Method Detail

simplify

public Expression simplify(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                    throws XPathException

Simplify and validate.

Overrides:

simplify in class FunctionCall

Parameters:

visitor - an expression visitor

Returns:

the simplified expression

Throws:

XPathException - if an error is discovered during expression rewriting

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext c)
                  throws XPathException

Evaluate the function in a string 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
