Constructor Detail

GlobalVariable

public GlobalVariable()

Method Detail

getExecutable

public Executable getExecutable()

Description copied from class: Expression

Get the executable containing this expression

Specified by:

getExecutable in interface Container

Overrides:

getExecutable in class Expression

setExecutable

public void setExecutable(Executable executable)

setHostLanguage

public void setHostLanguage(int language)

getHostLanguage

public int getHostLanguage()

Description copied from class: Expression

Get the host language (XSLT, XQuery, XPath) used to implement the code in this container

Specified by:

getHostLanguage in interface Container

Overrides:

getHostLanguage in class Expression

Returns:

typically Configuration.XSLT or Configuration.XQUERY

setContainsLocals

public void setContainsLocals(SlotManager map)

The expression that initializes a global variable may itself use local variables. In this case a stack frame needs to be allocated while evaluating the global variable

Parameters:

map - The stack frame map for local variables used while evaluating this global variable.

isGlobal

public boolean isGlobal()

Is this a global variable?

Specified by:

isGlobal in interface Binding

Overrides:

isGlobal in class GeneralVariable

Returns:

true (yes, it is a global variable)

lookForCycles

public void lookForCycles(Stack referees)
                   throws StaticError

Check for cycles in this variable definition

Parameters:

referees - the calls leading up to this one; it's an error if this variable is on the stack, because that means it calls itself directly or indirectly. The stack may contain variable definitions (GlobalVariable objects) and user-defined functions (UserFunction objects). It will never contain the same object more than once.

Throws:

StaticError

processLeavingTail

public TailCall processLeavingTail(XPathContext context)
                            throws XPathException

Process the variable declaration

Specified by:

processLeavingTail in interface TailCallReturner

Specified by:

processLeavingTail in class Instruction

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

getSelectValue

public ValueRepresentation getSelectValue(XPathContext context)
                                   throws XPathException

Evaluate the variable. That is, get the value of the select expression if present or the content of the element otherwise, either as a tree or as a sequence

Overrides:

getSelectValue in class GeneralVariable

Throws:

XPathException

evaluateVariable

public ValueRepresentation evaluateVariable(XPathContext context)
                                     throws XPathException

Evaluate the variable

Throws:

XPathException

getInstructionInfo

public InstructionInfo getInstructionInfo()

Get InstructionInfo for this expression

Specified by:

getInstructionInfo in interface InstructionInfoProvider

Overrides:

getInstructionInfo in class Instruction
