Method Detail

simplify

public Expression simplify(StaticContext env)
                    throws XPathException

Simplify the function call. Default method is to simplify each of the supplied arguments and evaluate the function if all are now known.

Specified by:

simplify in interface Expression

Overrides:

simplify in class FunctionCall

Parameters:

env - the static context

Returns:

the simplified expression

Throws:

XPathException - if an error is discovered during expression rewriting

checkArguments

public void checkArguments(StaticContext env)
                    throws XPathException

Static analysis: prevent sorting of the argument

Overrides:

checkArguments in class SystemFunction

Throws:

XPathException

optimize

public Expression optimize(Optimizer opt,
                           StaticContext env,
                           ItemType contextItemType)
                    throws XPathException

Perform optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions.

This method is called after all references to functions and variables have been resolved to the declaration of the function or variable, and after all type checking has been done.

Specified by:

optimize in interface Expression

Overrides:

optimize in class FunctionCall

Parameters:

opt - the optimizer in use. This provides access to supporting functions; it also allows different optimization strategies to be used in different circumstances.

env - the static context of the expression

contextItemType - the static type of "." at the point where this expression is invoked. The parameter is set to null if it is known statically that the context item will be undefined. If the type of the context item is not known statically, the argument is set to Type.ITEM_TYPE

Returns:

the original expression, rewritten if appropriate to optimize execution

Throws:

StaticError - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)

XPathException

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                  throws XPathException

Evaluate the function

Specified by:

evaluateItem in interface Expression

Overrides:

evaluateItem in class ComputedExpression

Parameters:

context - 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

effectiveBooleanValue

public boolean effectiveBooleanValue(XPathContext c)
                              throws XPathException

Evaluate the effective boolean value

Specified by:

effectiveBooleanValue in interface Expression

Overrides:

effectiveBooleanValue in class ComputedExpression

Parameters:

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

Returns:

the effective boolean value

Throws:

XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression
