Method Detail

makeSearchableValue

public static SearchableValue makeSearchableValue(SequenceIterator iter)
                                           throws XPathException

Throws:

XPathException

iterate

public UnfailingIterator iterate()

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.

Specified by:

iterate in interface GroundedValue

Specified by:

iterate in interface Sequence

Returns:

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

itemAt

public Item itemAt(int n)

Get the n'th item in the sequence (starting from 0). This is defined for all Values, but its real benefits come for a sequence Value stored extensionally (or for a MemoClosure, once all the values have been read)

Specified by:

itemAt in interface GroundedValue

Parameters:

n - position of the required item, counting from zero.

Returns:

the n'th item in the sequence, where the first item in the sequence is numbered zero. If n is negative or >= the length of the sequence, returns null.

getLength

public int getLength()

Get the length of the sequence

Specified by:

getLength in interface GroundedValue

Returns:

the number of items in the sequence. Note that for a single item, including a map or array, the result is always 1 (one).

findItems

public abstract SequenceIterator findItems(Expression use,
                                           SequenceIterator values,
                                           boolean convertUntypedToOther,
                                           boolean firstOnly,
                                           AtomicComparer comparer,
                                           XPathContext context)
                                    throws XPathException

Retrieve items that match a given index value

Parameters:

use - the expression whose value is to be matched

values - the set of values to be found

convertUntypedToOther - true if untypedAtomic values are to be converted to the type of the other operand

firstOnly - true if only the first matching item is required

comparer - AtomicComparer used to compare values for equality (encapsulates a collation if necessary)

context - the dynamic evaluation context @return an iterator over the items that match the specified values

Returns:

an iterator over the items that matched

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

subsequence

public GroundedValue subsequence(int start,
                                 int length)

Get a subsequence of the value

Specified by:

subsequence in interface GroundedValue

Parameters:

start - the index of the first item to be included in the result, counting from zero. A negative value is taken as zero. If the value is beyond the end of the sequence, an empty sequence is returned

length - the number of items to be included in the result. Specify Integer.MAX_VALUE to get the subsequence up to the end of the base sequence. If the value is negative, an empty sequence is returned. If the value goes off the end of the sequence, the result returns items up to the end of the sequence

Returns:

the required subsequence. If min is

effectiveBooleanValue

public boolean effectiveBooleanValue()
                              throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: GroundedValue

Get the effective boolean value of this sequence

Specified by:

effectiveBooleanValue in interface GroundedValue

Returns:

the effective boolean value

Throws:

XPathException - if the sequence has no effective boolean value (for example a sequence of two integers)

getStringValue

public java.lang.String getStringValue()
                                throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: GroundedValue

Get the string value of this sequence. The string value of an item is the result of applying the string() function. The string value of a sequence is the space-separated result of applying the string-join() function using a single space as the separator

Specified by:

getStringValue in interface GroundedValue

Returns:

the string value of the sequence.

Throws:

XPathException - if the sequence contains items that have no string value (for example, function items)

getStringValueCS

public java.lang.CharSequence getStringValueCS()
                                        throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: GroundedValue

Get the string value of this sequence. The string value of an item is the result of applying the string() function. The string value of a sequence is the space-separated result of applying the string-join() function using a single space as the separator

Specified by:

getStringValueCS in interface GroundedValue

Returns:

the string value of the sequence.

Throws:

XPathException - if the sequence contains items that have no string value (for example, function items)

head

public Item head()

Get the first item in the sequence.

Specified by:

head in interface GroundedValue

Specified by:

head in interface Sequence

Returns:

the first item in the sequence if there is one, or null if the sequence is empty

reduce

public GroundedValue reduce()

Reduce the sequence to its simplest form. If the value is an empty sequence, the result will be EmptySequence.getInstance(). If the value is a single atomic value, the result will be an instance of AtomicValue. If the value is a single item of any other kind, the result will be an instance of SingletonItem. Otherwise, the result will typically be unchanged.

Specified by:

reduce in interface GroundedValue

Returns:

the simplified sequence
