Method Detail

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext c)
                  throws XPathException

Evaluate the function

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

getNilledProperty

public static BooleanValue getNilledProperty(NodeInfo node)

Determine whether a node has the nilled property

Parameters:

node - the node in question (if null, the function returns null)

Returns:

the value of the nilled accessor. Returns null for any node other than an element node. For an element node, returns true if the element has been validated and has an xsi:nil attribute whose value is true.

isNilled

public static boolean isNilled(NodeInfo node)

Determine whether a node is nilled. Returns true if the value of the nilled property is true; false if the value is false or absent

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
