public final class TailCallLoop
extends UnaryExpression

A TailCallLoop wraps the body of a function that contains tail-recursive function calls. On completion of the "real" body of the function it tests whether the function has executed a tail call, and if so, iterates to evaluate the tail call.

Constructor Detail

TailCallLoop

public TailCallLoop(UserFunction function,
                    Expression body)

Constructor - create a TailCallLoop

Parameters:

function - the function in which this tail call loop appears

body - the function body (before wrapping in the tail call loop)

Method Detail

getContainingFunction

public UserFunction getContainingFunction()

Get the containing function

Returns:

the containing function

typeCheck

public Expression typeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                            ContextItemStaticInfo contextInfo)
                     throws XPathException

Type-check the expression

Overrides:

typeCheck in class UnaryExpression

Parameters:

visitor - an expression visitor

contextInfo - 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)

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. This implementation provides both iterate() and process() methods natively.

Specified by:

getImplementationMethod in class Expression

Returns:

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

getOperandRole

protected OperandRole getOperandRole()

Description copied from class: UnaryExpression

Get the usage (in terms of streamability analysis) of the single operand

Specified by:

getOperandRole in class UnaryExpression

Returns:

the operand usage

copy

public Expression copy(RebindingMap rebindings)

Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.

Specified by:

copy in class Expression

Parameters:

rebindings - Variables whose binding needs to change

Returns:

the copy of the original expression

iterate

public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context)
                         throws XPathException

Iterate over the sequence of values

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

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                  throws XPathException

Evaluate as an Item.

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

process

public void process(Outputter output,
                    XPathContext context)
             throws XPathException

Process the function body

Overrides:

process in class Expression

Parameters:

output - the destination for the result

context - The dynamic context, giving access to the current node,

Throws:

XPathException - if a dynamic error occurs

getItemType

public ItemType getItemType()

Determine the data type of the items returned by the expression

Overrides:

getItemType in class UnaryExpression

Returns:

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

getExpressionName

public java.lang.String getExpressionName()

Give a string representation of the expression name for use in diagnostics

Overrides:

getExpressionName in class Expression

Returns:

the expression name, as a string
