Method Detail

compileToIterator

public String compileToIterator(CompilerService compiler,
                                Expression expr)
Description copied from class: ExpressionCompiler
Generate Java code to evaluate the expression as a SequenceIterator

Specified by:
compileToIterator in class ExpressionCompiler
Parameters:
compiler - the compiler service
expr - the XPath expression to be compiled
Returns:
a simple Java expression (usually the name of a variable that has been declared) which will be of class SequenceIterator, and which at run-time will hold an iterator over the the value of the XPath expression

compileToIterator

public static String compileToIterator(CompilerService compiler,
                                       AxisExpression exp,
                                       String origin)

compileAsLoop

public void compileAsLoop(CompilerService compiler,
                          Expression expr,
                          LoopAction action)
Compile an expression in the form of a loop.

Overrides:
compileAsLoop in class ExpressionCompiler
Parameters:
compiler - the CompilerService
expr - the expression to be compiled
action - the action to be taken to process each item in the sequence returned by the expression
