Constructor Detail

DynamicTypeCheck

public DynamicTypeCheck(XQueryContext context,
                        int requiredType,
                        Expression expr)

Method Detail

analyze

public void analyze(AnalyzeContextInfo contextInfo)
             throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Expression

Statically analyze the expression and its subexpressions. During the static analysis phase, the query engine can detect unknown variables and some type errors.

Throws:

XPathException

eval

public Sequence eval(Sequence contextSequence,
                     Item contextItem)
              throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Expression

Evaluate the expression represented by this object. Depending on the context in which this expression is executed, either the context sequence, the context item or both of them may be set. An implementing class should know how to handle this. The general contract is as follows: if the Dependency.CONTEXT_ITEM bit is set in the bit field returned by Expression.getDependencies(), the eval method will be called once for every item in the context sequence. The contextItem parameter will be set to the current item. Otherwise, the eval method will only be called once for the whole context sequence and contextItem will be null. eXist tries to process the entire context set in one, single step whenever possible. Thus, most classes only expect context to contain a list of nodes which represents the current context of the expression. The position() function in XPath is an example for an expression, which requires both, context sequence and context item to be set. The context sequence might be a node set, a sequence of atomic values or a single node or atomic value.

Specified by:

eval in interface Expression

Specified by:

eval in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

contextSequence - the current context sequence.

contextItem - a single item, taken from context. This defines the item, the expression should work on.

Throws:

XPathException

dump

public void dump(ExpressionDumper dumper)

Description copied from interface: Expression

Write a diagnostic dump of the expression to the passed ExpressionDumper.

Parameters:

dumper - the expression dumper to write to

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

returnsType

public int returnsType()

Description copied from interface: Expression

The static return type of the expression. This method should return one of the type constants defined in class Type. If the return type cannot be determined statically, return Type.ITEM.

Specified by:

returnsType in interface Expression

Specified by:

returnsType in class AbstractExpression

getDependencies

public int getDependencies()

Description copied from class: AbstractExpression

Returns Dependency.DEFAULT_DEPENDENCIES.

Specified by:

getDependencies in interface Expression

Overrides:

getDependencies in class AbstractExpression

Returns:

See Also:

Expression.getDependencies()

resetState

public void resetState()

Description copied from interface: Expression

Called to inform an expression that it should reset to its initial state. All cached data in the expression object should be dropped. For example, the document() function calls this method whenever the input document set has changed.

Specified by:

resetState in interface Expression

Overrides:

resetState in class AbstractExpression

setContextDocSet

public void setContextDocSet(DocumentSet contextSet)

Specified by:

setContextDocSet in interface Expression

Overrides:

setContextDocSet in class AbstractExpression

getASTNode

public XQueryAST getASTNode()

Description copied from interface: Expression

Returns the XQueryAST node from which this expression has been constructed by the parser. This node contains location information (line number and column) important for error reports.

Specified by:

getASTNode in interface Expression

Overrides:

getASTNode in class AbstractExpression

Returns:

accept

public void accept(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

Description copied from interface: Expression

Start traversing the expression tree using the specified ExpressionVisitor.

Specified by:

accept in interface Expression

Overrides:

accept in class AbstractExpression
