public class Tokenize
extends SystemFunction

This class implements the tokenize() function for regular expression matching. This returns a sequence of strings representing the unmatched substrings: the separators which match the regular expression are not returned.

Method Detail

simplify

public Expression simplify(StaticContext env)
                    throws XPathException
Simplify and validate. This is a pure function so it can be simplified in advance if the arguments are known

Specified by:
simplify in interface Expression
Overrides:
simplify in class FunctionCall
Throws:
XPathException

iterate

public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext c)
                         throws XPathException
Iterate over the results of the function

Specified by:
iterate in interface Expression
Overrides:
iterate in class ComputedExpression
Parameters:
c - 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

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)
                 throws java.lang.Exception
Simple command-line interface for testing.

Parameters:
args - (1) the string to be tokenized (2) the regular expression
Throws:
java.lang.Exception
