      Get the n'th child expression
      Parameters:
      n - the position of the child expression required (zero-based)
      Returns:
      the child expression at that position

    • size

      public int size()
      Get the number of children
      Returns:
      the number of child subexpressions

    • operands

      public 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.

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

    • getExpressionName

      public String getExpressionName()
      Description copied from class: Instruction
      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.

    • computeSpecialProperties

      protected int computeSpecialProperties()
      Description copied from class: Instruction
      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

    • copy

      public Expression copy(RebindingMap rebindings)
      Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.
      Specified by:
      copy in class Expression
      Parameters:
      rebindings - variables to be rebound
      Returns:
      the copy of the original expression

    • getItemType

      public final ItemType getItemType()
      Determine the data type of the items returned by this expression
      Overrides:
      getItemType in class Instruction
      Returns:
      the data type

    • getCardinality

      public final int getCardinality()
      Determine the cardinality of the expression
      Overrides:
      getCardinality in class Expression
      Returns:
      one of the values Cardinality.ONE_OR_MORE, Cardinality.ZERO_OR_MORE, Cardinality.EXACTLY_ONE, Cardinality.ZERO_OR_ONE, Cardinality.EMPTY. This default implementation returns ZERO_OR_MORE (which effectively gives no information).

    • mayCreateNewNodes

      public final boolean mayCreateNewNodes()
      Determine whether this instruction creates new nodes. This implementation returns true if any child instruction returns true.
      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)

    • 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)

    • optimize

      public Expression optimize(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ContextItemStaticInfo contextInfo) 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
      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)

    • 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

    • 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
      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.

    • toShortString

      public String toShortString()
      Description copied from class: Expression
      Produce a short string identifying the expression for use in error messages
      Overrides:
      toShortString in class Expression
      Returns:
      a short string, sufficient to identify the 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. This implementation provides both iterate() and process() methods natively.
      Overrides:
      getImplementationMethod in class Instruction
      Returns:
      the implementation method, for example Expression.ITERATE_METHOD or Expression.EVALUATE_METHOD or Expression.PROCESS_METHOD

    • getStreamerName

      public 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

    • getElaborator

      public Elaborator getElaborator()
      Description copied from class: Expression
      Make an elaborator for this expression
      Overrides:
