Method Detail

compileToIterator

public java.lang.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

compilePush

public void compilePush(CompilerService compiler,
                        Expression expr)

Description copied from class: ExpressionCompiler

Generate Java code to execute the expression in push mode, that is, code to write events to the current output Receiver

Overrides:

compilePush in class SequenceExpressionCompiler

Parameters:

compiler - the compiler service

expr - the expression to be compiled

compileToItem

public java.lang.String compileToItem(CompilerService compiler,
                                      Expression expr)

Description copied from class: ExpressionCompiler

Generate Java code to evaluate the expression as an Item

Overrides:

compileToItem in class SequenceExpressionCompiler

Parameters:

compiler - the compiler service

expr - the expression to be compiled

Returns:

a simple Java expression (usually the name of a variable that has been declared) which will be of class Item, and which will hold the value of the expression at run-time (or hold null, representing an empty sequence).

compileToEffectiveBooleanValue

public java.lang.String compileToEffectiveBooleanValue(CompilerService compiler,
                                                       Expression expr,
                                                       ReturnAction options)

Description copied from class: ExpressionCompiler

Generate Java code to evaluate the effective boolean value of the expression

Overrides:

compileToEffectiveBooleanValue in class SequenceExpressionCompiler

Parameters:

compiler - the compiler service

expr - the XPath expression to be compiled

options - indicates how the boolean result is to be returned

Returns:

the result depends on the supplied value of the options argument. If options is a JavaDeclaration, the code must declare a Java variable and return the name of this variable. If options is a JavaAssignment, the code must assign the value to an existing Java variable. If options is a Return, the code must generate a return statement that returns the value of the boolean (in which case the result of this method is null).

compileToCharSequence

public java.lang.String compileToCharSequence(CompilerService compiler,
                                              Expression expr)

Description copied from class: ExpressionCompiler

Generate Java code to evaluate the expression as a CharSequence

Overrides:

compileToCharSequence in class SequenceExpressionCompiler

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, or a string literal) which will be of class CharSequence, and which will hold the string value of the XPath expression at run-time

compileAsLoop

public void compileAsLoop(CompilerService compiler,
                          Expression expr,
                          LoopAction action)

Compile an expression in the form of a loop. Default implementation.

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

compileToEvaluableItem

public static java.lang.String compileToEvaluableItem(CompilerService compiler,
                                                      LazyExpression exp)
