public final class SingletonAtomizer extends UnaryExpression
A SingletonAtomizer combines the functions of an Atomizer and a CardinalityChecker: it is used to atomize a sequence of nodes, checking that the result of the atomization contains zero or one atomic values. Note that the input may be a sequence of nodes or atomic values, even though the result must contain at most one atomic value.

  • Constructor Details

    • SingletonAtomizer

      public SingletonAtomizer(Expression sequence, Supplier<RoleDiagnostic> role, boolean allowEmpty)
      Constructor
      Parameters:
      sequence - the sequence to be atomized
      role - contains information about where the expression appears, for use in any error message

      Returns:
      the simplified expression (or the original if unchanged, or if modified in-situ)
      Throws:
      XPathException - if an error is discovered during expression rewriting

    • typeCheck

      Type-check the expression
      Overrides:
      typeCheck in class UnaryExpression

      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: UnaryExpression
      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 UnaryExpression
      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)

    • computeSpecialProperties

      protected int computeSpecialProperties()
      Determine the special properties of this expression
      Overrides:
      computeSpecialProperties in class UnaryExpression
      Returns:
      StaticProperty.NO_NODES_NEWLY_CREATED.

    • copy

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

    • 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

    • getRole

      public RoleDiagnostic getRole()

      Returns:
      the roleDiagnostic locator

    • evaluateItem

      public AtomicValue evaluateItem(XPathContext context) throws XPathException
      Evaluate as an Item. This should only be called if a singleton or empty sequence is required; it throws a type error if the underlying sequence is multi-valued.

      evaluateItem in class Expression
      Parameters:
      context - The context in which the expression is to be evaluated
      Returns:

      Overrides:
      getItemType in class UnaryExpression
      Returns:
      a value such as Type.STRING, Type.BOOLEAN, Type.NUMBER. For this class, the result is always an atomic type, but it might be more specific.
