Method Detail- 
initpublic void init(java.util.List<Clause> clauses, Expression returnClause) 
 - 
getClauseListpublic java.util.List<Clause> getClauseList() Get the list of clauses of the FLWOR expression, in the order they are written. This excludes the return clause- Returns:
- the list of clauses
 
 - 
isLoopingClausepublic static boolean isLoopingClause(Clause c) 
 - 
getReturnClausepublic Expression getReturnClause() Get the return clause of the FLWOR expression- Returns:
- the expression contained in the return clause
 
 - 
hasVariableBindingpublic boolean hasVariableBinding(Binding binding) Determine whether a given variable binding belongs to this FLWOR expression- Overrides:
- hasVariableBindingin class- Expression
- Parameters:
- binding- the binding being sought
- Returns:
- true if this binding belongs to one of the clauses of this FLWOR expression
 
 - 
allowExtractingCommonSubexpressionspublic boolean allowExtractingCommonSubexpressions() Ask whether common subexpressions found in the operands of this expression can be extracted and evaluated outside the expression itself. The result is irrelevant in the case of operands evaluated with a different focus, which will never be extracted in this way, even if they have no focus dependency.- Overrides:
- allowExtractingCommonSubexpressionsin class- Expression
- Returns:
- false for this kind of expression
 
 - 
simplifypublic Expression simplify() throws XPathException Simplify an expression. This performs any static optimization (by rewriting the expression as a different expression). The default implementation does nothing.- Overrides:
- simplifyin class- Expression
- Returns:
- the simplified expression (or the original if unchanged, or if modified in-situ)
- Throws:
- XPathException- if an error is discovered during expression rewriting
 
 - 
typeCheckpublic Expression typeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ContextItemStaticInfo contextInfo) throws XPathException Perform type checking of an expression and its subexpressions. This is the second phase of static optimization.This checks statically that the operands of the expression have the correct type; if necessary it generates code to do run-time type checking or type conversion. A static type error is reported only if execution cannot possibly succeed, that is, if a run-time type error is inevitable. The call may return a modified form of the expression. This method is called after all references to functions and variables have been resolved to the declaration of the function or variable. However, the types of such functions and variables may not be accurately known if they have not been explicitly declared. If the implementation returns a value other than "this", then it is required to ensure that the location information in the returned expression have been set up correctly. It should not rely on the caller to do this, although for historical reasons many callers do so. param visitor an expression visitor- Overrides:
- typeCheckin class- Expression
- Parameters:
- contextInfo- static information about the dynamic context
- visitor- an expression visitor
- Returns:
- the original expression, rewritten to perform necessary run-time type checks, and to perform other type-related optimizations
- Throws:
- XPathException- if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)
 
 - 
implementsStaticTypeCheckpublic boolean implementsStaticTypeCheck() Determine whether this expression implements its own method for static type checking- Overrides:
- implementsStaticTypeCheckin class- Expression
- Returns:
- true - this expression has a non-trivial implementation of the staticTypeCheck() method
 
 - 
staticTypeCheckpublic Expression staticTypeCheck(SequenceType req, boolean backwardsCompatible, RoleDiagnostic role, ExpressionVisitor visitor) throws XPathException Static type checking for let expressions is delegated to the expression itself, and is performed on the "return" expression, to allow further delegation to the branches of a conditional- Overrides:
- staticTypeCheckin class- Expression
- Parameters:
- req- the required type
- backwardsCompatible- true if backwards compatibility mode applies
- role- the role of the expression in relation to the required type
- visitor- an expression visitor
- Returns:
- the expression after type checking (perhaps augmented with dynamic type checking code)
- Throws:
- XPathException- if failures occur, for example if the static type of one branch of the conditional is incompatible with the required type
 
 - 
getItemTypepublic ItemType getItemType() Determine the data type of the items returned by the expression.- Specified by:
- getItemTypein class- Expression
- Returns:
- a value such as Type.STRING, Type.BOOLEAN, Type.NUMBER, Type.NODE, or Type.ITEM (meaning not known at compile time)
 
 - 
computeCardinalityprotected int computeCardinality() Compute the static cardinality of this expression- Specified by:
- computeCardinalityin class- Expression
- 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
 
 - 
operandspublic java.lang.Iterable<Operand> operands() Get the immediate sub-expressions of this expression, with information about the relationship of each expression to its parent expression. Default implementation returns a zero-length array, appropriate for an expression that has no sub-expressions.- Overrides:
- operandsin class- Expression
- Returns:
- an iterator containing the sub-expressions of this expression
 
 - 
checkForUpdatingSubexpressionspublic void checkForUpdatingSubexpressions() throws XPathExceptionCheck to ensure that this expression does not contain any inappropriate updating subexpressions. This check is overridden for those expressions that permit updating subexpressions.- Overrides:
- checkForUpdatingSubexpressionsin class- Expression
- Throws:
- XPathException- if the expression has a non-permitted updateing subexpression
 
 - 
isUpdatingExpressionpublic boolean isUpdatingExpression() Determine whether this is an updating expression as defined in the XQuery update specification- Overrides:
- isUpdatingExpressionin class- Expression
- Returns:
- true if this is an updating expression
 
 - 
getImplementationMethodpublic 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:
- getImplementationMethodin class- Expression
- Returns:
- the implementation method, for example Expression.ITERATE_METHODorExpression.EVALUATE_METHODorExpression.PROCESS_METHOD
 
 - 
addToPathMappublic PathMap.PathMapNodeSet addToPathMap(PathMap pathMap, PathMap.PathMapNodeSet pathMapNodeSet) 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:
- addToPathMapin 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.
 
