Class SingletonAtomizer

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    ExportAgent, Locatable, IdentityComparable, Traceable

    public final class SingletonAtomizer
    extends UnaryExpression
    A SingletonAtomizer combines the functions of an Atomizer and a CardinalityChecker: it is used to atomize a sequence of nodes, checking that the result of the atomization contains zero or one atomic values. Note that the input may be a sequence of nodes or atomic values, even though the result must contain at most one atomic value.

        public boolean isAllowEmpty()

        public Expression simplify()
                            throws XPathException
        Simplify an expression
        Overrides:

        Returns:
        the simplified expression (or the original if unchanged, or if modified in-situ)

        Returns:
        the original expression, rewritten to perform necessary run-time type checks, and to perform other type-related optimizations

                            throws XPathException
        Description copied from class: UnaryExpression
        Perform optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions.

        This method is called after all references to functions and variables have been resolved to the declaration of the function or variable, and after all type checking has been done.

        Overrides:
        optimize in class UnaryExpression
        Parameters:
        visitor - an expression visitor
        contextInfo - the static type of "." at the point where this expression is invoked. The parameter is set to null if it is known statically that the context item will be undefined. If the type of the context item is not known statically, the argument is set to Type.ITEM_TYPE
        Returns:
        the original expression, rewritten if appropriate to optimize execution
        Throws:
        XPathException - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)
      • copy

        public Expression copy​(RebindingMap rebindings)
        Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.
        Specified by:
        copy in class Expression
        Parameters:
        rebindings - variables that need to be re-bound
        Returns:
        the copy of the original expression
      • getImplementationMethod

        public int getImplementationMethod()
        An implementation of Expression must provide at least one of the methods evaluateItem(), iterate(), or process(). This method indicates which of these methods is provided directly. The other methods will always be available indirectly, using an implementation that relies on one of the other methods.
        Specified by:
        getImplementationMethod in class Expression
        Returns:
        the implementation method, for example Expression.ITERATE_METHOD or Expression.EVALUATE_METHOD or Expression.PROCESS_METHOD
      • getStreamerName

        public java.lang.String getStreamerName()
        Get the (partial) name of a class that supports streaming of this kind of expression
        Overrides:
        getStreamerName in class Expression
        Returns:
        the partial name of a class that can be instantiated to provide streaming support in Saxon-EE, or null if there is no such class
      • getRole

        public RoleDiagnostic getRole()
        Get the RoleLocator (used to construct error messages)
        Returns:
        the roleDiagnostic locator
      • addToPathMap

        public PathMap.PathMapNodeSet addToPathMap​(PathMap pathMap,
                                                   PathMap.PathMapNodeSet pathMapNodeSet)
        Description copied from class: Expression
        Add a representation of this expression to a PathMap. The PathMap captures a map of the nodes visited by an expression in a source tree.

        The default implementation of this method assumes that an expression does no navigation other than the navigation done by evaluating its subexpressions, and that the subexpressions are evaluated in the same context as the containing expression. The method must be overridden for any expression where these assumptions do not hold. For example, implementations exist for AxisExpression, ParentExpression, and RootExpression (because they perform navigation), and for the doc(), document(), and collection() functions because they create a new navigation root. Implementations also exist for PathExpression and FilterExpression because they have subexpressions that are evaluated in a different context from the calling expression.

        Overrides:
        addToPathMap in class Expression
        Parameters:
        pathMap - the PathMap to which the expression should be added
        pathMapNodeSet - the PathMapNodeSet to which the paths embodied in this expression should be added
        Returns:
        the pathMapNodeSet representing the points in the source document that are both reachable by this expression, and that represent possible results of this expression. For an expression that does navigation, it represents the end of the arc in the path map that describes the navigation route. For other expressions, it is the same as the input pathMapNode.
      • evaluateItem

        public AtomicValue evaluateItem​(XPathContext context)
                                 throws XPathException
        Evaluate as an Item. This should only be called if a singleton or empty sequence is required; it throws a type error if the underlying sequence is multi-valued.
        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
      • getItemType

        public ItemType getItemType()
        Determine the data type of the items returned by the expression, if possible
        Overrides:
        getItemType in class UnaryExpression
        Returns:
        a value such as Type.STRING, Type.BOOLEAN, Type.NUMBER. For this class, the result is always an atomic type, but it might be more specific.
      • getExpressionName

        public java.lang.String getExpressionName()
        Give a string representation of the expression name for use in diagnostics
        Overrides:

        the expression name, as a string
      • export

        public void export​(ExpressionPresenter out)
                    throws XPathException
        Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.
        Specified by:
        export in interface ExportAgent
        Overrides:
        export in class UnaryExpression
        Parameters:
        out -
        Throws:
        XPathException - if the export fails, for example if an expression is found that won't work in the target environment.
      • toShortString

        public java.lang.String toShortString()
        Description copied from class: Expression
        Produce a short string identifying the expression for use in error messages
