Class UserFunctionReference.BoundUserFunction

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Callable, ContextOriginator, Function, GroundedValue, Item, Sequence
    Enclosing class:
    UserFunctionReference

    public static class UserFunctionReference.BoundUserFunction
    extends AbstractFunction
    implements ContextOriginator
    A BoundUserFunction represents a user-defined function seen as a component. A single source-level XSLT function may be the actor in several different components (in different stylesheet packages). Although the code of the function is identical in each case, the bindings to other stylesheet components may be different.

      • getDescription

        public java.lang.String getDescription()
        Description copied from interface: Function
        Get a description of this function for use in error messages. For named functions, the description is the function name (as a lexical QName). For others, it might be, for example, "inline function", or "partially-applied ends-with function".
        Specified by:
        getDescription in interface Function
        Returns:
        a description of the function for use in error messages
