Method Detail

preEvaluate

public Expression preEvaluate(StaticContext env)

preEvaluate: this method suppresses compile-time evaluation by doing nothing

Overrides:

preEvaluate in class FunctionCall

typeCheck

public Expression typeCheck(StaticContext env,
                            ItemType contextItemType)
                     throws XPathException

Description copied from class: FunctionCall

Type-check the expression. This also calls preEvaluate() to evaluate the function if all the arguments are constant; functions that do not require this behavior can override the preEvaluate method.

Overrides:

typeCheck in class FunctionCall

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

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext c)
                  throws XPathException

Evaluate in a general context

Specified by:

evaluateItem in interface EvaluableItem

Overrides:

evaluateItem in class Expression

Parameters:

c - 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

getIntrinsicDependencies

public int getIntrinsicDependencies()

Determine the 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

isLang

public static boolean isLang(String arglang,
                             NodeInfo target)

Test whether the context node has the given language attribute

Parameters:

arglang - the language being tested

target - the target node
