Method Detail

typeCheck

public Expression typeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                            ExpressionVisitor.ContextItemType 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:
visitor - an expression visitor
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:
XPathException - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext c)
                  throws XPathException
Evaluate in a general context

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

call

public SequenceIterator 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
