        Description copied from class: Expression
        Get the immediate sub-expressions of this expression, with information about the relationship of each expression to its parent expression. Default implementation works off the results of iterateSubExpressions()

        If the expression is a Callable, then it is required that the order of the operands returned by this function is the same as the order of arguments supplied to the corresponding call() method.

        Specified by:
        operands in class Instruction
        Returns:
        an iterator containing the sub-expressions of this expression
      • allowExtractingCommonSubexpressions

        public 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:
        allowExtractingCommonSubexpressions in class Expression
        Returns:
        false for this kind of expression

      • getInstructionNameCode

        public int getInstructionNameCode()
        Get the name of this instruction for diagnostic and tracing purposes We assume that if there was only one condition then it was an xsl:if; this is not necessarily so, but it's adequate for tracing purposes.
        Overrides:
        getInstructionNameCode in class Instruction
        Returns:
        a code identifying the instruction: typically but not always the fingerprint of a name in the XSLT namespace
      • simplify

        public Expression simplify()
                            throws XPathException
        Simplify an expression. This performs any static optimization (by rewriting the expression as a different expression).
        Overrides:
        simplify in 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
      • typeCheck

        public Expression typeCheck​(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                                    ContextItemStaticInfo contextInfo)
                             throws XPathException
        Description copied from class: Expression
        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.

        Overrides:
        typeCheck in class Expression
        Parameters:
        visitor - an expression visitor
        contextInfo - Information available statically about the context item: whether it is (possibly) absent; its static type; its streaming posture.
        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)
      • implementsStaticTypeCheck

        public boolean implementsStaticTypeCheck()
        Determine whether this expression implements its own method for static type checking
        Overrides:
        implementsStaticTypeCheck in class Expression
        Returns:
        true - this expression has a non-trivial implementation of the staticTypeCheck() method
      • staticTypeCheck

        public Expression staticTypeCheck​(SequenceType req,
                                          boolean backwardsCompatible,
                                          RoleDiagnostic role,
                                          ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                                   throws XPathException
        Static type checking for conditional expressions is delegated to the expression itself, and is performed separately on each branch of the conditional, so that dynamic checks are added only on those branches where the check is actually required. This also results in a static type error if any branch is incapable of delivering a value of the required type. One reason for this approach is to avoid doing dynamic type checking on a recursive function call as this prevents tail-call optimization being used.
        Overrides:
        staticTypeCheck in 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
      • optimize

        public Expression optimize​(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                                   ContextItemStaticInfo contextItemType)
                            throws XPathException
        Description copied from class: Expression
        Perform 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:
        optimize in 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)

        Check to ensure that this expression does not contain any updating subexpressions. This check is overridden for those expressions that permit updating subexpressions.
        Overrides:
        checkForUpdatingSubexpressions in class Expression
        Throws:
        XPathException - if the expression has a non-permitted updateing subexpression

                                         int arity)
        Mark tail-recursive calls on functions. For most expressions, this does nothing.
        Overrides:
        markTailFunctionCalls in class Expression
        Parameters:
        qName - the name of the function
        arity - the arity (number of parameters) of the function
        Returns:
        0 if no tail call was found; 1 if a tail call on a different function was found; 2 if a tail recursive call was found and if this call accounts for the whole of the value.
      • getItemType

        public ItemType getItemType()
        Get the item type of the items returned by evaluating this instruction

      • computeSpecialProperties

        public int computeSpecialProperties()
        Get the static properties of this expression (other than its type). The result is bit-signficant. 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 Instruction
        Returns:
        a set of flags indicating static properties of this expression
      • mayCreateNewNodes

        public final boolean mayCreateNewNodes()
        Determine whether this instruction creates new nodes. This implementation returns true if any of the "actions" creates new nodes. (Nodes created by the conditions can't contribute to the result).
        Overrides:
        mayCreateNewNodes in class Instruction
        Returns:
        true if the instruction creates new nodes under some input conditions (or if it can't be proved that it doesn't)
      • unordered

        public Expression unordered​(boolean retainAllNodes,
                                    boolean forStreaming)
                             throws XPathException
        Replace this expression by a simpler expression that delivers the results without regard to order.
        Overrides:
        unordered in 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
      • checkPermittedContents

        public void checkPermittedContents​(SchemaType parentType,
                                           boolean whole)
                                    throws XPathException
        Check that any elements and attributes constructed or returned by this expression are acceptable in the content model of a given complex type. It's always OK to say yes, since the check will be repeated at run-time. The process of checking element and attribute constructors against the content model of a complex type also registers the type of content expected of those constructors, so the static validation can continue recursively.
        Overrides:
        checkPermittedContents in class Expression
        Parameters:
        parentType - the "given complex type": the method is checking that the nodes returned by this expression are acceptable members of the content model of this type
        whole - if true, we want to check that the value of this expression satisfies the content model as a whole; if false we want to check that the value of the expression is acceptable as one part of the content
        Throws:
        XPathException - if the value delivered by this expression cannot be part of the content model of the given type
      • addToPathMap

        public 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:
        addToPathMap in class Expression
        Parameters:
        pathMap - the PathMap to which the expression should be added
        pathMapNodeSet - the set of PathMap nodes to which the paths from this expression should be appended
        Returns:
        the pathMapNode representing the focus established by this expression, in the case where this expression is the first operand of a path expression or filter 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.
      • toString

        public java.lang.String toString()
        The toString() method for an expression attempts to give a representation of the expression in an XPath-like form, but there is no guarantee that the syntax will actually be true XPath. In the case of XSLT instructions, the toString() method gives an abstracted view of the syntax
        Overrides:
        toString in class Expression
        Returns:
        a representation of the expression as a string
      • toShortString

        Overrides:
        toShortString in class Expression
        Returns:
        a short string, sufficient to identify the expression

        Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.
        Specified by:
        export in interface ExportAgent
        Specified by:
        export in 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.

        public TailCall processLeavingTail​(Outputter output,
                                           XPathContext context)
                                    throws XPathException
        Process this instruction, that is, choose an xsl:when or xsl:otherwise child and process it.
        Specified by:
        processLeavingTail in interface TailCallReturner
        Specified by:
        processLeavingTail in class Instruction
        Parameters:
        output - the destination for the result
        context - the dynamic context of this transformation
        Returns:
        a TailCall, if the chosen branch ends with a call of call-template or apply-templates. It is the caller's responsibility to execute such a TailCall. If there is no TailCall, returns null.
        Throws:
        XPathException - if any non-recoverable dynamic error occurs
      • evaluateItem

        public Item evaluateItem​(XPathContext context)
                          throws XPathException
        Evaluate an expression as a single item. This always returns either a single Item or null (denoting the empty sequence). No conversion is done. This method should not be used unless the static type of the expression is a subtype of "item" or "item?": that is, it should not be called if the expression may return a sequence. There is no guarantee that this condition will be detected.
        Overrides:
        evaluateItem in class Instruction
        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
        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 relies on the process() method: it "pushes" the results of the instruction to a sequence in memory, and then iterates over this in-memory sequence.

        In principle instructions should implement a pipelined iterate() method that avoids the overhead of intermediate storage.

        Overrides:
        iterate in class Instruction
        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
      • evaluatePendingUpdates

        public 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:
        evaluatePendingUpdates in 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
      • getExpressionName

        public java.lang.String getExpressionName()
        Get a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user.
        Overrides:
        getExpressionName in class Instruction
        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 explain() output displaying the expression.
      • getStreamerName

        public java.lang.String getStreamerName()
