      • operands

        public final java.lang.Iterable<Operand> operands()
        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.

        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.

        Returns:
        an iterator containing the sub-expressions of this expression

                     throws XPathException
        Type-check the expression. Default implementation for binary operators that accept any kind of operand
        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)

      • optimize

        public Expression optimize​(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                           ContextItemStaticInfo contextItemType)
                    throws XPathException
        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 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)

      • setFlattened

        public void setFlattened​(boolean flattened)
        Mark an expression as being "flattened". This is a collective term that includes extracting the string value or typed value, or operations such as simple value construction that concatenate text nodes before atomizing. The implication of all of these is that although the expression might return nodes, the identity of the nodes has no significance. This is called during type checking of the parent expression.
        Overrides:
        setFlattened in class Expression
        Parameters:
        flattened - set to true if the result of the expression is atomized or otherwise turned into an atomic value

      • getOperator

        public int getOperator()
        Get the operator
        Returns:
        the operator, for example Token.PLUS

      • isCommutative

        protected static boolean isCommutative​(int operator)
        Determine whether a binary operator is commutative, that is, A op B = B op A.
        Parameters:
        operator - the operator, for example Token.PLUS
        Returns:
        true if the operator is commutative

      • isAssociative

        protected static boolean isAssociative​(int operator)
        Determine whether an operator is associative, that is, ((a^b)^c) = (a^(b^c))
        Parameters:
        operator - the operator, for example Token.PLUS
        Returns:
        true if the operator is associative

      • isInverse

        protected static boolean isInverse​(int op1,
                                   int op2)
        Test if one operator is the inverse of another, so that (A op1 B) is equivalent to (B op2 A). Commutative operators are the inverse of themselves and are therefore not listed here.
        Parameters:
        op1 - the first operator
        op2 - the second operator
        Returns:
        true if the operators are the inverse of each other

      • 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

      • equals

        public boolean equals​(java.lang.Object other)
        Is this expression the same as another expression?
        Overrides:
        equals in class Expression
        Parameters:
        other - the other operand; the result is false if this is not an Expression
        Returns:
        true if the other operand is an expression and if it can be determined that the two expressions are equivalent, in the sense that they will always return the same result.

      • computeHashCode

        protected int computeHashCode()
        Get a hashCode for comparing two expressions. Note that this hashcode gives the same result for (A op B) and for (B op A), whether or not the operator is commutative.
        Overrides:
        computeHashCode in class Expression
        Returns:
        a computed hash code

      • toString

        public java.lang.String toString()

        Overrides:
        toString in class Expression
        Returns:
        the expression as a string in XPath 3.0 syntax

        Returns:
        a short string, sufficient to identify the expression

      • tag

        protected java.lang.String tag()
        Get the element name used to identify this expression in exported expression format
