public final class ValueOf
extends SimpleNodeConstructor

An xsl:value-of element in the stylesheet.
The xsl:value-of element takes attributes:

• a mandatory attribute select="expression". This must be a valid String expression
• an optional disable-output-escaping attribute, value "yes" or "no"
• an optional separator attribute. This is handled at compile-time: if the separator attribute is present, the select expression passed in here will be a call to the string-join() function.

Constructor Detail

ValueOf

public ValueOf(Expression select,
               boolean disable,
               boolean noNodeIfEmpty)

Create a new ValueOf expression

Parameters:

select - the select expression

disable - true if disable-output-escaping is in force

noNodeIfEmpty - true if the instruction is to return () if the select expression is (), false if it is to return an empty text node

Method Detail

setIsNumberingInstruction

public void setIsNumberingInstruction()

Indicate that this is really an xsl:nunber instruction

isNumberingInstruction

public boolean isNumberingInstruction()

Determine whether this is really an xsl:number instruction

Returns:

true if this derives from xsl:number

getInstructionNameCode

public int getInstructionNameCode()

Get the name of this instruction for diagnostic and tracing purposes

Overrides:

getInstructionNameCode in class Instruction

Returns:

the namecode of the instruction name

getOptions

public int getOptions()

Test for any special options such as disable-output-escaping

Returns:

any special options

getItemType

public ItemType getItemType(TypeHierarchy th)

Description copied from class: Instruction

Get the item type of the items returned by evaluating this instruction

Overrides:

getItemType in class Instruction

Parameters:

th - the type hierarchy cache

Returns:

the static item type of the instruction

computeCardinality

public int computeCardinality()

Description copied from class: SimpleNodeConstructor

Get the cardinality of the sequence returned by evaluating this instruction

Overrides:

computeCardinality in class SimpleNodeConstructor

Returns:

the static cardinality

localTypeCheck

public void localTypeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                           ItemType contextItemType)

Description copied from class: SimpleNodeConstructor

Method to perform type-checking specific to the kind of instruction

Specified by:

localTypeCheck in class SimpleNodeConstructor

Parameters:

visitor - an expression visitor

contextItemType - the static type of the context item

copy

public Expression copy()

Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.

Specified by:

copy in class Expression

Returns:

the copy of the original expression

checkPermittedContents

public void checkPermittedContents(SchemaType parentType,
                                   StaticContext env,
                                   boolean whole)
                            throws XPathException

Check statically that the results of the expression are capable of constructing the content of a given schema type.

Overrides:

checkPermittedContents in class Expression

Parameters:

parentType - The schema type

env - the static context

whole - true if this expression is to account for the whole value of the type

Throws:

XPathException - if the expression doesn't match the required content type

convertToStringJoin

public Expression convertToStringJoin(StaticContext env)

Convert this value-of instruction to an expression that delivers the string-value of the resulting text node. This will often be a call on the string-join function.

Parameters:

env - the static evaluation context