 - 
injectCodepublic void injectCode(CodeInjector injector) Inject tracing (or other monitoring) code for each clause- Parameters:
- injector- the code injector responsible for processing each clause of the FLWOR expression
 
 - 
exportpublic void export(ExpressionPresenter out) throws XPathException Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.- Specified by:
- exportin interface- ExportAgent
- Specified by:
- exportin class- Expression
- Parameters:
- out- the expression presenter used to display the structure
- Throws:
- XPathException- if the export fails, for example if an expression is found that won't work in the target environment.
 
 - 
copypublic Expression copy(RebindingMap rebindings) Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.- Specified by:
- copyin class- Expression
- Parameters:
- rebindings- variable bindings to be replaced
- Returns:
- the copy of the original expression
 
 - 
unorderedpublic Expression unordered(boolean retainAllNodes, boolean forStreaming) throws XPathException Replace this expression by a simpler expression that delivers the results without regard to order.- Overrides:
- unorderedin class- Expression
- Parameters:
- retainAllNodes- set to true if the result must contain exactly the same nodes as the original; set to false if the result can eliminate (or introduce) duplicates.
- forStreaming- set to true if optimizing for streaming
- Returns:
- an expression that delivers the same nodes in a more convenient order
- Throws:
- XPathException- if the rewrite fails
 
 - 
getEvaluationMethodpublic int getEvaluationMethod() - Overrides:
- getEvaluationMethodin class- Expression
 
 - 
optimizepublic Expression optimize(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ContextItemStaticInfo contextItemType) throws XPathException Description copied from class:ExpressionPerform optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions. This is the third and final phase of static optimization.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:
- optimizein class- Expression
- Parameters:
- visitor- an expression visitor
- contextItemType- 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)
 
 - 
iteratepublic SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context) throws XPathException Return an Iterator to iterate over the values of a sequence. The value of every expression can be regarded as a sequence, so this method is supported for all expressions. This default implementation handles iteration for expressions that return singleton values: for non-singleton expressions, the subclass must provide its own implementation.- Overrides:
- iteratein 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
 
 - 
processpublic void process(Outputter output, XPathContext context) throws XPathException Process the instruction, without returning any tail calls- Overrides:
- processin class- Expression
- Parameters:
- output- the destination for the result
- context- The dynamic context, giving access to the current node, the current variables, etc.
- Throws:
- XPathException- if a dynamic error occurs
 
 - 
evaluatePendingUpdatespublic void evaluatePendingUpdates(XPathContext context, PendingUpdateList pul) throws XPathException Evaluate an updating expression, adding the results to a Pending Update List. The default implementation of this method, which is used for non-updating expressions, throws an UnsupportedOperationException- Overrides:
- evaluatePendingUpdatesin class- Expression
- Parameters:
- context- the XPath dynamic evaluation context
- pul- the pending update list to which the results should be written
- Throws:
- XPathException- if evaluation fails
- java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException- if the expression is not an updating expression
 
 - 
getExpressionNamepublic java.lang.String getExpressionName() Get a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user.- Overrides:
- getExpressionNamein class- Expression
- Returns:
- a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user. The name will always be in the form of a lexical XML QName, and should match the name used in export() output displaying the expression.
 
 - 
toShortStringpublic java.lang.String toShortString() Produce a short string identifying the expression for use in error messages- Overrides:
- toShortStringin class- Expression
- Returns:
- a short string, sufficient to identify the expression
 
 - 
toStringpublic java.lang.String toString() Display the expression as a string- Overrides:
- toStringin class- Expression
- Returns:
- a representation of the expression as a string
 
 - 
hasLoopingVariableReferencepublic boolean hasLoopingVariableReference(Binding binding) Determine whether a variable reference found within a clause of a FLWOR expression is a looping reference, that is, whether the variable is used more than once- Parameters:
- binding- the variable binding, which may be bound in a clause of the same FLWOR expression, or in some containing expression
- Returns:
- true if a reference to the variable occurs within a loop relative to the binding, that is, if the variable's value is used more than once. Note that this method only detects a loop that is due to the clauses of this FLWOR expression itself. A loop in an inner expression or outer expression of the FLWOR expression must be detected by the caller.
