Constructor Detail

AdjacentTextNodeMerger

public AdjacentTextNodeMerger(Expression p0)

Method Detail

makeAdjacentTextNodeMerger

public static Expression makeAdjacentTextNodeMerger(Expression base)

Make an AdjacentTextNodeMerger expression with a given operand, or a simpler equivalent expression if appropriate

Parameters:

base - the operand expression

Returns:

an AdjacentTextNodeMerger or equivalent expression

simplify

public Expression simplify(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                    throws XPathException

Description copied from class: UnaryExpression

Simplify an expression

Overrides:

simplify in class UnaryExpression

Parameters:

visitor - an expression visitor

Returns:

the simplified expression

Throws:

XPathException - if an error is discovered during expression rewriting

typeCheck

public Expression typeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                   ExpressionVisitor.ContextItemType contextItemType)
                     throws XPathException

Description copied from class: UnaryExpression

Type-check the expression. Default implementation for unary operators that accept any kind of operand

Overrides:

typeCheck in class UnaryExpression

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)

getItemType

public ItemType getItemType(TypeHierarchy th)

Determine the data type of the expression, if possible. The default implementation for unary expressions returns the item type of the operand

Overrides:

getItemType in class UnaryExpression

Parameters:

th - the type hierarchy cache

Returns:

the item type of the items in the result sequence, insofar as this is known statically.

computeCardinality

public int computeCardinality()

Description copied from class: UnaryExpression

Determine the static cardinality. Default implementation returns the cardinality of the operand

Overrides:

computeCardinality in class UnaryExpression

Returns:

the computed cardinality, as one of the values StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ZERO_OR_ONE, StaticProperty.EXACTLY_ONE, StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ONE_OR_MORE, StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ZERO_OR_MORE

copy

public Expression copy()

Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.

Specified by:

copy in class Expression

Returns:

the copy of the original expression

getImplementationMethod

public int getImplementationMethod()

An implementation of Expression must provide at least one of the methods evaluateItem(), iterate(), or process(). This method indicates which of these methods is prefered.

Overrides:

getImplementationMethod in class Expression

Returns:

the implementation method, for example Expression.ITERATE_METHOD or Expression.EVALUATE_METHOD or Expression.PROCESS_METHOD

getExpressionCompiler

public ExpressionCompiler getExpressionCompiler()

Description copied from class: Expression

Return the compiler relating to a particular expression

Overrides:

getExpressionCompiler in class Expression

Returns:

the relevant ExpressionCompiler

getStreamability

public int getStreamability(int syntacticContext,
                   boolean allowExtensions,
                   List<String> reasons)

Description copied from class: Expression

Get the "sweep" of this expression as defined in the W3C streamability specifications. This provides an assessment of stylesheet code against the W3C criteria for guaranteed streamability, and is implemented to allow these criteria to be tested. It is not the case that all expression that emerge as streamable from this analysis are currently capable of being streamed by Saxon

Overrides:

getStreamability in class Expression

Parameters:

syntacticContext - one of the values Expression.NAVIGATION_CONTEXT, Expression.NODE_VALUE_CONTEXT, Expression.INHERITED_CONTEXT, Expression.INSPECTION_CONTEXT

allowExtensions - if false, the definition of "guaranteed streamability" in the W3C specification is used. If true, Saxon extensions are permitted, which make some

reasons - the caller may supply a list, in which case the implementation may add to this list a message explaining why the construct is not streamable, suitable for inclusion in an error message.

Returns:

one of the values Expression.W3C_MOTIONLESS, Expression.W3C_CONSUMING, Expression.W3C_GROUP_CONSUMING, Expression.W3C_FREE_RANGING

getStreamingAdjunct

public AdjacentTextNodeMergerAdjunct getStreamingAdjunct()

Description copied from class: Expression

Get a class that supports streamed evaluation of this expression

Overrides:

getStreamingAdjunct in class Expression

Returns:

the relevant StreamingAdjunct, or null if none is available

iterate

public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context)
                         throws XPathException

Return an Iterator to iterate over the values of a sequence. The value of every expression can be regarded as a sequence, so this method is supported for all expressions. This default implementation handles iteration for expressions that return singleton values: for non-singleton expressions, the subclass must provide its own implementation.

Overrides:

iterate in class Expression

Parameters:

context - supplies the context for evaluation

Returns:

a SequenceIterator that can be used to iterate over the result of the expression

Throws:

XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

process

public void process(XPathContext context,
           int locationId,
           int options)
             throws XPathException

Process the instruction, without returning any tail calls

Parameters:

context - The dynamic context, giving access to the current node, the current variables, etc.

Throws:

XPathException

getExpressionName

public String getExpressionName()

Description copied from class: Expression

Get a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user.

Overrides:

getExpressionName in class Expression

Returns:

a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user. The name will always be in the form of a lexical XML QName, and should match the name used in explain() output displaying the expression.

isTextNode

public static boolean isTextNode(Item item)

Ask whether an item is a text node

Parameters:

item - the item in question

Returns:

true if the item is a node of kind text
