Method Detail

checkArguments

public void checkArguments(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                    throws XPathException
Description copied from class: SystemFunction
Method called during static type checking

Overrides:
checkArguments in class Available
Parameters:
visitor - the expression visitor
Throws:
XPathException - if the arguments are incorrect

preEvaluate

public Expression preEvaluate(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                       throws XPathException
preEvaluate: this method uses the static context to do early evaluation of the function if the argument is known (which is the normal case)

Overrides:
preEvaluate in class FunctionCall
Parameters:
visitor - the expression visitor
Returns:
the result of the early evaluation, or the original expression, or potentially a simplified expression
Throws:
XPathException - if evaluation fails

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 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
