions is delegated to the expression itself, and is performed on the "action" expression, to allow further delegation to the branches of a conditional
        Overrides:
        staticTypeCheck in class Expression
        Parameters:
        req - the required type
        backwardsCompatible - true if backwards compatibility mode applies
        role - the role of the expression in relation to the required type
        visitor - an expression visitor
        Returns:
        the expression after type checking (perhaps augmented with dynamic type checking code)
        Throws:
        XPathException - if failures occur, for example if the static type of one branch of the conditional is incompatible with the required type
      • optimize

        public Expression optimize​(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                                   ExpressionVisitor.ContextItemType contextItemType)
                            throws XPathException
        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 class Expression
        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 if appropriate to optimize execution
        Throws:
        XPathException - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)

        Overrides:
        replaceSubExpression in class Assignation
        Parameters:
        original - the original subexpression
        replacement - the replacement subexpression
        Returns:

        Overrides:
        isVacuousExpression in class Expression
        Returns:
        true if this expression is vacuous
      • checkPermittedContents

        public void checkPermittedContents​(SchemaType parentType,
                                           StaticContext env,
                                           boolean whole)
                                    throws XPathException
        Check that any elements and attributes constructed or returned by this expression are acceptable in the content model of a given complex type. It's always OK to say yes, since the check will be repeated at run-time. The process of checking element and attribute constructors against the content model of a complex type also registers the type of content expected of those constructors, so the static validation can continue recursively.
        Overrides:
        checkPermittedContents in class Expression
        Parameters:
        parentType - the "given complex type": the method is checking that the nodes returned by this expression are acceptable members of the content model of this type
        env - the static context
        whole - if true, we want to check that the value of this expression satisfies the content model as a whole; if false we want to check that the value of the expression is acceptable as one part of the content
        Throws:
        XPathException - if the value delivered by this expression cannot be part of the content model of the given type
      • getIntegerBounds

        public IntegerValue[] getIntegerBounds()
        For an expression that returns an integer or a sequence of integers, get a lower and upper bound on the values of the integers that may be returned, from static analysis. The default implementation returns null, meaning "unknown" or "not applicable". Other implementations return an array of two IntegerValue objects, representing the lower and upper bounds respectively. The values UNBOUNDED_LOWER and UNBOUNDED_UPPER are used by convention to indicate that the value may be arbitrarily large. The values MAX_STRING_LENGTH and MAX_SEQUENCE_LENGTH are used to indicate values limited by the size of a string or the size of a sequence.
        Overrides:
        getIntegerBounds in class Expression
        Returns:
        the lower and upper bounds of integer values in the result, or null to indicate unknown or not applicable.

        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.

        XPathException - if a dynamic error occurs during the evaluation of the instruction
      • evaluatePendingUpdates

        public void evaluatePendingUpdates​(XPathContext context,

      • toString

        public java.lang.String toString()
        The toString() method for an expression attempts to give a representation of the expression in an XPath-like form, but there is no guarantee that the syntax will actually be true XPath. In the case of XSLT instructions, the toString() method gives an abstracted view of the syntax
        Overrides:
        toString in class Expression
        Returns:
        a representation of the expression as a string
      • explain

        Specified by:
        explain in class Expression
        Parameters:
        out - the expression presenter used to display the structure
