Method Detail

nextTuple

public boolean nextTuple(XPathContext context)
                  throws XPathException

Move on to the next tuple. Before returning, this method must set all the variables corresponding to the "returned" tuple in the local stack frame associated with the context object

Specified by:

nextTuple in class TuplePull

Parameters:

context - the dynamic evaluation context

Returns:

true if another tuple has been generated; false if the tuple stream is exhausted. If the method returns false, the values of the local variables corresponding to this tuple stream are undefined.

Throws:

XPathException - if any error occurs

getIterator

protected SequenceIterator getIterator(XPathContext context)
                                throws XPathException

Get an iterator over the items or members in the target collection.

Parameters:

context - dynamic evaluation context

Returns:

for a simple "for $x" clause, the sequence of items to which $x will be bound. For a "for member ¢x" clause, the sequence of array members, each wrapped as an object value

Throws:

XPathException - if evaluation fails

variableValue

protected GroundedValue variableValue(Item item)

Get the value to be bound to the iteration variable

Parameters:

item - the value returned by the sequence iterator

Returns:

the value to be assigned to the iteration variable

close

public void close()

Close the tuple stream, indicating that although not all tuples have been read, no further tuples are required and resources can be released

Overrides:
