Method Detail

preEvaluate

public Expression preEvaluate(StaticContext env)
                       throws XPathException

Pre-evaluate a function at compile time. Functions that do not allow pre-evaluation, or that need access to context information, can override this method.

Overrides:

preEvaluate in class FunctionCall

Throws:

XPathException

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext c)
                  throws XPathException

Evaluate

Specified by:

evaluateItem in interface Expression

Overrides:

evaluateItem in class ComputedExpression

Parameters:

c - The context in which the expression is to be evaluated

Returns:

the node or atomic value that results from evaluating the expression; or null to indicate that the result is an empty sequence

Throws:

XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

iterate

public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext c)
                         throws XPathException

Description copied from class: ComputedExpression

Return an Iterator to iterate over the values of a sequence. The value of every expression can be regarded as a sequence, so this method is supported for all expressions. This default implementation handles iteration for expressions that return singleton values: for non-singleton expressions, the subclass must provide its own implementation.

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
