All Implemented Interfaces:
FunctionItemType, ItemType

public class AnyFunctionType extends Object implements FunctionItemType
An ItemType representing the type function(*). Subtypes represent function items with more specific type signatures.

Note that although this class has a singleton instance representing the type function(*), there are also likely to be instances of subclasses representing more specific function types.

    • getBasicAlphaCode

      public String getBasicAlphaCode()
      Get an alphabetic code representing the type, or at any rate, the nearest built-in type from which this type is derived. The codes are designed so that for any two built-in types A and B, alphaCode(A) is a prefix of alphaCode(B) if and only if A is a supertype of B.
      Specified by:
      getBasicAlphaCode in interface ItemType

      Specified by:
      getArgumentTypes in interface FunctionItemType
      Returns:
      the argument types, as an array of SequenceTypes, or null if this is the generic function type function(*)
    • getAnnotationAssertions

      public AnnotationList getAnnotationAssertions()
      Get the list of annotation assertions defined on this function item type.
      Specified by:
      getAnnotationAssertions in interface FunctionItemType
      Returns:
      the list of annotation assertions, or an empty list if there are none
    • matches

      public boolean matches(Item item, TypeHierarchy th)
      Test whether a given item conforms to this type
      Specified by:
      matches in interface ItemType
      Parameters:
      item - The item to be tested
      th - The type hierarchy cache
      Returns:
      true if the item is an instance of this type; false otherwise
    • getPrimitiveItemType

      public final ItemType getPrimitiveItemType()
      Get the primitive item type corresponding to this item type. For item(), this is Type.ITEM. For node(), it is Type.NODE. For specific node kinds, it is the value representing the node kind, for example Type.ELEMENT. For anyAtomicValue it is Type.ATOMIC_VALUE. For numeric it is Type.NUMBER. For other atomic types it is the primitive type as defined in XML Schema, except that integer, xs:dayTimeDuration, and xs:yearMonthDuration are considered to be primitive types. For function items it is the singular instance FunctionItemType.getInstance().
      Specified by:
      getPrimitiveItemType in interface ItemType
      Returns:
      the corresponding primitive type
    • getPrimitiveType

      public final int getPrimitiveType()
