java.lang.Object

com.saxonica.ee.bytecode.map.ForItemMappingAction

All Implemented Interfaces:

ItemMappingFunction

public abstract class ForItemMappingAction
extends java.lang.Object
implements ItemMappingFunction

The ForItemMappingAction supports compilation of a ForExpression. It represents the action to be taken for each item in the source sequence. It acts as the MappingFunction for the mapping iterator. The map() method is generated in the subclass, and performs the "action" part of the for expression, being called once per iteration, and returning an iterator over the results.
