Package net.sf.saxon.functions

Class DynamicContextAccessor

java.lang.Object

net.sf.saxon.functions.AbstractFunction

net.sf.saxon.functions.SystemFunction

net.sf.saxon.functions.DynamicContextAccessor

All Implemented Interfaces:

Callable, Function, GroundedValue, Item, Sequence

Direct Known Subclasses:

DynamicContextAccessor.CurrentDate, DynamicContextAccessor.CurrentDateTime, DynamicContextAccessor.CurrentTime, DynamicContextAccessor.DefaultLanguage, DynamicContextAccessor.ImplicitTimezone

public abstract class DynamicContextAccessor
extends SystemFunction

A DynamicContextAccessor is a function that takes no arguments, but operates implicitly on the dynamic context. In the case of a dynamic call, the context item that is used is the one at the point where the function item is created.

Method Detail

bindContext

public void bindContext(XPathContext context)
                 throws XPathException

Throws:

XPathException

evaluate

public abstract AtomicValue evaluate(XPathContext context)
                              throws XPathException

Throws:

XPathException

call

public AtomicValue call(XPathContext context,
                        Sequence[] arguments)
                 throws XPathException

Evaluate the expression

Parameters:

context - the dynamic evaluation context

arguments - the values of the arguments, supplied as Sequences

Returns:

the result of the evaluation, in the form of a Sequence

Throws:

XPathException - if a dynamic error occurs during the evaluation of the expression

makeFunctionCall

public Expression makeFunctionCall(Expression[] arguments)

Description copied from class: SystemFunction

Make an expression that either calls this function, or that is equivalent to a call on this function

Overrides:

makeFunctionCall in class SystemFunction

Parameters:

arguments - the supplied arguments to the function call

Returns:

either a function call on this function, or an expression that delivers the same result
