getIntegerBounds

public IntegerValue[] getIntegerBounds()

For an expression that returns an integer or a sequence of integers, get a lower and upper bound on the values of the integers that may be returned, from static analysis. The default implementation returns null, meaning "unknown" or "not applicable". Other implementations return an array of two IntegerValue objects, representing the lower and upper bounds respectively. The values UNBOUNDED_LOWER and UNBOUNDED_UPPER are used by convention to indicate that the value may be arbitrarily large. The values MAX_STRING_LENGTH and MAX_SEQUENCE_LENGTH are used to indicate values limited by the size of a string or the size of a sequence.

Overrides:

getIntegerBounds in class Expression

Returns:

the lower and upper bounds of integer values in the result, or null to indicate unknown or not applicable.

evaluateItem

public Int64Value evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                        throws XPathException

Evaluate this function call at run-time

Overrides:

evaluateItem in class Expression

Parameters:

context - The XPath dynamic evaluation context

Returns:

the result of the function, or null to represent an empty sequence

Throws:

XPathException - if a dynamic error occurs during evaluation of the function.

call

public Sequence call(XPathContext context,
            Sequence[] arguments)
              throws XPathException

Evaluate the expression

Specified by:

call in interface Callable

Parameters:

context - the dynamic evaluation context

arguments - the values of the arguments, supplied as SequenceIterators

Returns:

the result of the evaluation, in the form of a SequenceIterator

Throws:

XPathException - if a dynamic error occurs during the evaluation of the expression
