Package net.sf.saxon.functions

Class StaticContextAccessor

java.lang.Object

net.sf.saxon.functions.AbstractFunction

net.sf.saxon.functions.SystemFunction

net.sf.saxon.functions.StaticContextAccessor

All Implemented Interfaces:

Callable, FunctionItem, GroundedValue, Item, Sequence

Direct Known Subclasses:

StaticContextAccessor.DefaultCollation

public abstract class StaticContextAccessor
extends SystemFunction

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

StaticContextAccessor

public StaticContextAccessor()

Method Detail

evaluate

public abstract AtomicValue evaluate(RetainedStaticContext rsc)

Method to do the actual evaluation, which must be implemented in a subclass

Parameters:

rsc - the retained static context

Returns:

the result of the evaluation

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
