      • computeSpecialProperties

        public int computeSpecialProperties()
        Get the static properties of this expression (other than its type). The result is bit-significant. These properties are used for optimizations. In general, if property bit is set, it is true, but if it is unset, the value is unknown.
        Overrides:
        computeSpecialProperties in class SystemFunction
        Returns:
        the special properties, as a bit-significant integer
      • addToPathMap

        public PathMap.PathMapNodeSet addToPathMap​(PathMap pathMap,
                                                   PathMap.PathMapNodeSet pathMapNodeSet)
        Add a representation of this expression to a PathMap. The PathMap captures a map of the nodes visited by an expression in a source tree.

        The default implementation of this method assumes that an expression does no navigation other than the navigation done by evaluating its subexpressions, and that the subexpressions are evaluated in the same context as the containing expression. The method must be overridden for any expression where these assumptions do not hold. For example, implementations exist for AxisExpression, ParentExpression, and RootExpression (because they perform navigation), and for the doc(), document(), and collection() functions because they create a new navigation root. Implementations also exist for PathExpression and FilterExpression because they have subexpressions that are evaluated in a different context from the calling expression.

        Overrides:
        addToPathMap in class Expression
        Parameters:
        pathMap - the PathMap to which the expression should be added
        pathMapNodeSet -
        Returns:
        the pathMapNode representing the focus established by this expression, in the case where this expression is the first operand of a path expression or filter expression. For an expression that does navigation, it represents the end of the arc in the path map that describes the navigation route. For other expressions, it is the same as the input pathMapNode.
      • evaluateItem

        public Item evaluateItem​(XPathContext c)
                          throws XPathException
        Evaluate in a general context
        Specified by:
        evaluateItem in interface EvaluableItem
        Overrides:
        evaluateItem in class Expression
        Parameters:
        c - 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
