Type-check the expression

Overrides:
typeCheck in class Expression
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:
StaticError - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)
XPathException

optimize

public Expression optimize(Optimizer opt,
                           StaticContext env,
                           ItemType contextItemType)
                    throws XPathException
Description copied from class: Expression
Perform optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions. This is the third and final phase of static optimization.

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:
opt - the optimizer in use. This provides access to supporting functions; it also allows different optimization strategies to be used in different circumstances.
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 if appropriate to optimize execution
Throws:
StaticError - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)
XPathException

promote

public Expression promote(PromotionOffer offer)
                   throws XPathException
Promote this expression if possible

Overrides:
promote in class Expression
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
Returns:
if the offer is not accepted, return this expression unchanged. Otherwise return the result of rewriting the expression to promote this subexpression
Throws:
XPathException - if any error is detected

iterateSubExpressions

public Iterator iterateSubExpressions()
Get the immediate subexpressions of this expression

Overrides:
iterateSubExpressions in class Expression
Returns:
an iterator containing the sub-expressions of this expression

replaceSubExpression

public boolean replaceSubExpression(Expression original,
                                    Expression replacement)
Replace one subexpression by a replacement subexpression

Specified by:
replaceSubExpression in interface Container
Overrides:
replaceSubExpression in class Expression
Parameters:
original - the original subexpression
replacement - the replacement subexpression
Returns:
true if the original subexpression is found

suppressValidation

public void suppressValidation(int validationMode)
Suppress validation on contained element constructors, on the grounds that the parent element is already performing validation. The default implementation does nothing.

Overrides:
suppressValidation in class Expression

markTailFunctionCalls

public int markTailFunctionCalls(int nameCode,
                                 int arity)
Mark tail-recursive calls on stylesheet functions. For most expressions, this does nothing.

Overrides:
markTailFunctionCalls in class Expression
Returns:
0 if no tail call was found; 1 if a tail call on a different function was found; 2 if a tail recursive call was found and if this call accounts for the whole of the value.

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
Throws:
XPathException

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                  throws XPathException
Evaluate the conditional expression in a given context

Specified by:
evaluateItem in interface EvaluableItem
Overrides:
evaluateItem in class Expression
Parameters:
context - the evaluation context
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

iterate

public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context)
                         throws XPathException
Iterate the path-expression in a given context

Specified by:
iterate in interface SequenceIterable
Overrides:
iterate in class Expression
Parameters:
context - the evaluation context
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

process

public void process(XPathContext context)
             throws XPathException
Process this expression as an instruction, writing results to the current receiver

Overrides:
process in class Expression
Parameters:
context - The dynamic context, giving access to the current node, the current variables, etc.
Throws:
XPathException

processLeavingTail

public TailCall processLeavingTail(XPathContext context)
                            throws XPathException
ProcessLeavingTail: called to do the real work of this instruction. This method must be implemented in each subclass. The results of the instruction are written to the current Receiver, which can be obtained via the Controller.

Specified by:
processLeavingTail in interface TailCallReturner
Parameters:
context - The dynamic context of the transformation, giving access to the current node, the current variables, etc.
Returns:
null if the instruction has completed execution; or a TailCall indicating a function call or template call that is delegated to the caller, to be made after the stack has been unwound so as to save stack space.
Throws:
XPathException

getItemType

public ItemType getItemType(TypeHierarchy th)
Get data type of items in sequence returned by expression

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

computeCardinality

public int computeCardinality()
Determine the static cardinality of the result


computeSpecialProperties

public int computeSpecialProperties()
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.

Overrides:
computeSpecialProperties in class Expression

public void display(int level,
                    PrintStream out,
                    Configuration config)

level - indentation level for this expression
out - Output destination
