Method Detail

call

public Sequence 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 TailExpression makeFunctionCall(Expression[] arguments)

Convert static calls into a TailExpression

Overrides:

makeFunctionCall in class SystemFunction

Parameters:

arguments - the supplied arguments to the call

Returns:

a TailExpression
