Method Detail

getConfiguration

Configuration getConfiguration()
Get the system configuration

Returns:
the Saxon configuration

getExecutable

Executable getExecutable()
Get the executable associated with this static context. The Executable generally holds details of function libraries and collations. For freestanding XPath expressions, there will generally be a single executable corresponding one-to-one with the static context object, and which can be created as soon as the Configuration is known.

Returns:
the Executable

makeEarlyEvaluationContext

XPathContext makeEarlyEvaluationContext()
Construct a dynamic context for early evaluation of constant subexpressions.

Returns:
a newly constructed dynamic context

getLocationMap

LocationMap getLocationMap()
Get the location map. This is a mapping from short location ids held with each expression or subexpression, to a fully-resolved location in a source stylesheet or query.

Returns:
the location map

issueWarning

void issueWarning(String message,
                  SourceLocator locator)
Issue a compile-time warning.

Parameters:
message - The warning message. This should not contain any prefix such as "Warning".
locator - the location of the construct in question. May be null.

getSystemId

String getSystemId()
Get the System ID of the container of the expression. This is the containing entity (file) and is therefore useful for diagnostics. Use getBaseURI() to get the base URI, which may be different.

Returns:
the system ID

getLineNumber

int getLineNumber()
Get the line number of the expression within its containing entity Returns -1 if no line number is available

Returns:
the line number, or -1 if not available

getBaseURI

String getBaseURI()
Get the Base URI of the stylesheet element, for resolving any relative URI's used in the expression. Used by the document(), doc(), resolve-uri(), and base-uri() functions. May return null if the base URI is not known.

Returns:
the static base URI, or null if not known

getURIForPrefix

String getURIForPrefix(String prefix)
                       throws XPathException
Get the URI for a namespace prefix. The default namespace is NOT used when the prefix is empty.

Parameters:
prefix - The namespace prefix.
Returns:
the corresponding namespace URI
Throws:
XPathException - if the prefix is not declared

getNamePool

NamePool getNamePool()
Get the NamePool used for compiling expressions

Returns:
the name pool

bindVariable

Expression bindVariable(StructuredQName qName)
                        throws XPathException
Bind a variable used in this element to the XSLVariable element in which it is declared

Parameters:
qName - The name of the variable
Returns:
an expression representing the variable reference, This will often be a VariableReference, suitably initialized to refer to the corresponding variable declaration, but in general it can be any expression.
Throws:
XPathException

getFunctionLibrary

FunctionLibrary getFunctionLibrary()
Get the function library containing all the in-scope functions available in this static context

Returns:
the function library

getCollation

StringCollator getCollation(String name)
Get a named collation.

Parameters:
name - The name of the required collation. Supply null to get the default collation.
Returns:
the collation; or null if the required collation is not found.

getDefaultCollationName

String getDefaultCollationName()
Get the name of the default collation.

Returns:
the name of the default collation; or the name of the codepoint collation if no default collation has been defined

getDefaultElementNamespace

String getDefaultElementNamespace()
Get the default XPath namespace for elements and types

Returns:
the default namespace, or NamespaceConstant.NULL for the non-namespace

getDefaultFunctionNamespace

String getDefaultFunctionNamespace()
Get the default function namespace

Returns:
the default namespace for function names

isInBackwardsCompatibleMode

boolean isInBackwardsCompatibleMode()
Ask whether Backwards Compatible Mode is used

Returns:
true if running in XPath 1.0 compatibility mode

isImportedSchema

boolean isImportedSchema(String namespace)
Ask whether a Schema for a given target namespace has been imported. Note that the in-scope element declarations, attribute declarations and schema types are the types registered with the (schema-aware) configuration, provided that their namespace URI is registered in the static context as being an imported schema namespace. (A consequence of this is that within a Configuration, there can only be one schema for any given namespace, including the null namespace).

Parameters:
namespace - the target namespace in question
Returns:
true if the given namespace has been imported

getImportedSchemaNamespaces

Set getImportedSchemaNamespaces()
Get the set of imported schemas

Returns:
a Set, the set of URIs representing the target namespaces of imported schemas, using the zero-length string to denote the "null" namespace.

isAllowedBuiltInType

boolean isAllowedBuiltInType(BuiltInAtomicType type)
Ask whether a built-in type is available in this context. This method caters for differences between host languages as to which set of types are built in.

Parameters:
type - the supposedly built-in type. This will always be a type in the XS namespace.
Returns:
true if this type can be used in this static context

getNamespaceResolver

NamespaceResolver getNamespaceResolver()
Get a namespace resolver to resolve the namespaces declared in this static context.

Returns:
a namespace resolver.

getDecimalFormatManager

DecimalFormatManager getDecimalFormatManager()
Get a DecimalFormatManager to resolve the names of decimal formats used in calls to the format-number() function.

Returns:
the decimal format manager for this static context, or null if named decimal formats are not supported in this environment.
