public class Trace
extends SystemFunction

This class supports the XPath 2.0 function trace(). The value is traced to the registered output stream (defaulting to System.err), unless a TraceListener is in use, in which case the information is sent to the TraceListener

Method Detail

preEvaluate

public Expression preEvaluate(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
preEvaluate: this method suppresses compile-time evaluation by doing nothing

Overrides:
preEvaluate in class FunctionCall
Parameters:
visitor - an expression visitor
Returns:
the result of the early evaluation, or the original expression, or potentially a simplified expression

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

computeCardinality

public int computeCardinality()
Get the static cardinality

Overrides:
computeCardinality in class SystemFunction
Returns:
the computed cardinality, as one of the values StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ZERO_OR_ONE, StaticProperty.EXACTLY_ONE, StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ONE_OR_MORE, StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ZERO_OR_MORE

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                  throws XPathException
Evaluate the function

Specified by:
evaluateItem in interface EvaluableItem
Overrides:
evaluateItem in class Expression
Parameters:
context - 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

iterate

public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context)
                         throws XPathException
Iterate over the results of the function

Specified by:
iterate in interface SequenceIterable
Overrides:
iterate in class Expression
Parameters:
context - supplies the context for evaluation
Returns:
a SequenceIterator that can be used to iterate over the result of the expression
Throws:
XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression
