        Replace any call to current() within a contained expression by a reference to a variable
        Parameters:
        exp - the expression in which the replacement is to take place (which must not itself be a call to current())
        binding - the binding for the variable reference

      • patternContainsVariable

        public static boolean patternContainsVariable​(Pattern pattern)
        Ask whether a pattern has dependencies on local variables
        Parameters:
        pattern - the pattern (typically a pattern in an xsl:number or xsl:for-each-group); or null
        Returns:
        true if the pattern is non-null and has dependencies on local variables

      • isLiftable

        public boolean isLiftable​(boolean forStreaming)
        Ask whether the expression can be lifted out of a loop, assuming it has no dependencies on the controlling variable/focus of the loop
        Overrides:
        isLiftable in class Expression
        Parameters:
        forStreaming - true if we are generating code for streaming
        Returns:
        true if the expression can be loop lifted

        public boolean matchesCurrentGroup()
        Ask whether the pattern is anchored on a call on current-group()
        Returns:
        true if calls on matchesBeneathAnchor should test with all nodes in the current group as anchor nodes. If false, only the first node in a group is treated as the anchor node

      • setOriginalText

        Set the original text of the pattern for use in diagnostics
        Parameters:
        text - the original text of the pattern

      • isRecoverable

        public boolean isRecoverable()
        Ask whether dynamic errors in evaluating the pattern should be recovered. This is the default for normal XSLT patterns, but patterns used internally to represent scannable streaming expressions are non-recoverable
        Returns:
        true if dynamic errors in pattern evaluation should be treated as recoverable (if an error occurs, the pattern is treated as non-matching; a warning is sent to the ErrorListener).

      • setRecoverable

        public void setRecoverable​(boolean recoverable)
        Aay whether dynamic errors in evaluating the pattern should be recovered. This is the default for normal XSLT patterns, but patterns used internally to represent scannable streaming expressions are non-recoverable
        Parameters:
        recoverable - true if dynamic errors in pattern evaluation should be treated as recoverable (if an error occurs, the pattern is treated as non-matching; a warning is sent to the ErrorListener).

        protected void handleDynamicError​(XPathException ex,
                                  XPathContext context)
                           throws XPathException
        Handle a dynamic error occurring in the course of pattern evaluation. The effect depends on (a) whether the error is a circularity error, and (b) whether the pattern is marked as recoverable or not
        Parameters:
        ex - the exception
        context - the evaluation context
        Throws:
        XPathException - if the error is found to be non-recoverable

      • simplify

        public Pattern simplify()
                 throws XPathException

        XPathException - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)

      • getDependencies

        public int getDependencies()
        Get the dependencies of the pattern. The only interesting dependencies for a pattern are dependencies on local variables or on user-defined functions. These are analyzed in those patterns containing predicates.
        Overrides:
        getDependencies in class Expression
        Returns:
        the dependencies, as a bit-significant mask

        Returns:
        true if the pattern is motionless, that is, if it can be evaluated against a streamed node without changing the position in the streamed input file

      • effectiveBooleanValue

        public final boolean effectiveBooleanValue​(XPathContext context)

        Overrides:
        effectiveBooleanValue in class PseudoExpression
        Parameters:
        context - the evaluation context
        Returns:
        true if the context item matches the pattern

                          throws XPathException
        Determine whether this Pattern matches the given item. This is the main external interface for matching patterns: it calls the matches() method and handles any errors, by signalling a warning and returning false.
        Parameters:
        item - The item to be tested against the Pattern
        context - The dynamic context.
        Returns:
        true if the item matches the Pattern, false otherwise
        Throws:
        XPathException - if a non-recoverable error is found matching the pattern. Most errors however result in a warning and a return value of false.

      • matches

        public abstract boolean matches​(Item item,
                                XPathContext context)
                         throws XPathException
        Determine whether this Pattern matches the given item. This should be called via matchesItem() to get the XSLT-defined error handling behaviour.

        The method, where required, sets current() to the node being tested.

        Parameters:
        item - The item to be tested against the Pattern
        context - The dynamic context.
        Returns:
        true if the node matches the Pattern, false otherwise
        Throws:
        XPathException - if an error occurs while matching the pattern

      • matchesBeneathAnchor

        public boolean matchesBeneathAnchor​(NodeInfo node,

                                    XPathContext context)
                             throws XPathException
        Determine whether this pattern matches a given Node within the subtree rooted at a given anchor node. This method is used when the pattern is used for streaming.
        Parameters:
        node - The NodeInfo representing the Element or other node to be tested against the Pattern
        anchor - The anchor node, which must match any AnchorPattern subpattern
        context - The dynamic context. Only relevant if the pattern uses variables, or contains calls on functions such as document() or key().
        Returns:
        true if the node matches the Pattern, false otherwise
        Throws:
        XPathException - if an error occurs while matching the pattern (the caller will usually treat this the same as a false result)

      • selectNodes

        public SequenceIterator selectNodes​(TreeInfo document,
                                    XPathContext context)

        Select all nodes in a document that match this pattern.
        Parameters:
        document - the document

        Overrides:

      • setPriority

        public void setPriority​(double priority)
        Set a priority to override the default priority. This is used when the pattern is written in a complex form such as a[true()] justifying a priority of 0.5, but then simplifies down to an NodeTestPattern

        the default priority for the pattern

      • toString

        public java.lang.String toString()
        Get a string representation of the pattern. This will be in a form similar to the original pattern text, but not necessarily identical. It is not guaranteed to be in legal pattern syntax.

                 throws XPathException
        Perform optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions. This is the third and final phase of static optimization.
