Method Detail

preEvaluate

public Expression preEvaluate(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

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

Overrides:

preEvaluate in class FunctionCall

Parameters:

visitor - an expression visitor

Returns:

the result of the early evaluation, or the original expression, or potentially a simplified expression

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                  throws XPathException

Run-time evaluation.

Overrides:

evaluateItem in class Expression

Parameters:

context - 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

call

public SequenceIterator<StringValue> call(SequenceIterator[] arguments,
                                          XPathContext context)
                                   throws XPathException

Evaluate the expression

Specified by:

call in interface CallableExpression

Parameters:

arguments - the values of the arguments, supplied as SequenceIterators

context - the dynamic evaluation context

Returns:

the result of the evaluation, in the form of a SequenceIterator

Throws:

XPathException - if a dynamic error occurs during the evaluation of the expression
