Method Detail
-
simplify
public Expression simplify(ExpressionVisitor visitor) throws XPathException
Simplify. Recognize remove(seq, 1) as a TailExpression.- Overrides:
simplify
in classFunctionCall
- Parameters:
visitor
- an expression visitor- Returns:
- the simplified expression
- Throws:
XPathException
- if an error is discovered during expression rewriting
-
optimize
public Expression optimize(ExpressionVisitor visitor, 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.
- Overrides:
optimize
in classSystemFunction
- Parameters:
visitor
- an expression visitorcontextItemType
- 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 toType.ITEM_TYPE
- Returns:
- the original expression, rewritten if appropriate to optimize execution
- Throws:
XPathException
- if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)
-
getItemType
public ItemType getItemType(TypeHierarchy th)
Determine the data type of the items in the sequence- Overrides:
getItemType
in classSystemFunction
- Parameters:
th
- the type hierarchy cache- Returns:
- the type of the input sequence
-
iterate
public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context) throws XPathException
Evaluate the function to return an iteration of selected nodes.- Specified by:
iterate
in interfaceSequenceIterable
- Overrides:
iterate
in classExpression
- 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
