Method Detail
-
setInstruction
public void setInstruction(boolean inst)
Say whether this expression originates as an XSLT instruction- Parameters:
inst
- true if this is an xsl:variable instruction
-
isInstruction
public boolean isInstruction()
Ask whether this expression is an instruction. In XSLT streamability analysis this is used to distinguish constructs corresponding to XSLT instructions from other constructs.- Overrides:
isInstruction
in classExpression
- Returns:
- true if this construct originates as an XSLT instruction
-
getExpressionName
public java.lang.String getExpressionName()
Get a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user.- Overrides:

-
setNeedsEagerEvaluation
public void setNeedsEagerEvaluation(boolean req)
Say that this variable must be evaluated eagerly. This is a requirement for example for variables appearing within a try/catch, or for variables referenced from within a construct that uses multi-threading, for example xsl:result-document or a multi-threaded xsl:for-each.- Parameters:
req
- set to true if eager evaluation is required
-
setNeedsLazyEvaluation
public void setNeedsLazyEvaluation(boolean req)
-
isNeedsLazyEvaluation
public boolean isNeedsLazyEvaluation()
-
isLiftable
public boolean isLiftable(boolean forStreaming)
Ask whether the expression can be lifted out of a loop, assuming it has no dependencies on the controlling variable/focus of the loop- Overrides:
isLiftable
in classExpression
- Parameters:
forStreaming
- true if we are handling streaming code (where rewrites need to be more cautious)- Returns:
- true if the expression can be loop lifted
-
resetLocalStaticProperties
public void resetLocalStaticProperties()
Description copied from class:Expression
Reset the static properties of the expression to -1, so that they have to be recomputed next time they are used.- Overrides:
resetLocalStaticProperties
in classExpression
-
typeCheck
public Expression typeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ContextItemStaticInfo contextInfo) throws XPathException
Type-check the expression. This also has the side-effect of counting the number of references to the variable (treating references that occur within a loop specially)- Overrides:
typeCheck
in classExpression
- Parameters:
visitor
- an expression visitorcontextInfo
- Information available statically about the context item: whether it is (possibly) absent; its static type; its streaming posture.- 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)
-
implementsStaticTypeCheck
public boolean implementsStaticTypeCheck()
Determine whether this expression implements its own method for static type checking- Overrides:
implementsStaticTypeCheck
in classExpression
- Returns:
- true - this expression has a non-trivial implementation of the staticTypeCheck() method
-
staticTypeCheck
public Expression staticTypeCheck(SequenceType req, boolean backwardsCompatible, RoleDiagnostic role, ExpressionVisitor visitor) throws XPathException
Static type checking for let expressions is delegated to the expression itself, and is performed on the "action" expression, to allow further delegation to the branches of a conditional- Overrides:
staticTypeCheck
in classExpression
- Parameters:
req
- the required typebackwardsCompatible
- true if backwards compatibility mode appliesrole
- the role of the expression in relation to the required typevisitor
- an expression visitor- Returns:
- the expression after type checking (perhaps augmented with dynamic type checking code)
- Throws:
XPathException
- if failures occur, for example if the static type of one branch of the conditional is incompatible with the required type
-
optimize
public Expression optimize(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ContextItemStaticInfo contextItemType) throws XPathException
Perform optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions.This method is called after all references to functions and variables have been resolved to the declaration of the function or variable, and after all type checking has been done.
- Overrides:
optimize
in classExpression
- Parameters:
visitor
- an expression visitorcontextItemType
- 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 toType.ITEM_TYPE
- Returns:
- the original expression, rewritten if appropriate to optimize execution
- Throws:
XPathException
- if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)
-
setEvaluator
public void setEvaluator()
-
getCost
public double getCost()
Return the estimated cost of evaluating an expression. This is a very crude measure based on the syntactic form of the expression (we have no knowledge of data values). We take the cost of evaluating a simple scalar comparison or arithmetic expression as 1 (one), and we assume that a sequence has length 5. The resulting estimates may be used, for example, to reorder the predicates in a filter expression so cheaper predicates are evaluated first.- Overrides:
getCost
in classAssignation
- Returns:
- a rough estimate of the evaluation cost
-
isVacuousExpression
public boolean isVacuousExpression()
Determine whether this is a vacuous expression as defined in the XQuery update specification- Overrides:
isVacuousExpression
in classExpression
- Returns:
- true if this expression is vacuous
-
checkPermittedContents
public void checkPermittedContents(SchemaType parentType, boolean whole) throws XPathException
Check that any elements and attributes constructed or returned by this expression are acceptable in the content model of a given complex type. It's always OK to say yes, since the check will be repeated at run-time. The process of checking element and attribute constructors against the content model of a complex type also registers the type of content expected of those constructors, so the static validation can continue recursively.- Overrides:
checkPermittedContents
in classExpression
- Parameters:
parentType
- the "given complex type": the method is checking that the nodes returned by this expression are acceptable members of the content model of this typewhole
- if true, we want to check that the value of this expression satisfies the content model as a whole; if false we want to check that the value of the expression is acceptable as one part of the content- Throws:
XPathException
- if the value delivered by this expression cannot be part of the content model of the given type
-
getIntegerBounds
public IntegerValue[] getIntegerBounds()
For an expression that returns an integer or a sequence of integers, get a lower and upper bound on the values of the integers that may be returned, from static analysis. The default implementation returns null, meaning "unknown" or "not applicable". Other implementations return an array of two IntegerValue objects, representing the lower and upper bounds respectively. The values UNBOUNDED_LOWER and UNBOUNDED_UPPER are used by convention to indicate that the value may be arbitrarily large. The values MAX_STRING_LENGTH and MAX_SEQUENCE_LENGTH are used to indicate values limited by the size of a string or the size of a sequence.- Overrides:
getIntegerBounds
in classExpression
- Returns:
- the lower and upper bounds of integer values in the result, or null to indicate unknown or not applicable.
-
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 provided directly. The other methods will always be available indirectly, using an implementation that relies on one of the other methods.- Specified by:
