public class AnalyzeStringFunction
extends CompileTimeFunction

This class implements the extension function saxon:analyze-string(). This is a higher order function that provides functionality similar to the XSLT 2.0 xsl:analyze-string instruction, but it works also in XQuery. The first argument is the string to be analyzed; the second is a string containing the regex. The third argument is a function to be invoked once for each matching substring; the fourth argument is a function to be invoked once for each non-matching substring. The fifth optional argument is the regular expression flags.

simplify

public Expression simplify(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                    throws XPathException

Description copied from class: FunctionCall

Simplify the function call. Default method is to simplify each of the supplied arguments and evaluate the function if all are now known.

Overrides:

simplify in class FunctionCall

Parameters:

visitor - an expression visitor

Returns:

the simplified expression

Throws:

XPathException - if an error is discovered during expression rewriting
