getAncestorPattern

simplify

public Pattern simplify(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                 throws XPathException

Simplify the pattern: perform any context-independent optimisations

Overrides:

simplify in class Pattern

Parameters:

visitor - an expression visitor

Returns:

the optimised Pattern

Throws:

XPathException

analyze

public Pattern analyze(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                       ItemType contextItemType)
                throws XPathException

Type-check the pattern, performing any type-dependent optimizations.

Overrides:

analyze in class Pattern

Parameters:

visitor - an expression visitor

contextItemType - the type of the context item at the point where the pattern appears

Returns:

the optimised Pattern

Throws:

XPathException

getDependencies

public int getDependencies()

Get the dependencies of the pattern. The only possible dependency for a pattern is on local variables. This is analyzed in those patterns where local variables may appear.

Overrides:

getDependencies in class Pattern

Returns:

the dependencies, as a bit-significant mask

iterateSubExpressions

public java.util.Iterator iterateSubExpressions()

Iterate over the subexpressions within this pattern

Overrides:

iterateSubExpressions in class Pattern

Returns:

an iterator over the subexpressions. Default implementation returns an empty sequence

replaceSubExpression

public boolean replaceSubExpression(Expression original,
                                    Expression replacement)

Replace one subexpression by a replacement subexpression

Specified by:

replaceSubExpression in interface Container

Overrides:

replaceSubExpression in class Pattern

Parameters:

original - the original subexpression

replacement - the replacement subexpression

Returns:

true if the original subexpression is found

allocateSlots

public int allocateSlots(StaticContext env,
                         SlotManager slotManager,
                         int nextFree)

Allocate slots to any variables used within the pattern

Overrides:

allocateSlots in class Pattern

Parameters:

env - the static context in the XSLT stylesheet

slotManager -

nextFree - the next slot that is free to be allocated @return the next slot that is free to be allocated

promote

public void promote(PromotionOffer offer)
             throws XPathException

Offer promotion for subexpressions within this pattern. The offer will be accepted if the subexpression is not dependent on the factors (e.g. the context item) identified in the PromotionOffer. By default the offer is not accepted - this is appropriate in the case of simple expressions such as constant values and variable references where promotion would give no performance advantage. This method is always called at compile time.

Unlike the corresponding method on Expression, this method does not return anything: it can make internal changes to the pattern, but cannot return a different pattern. Only certain kinds of promotion are applicable within a pattern: specifically, promotions affecting local variable references within the pattern.

Overrides:

promote in class Pattern

Parameters:

offer - details of the offer, for example the offer to move expressions that don't depend on the context to an outer level in the containing expression

Throws:

XPathException - if any error is detected

matches

public boolean matches(NodeInfo node,
                       XPathContext context)
                throws XPathException

Determine whether the pattern matches a given node.

Specified by:

matches in class Pattern

Parameters:

node - the node to be tested

context - The dynamic context. Only relevant if the pattern uses variables, or contains calls on functions such as document() or key().

Returns:

true if the pattern matches, else false

Throws:

XPathException

internalMatches

protected boolean internalMatches(NodeInfo node,
                                  XPathContext context)
                           throws XPathException

Test whether the pattern matches, but without changing the current() node

Overrides:

internalMatches in class Pattern

Parameters:

node - The NodeInfo representing the Element or other node to be tested against the Pattern

context - The dynamic context. Only relevant if the pattern uses variables, or contains calls on functions such as document() or key().

Returns:

true if the node matches the Pattern, false otherwise

Throws:

XPathException

getNodeKind

public int getNodeKind()

Determine the types of nodes to which this pattern applies. Used for optimisation. For patterns that match nodes of several types, return Node.NODE

Overrides:

getNodeKind in class Pattern

Returns:

the type of node matched by this pattern. e.g. Node.ELEMENT or Node.TEXT

getFingerprint

public int getFingerprint()

Determine the fingerprint of nodes to which this pattern applies. Used for optimisation.

Overrides:

getFingerprint in class Pattern

Returns:

the fingerprint of nodes matched by this pattern.

getNodeTest

public NodeTest getNodeTest()

Get a NodeTest that all the nodes matching this pattern must satisfy

Specified by:

getNodeTest in class Pattern

Returns:

a NodeTest, as specific as possible, which all the matching nodes satisfy

resolveCurrent

public void resolveCurrent(LetExpression let,
                           PromotionOffer offer,
                           boolean topLevel)
                    throws XPathException

If the pattern contains any calls on current(), this method is called to modify such calls to become variable references to a variable declared in a specially-allocated local variable

Parameters:

let - the expression that assigns the local variable. This returns a dummy result, and is executed just before evaluating the pattern, to get the value of the context item into the variable.

offer - A PromotionOffer used to process the expressions and change the call on current() into a variable reference

topLevel -

Throws:

XPathException

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object other)

Determine whether this pattern is the same as another pattern

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

Parameters:

other - the other object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Hashcode supporting equals()

Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object
