Details
This function returns the result of evaluating the supplied stored expression. A stored expression may be obtained as the result of calling the saxon:expression function.
The stored expression is evaluated in the current dynamic context, that is, the context
node is the current node, and the context position and context size are the same as the
result of calling position()
or last()
respectively.
The second and subsequent arguments to saxon:eval
supply values for the
variables $p1
, $p2
, etc. within the stored expression. For
details see saxon:expression
.
