public InsertBefore()

Method Detail

getItemType

public ItemType getItemType()

Determine the item type of the value returned by the function

/*@NotNull

Overrides:

getItemType in class SystemFunctionCall

Returns:

a value such as Type.STRING, Type.BOOLEAN, Type.NUMBER, Type.NODE, or Type.ITEM (meaning not known at compile time)

iterate

public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context)
                         throws XPathException

Evaluate the function to return an iteration of selected nodes.

Overrides:

iterate in class Expression

Parameters:

context - 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

call

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

Evaluate the expression as a general function call

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

getStreamingAdjunct

public InsertBeforeAdjunct getStreamingAdjunct()

Get a class that supports streamed evaluation of this expression

Overrides:

getStreamingAdjunct in class Expression

Returns:

the relevant StreamingAdjunct, or null if none is available
