All Implemented Interfaces:

public class NegateExpression
extends UnaryExpression

Negate Expression: implements the unary minus operator. This expression is initially created as an ArithmeticExpression (or in backwards compatibility mode, an ArithmeticExpression10) to take advantage of the type checking code. So we don't need to worry about type checking or argument conversion.

Constructor Detail

NegateExpression

public NegateExpression(Expression base)

Create a NegateExpression

Parameters:

base - the expression that computes the value whose sign is to be reversed

Method Detail

setBackwardsCompatible

public void setBackwardsCompatible(boolean compatible)

Set whether the expression is to be evaluated in XPath 1.0 compatibility mode

Parameters:

compatible - true if XPath 1.0 compatibility mode is enabled

isBackwardsCompatible

public boolean isBackwardsCompatible()

Ask whether the expression is to be evaluated in XPath 1.0 compatibility mode

Returns:

true if XPath 1.0 compatibility mode is enabled

getOperandRole

protected OperandRole getOperandRole()

Description copied from class: UnaryExpression

Get the usage (in terms of streamability analysis) of the single operand

Specified by:

getOperandRole in class UnaryExpression

Returns:

the operand usage

typeCheck

public Expression typeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                   ContextItemStaticInfo contextInfo)
                     throws XPathException

Description copied from class: UnaryExpression

Type-check the expression. Default implementation for unary operators that accept any kind of operand

Overrides:

typeCheck in class UnaryExpression

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)

getItemType

public ItemType getItemType()

Determine the data type of the expression, if this is known statically

/*@NotNull

Overrides:

getItemType in class UnaryExpression

Returns:

the item type of the items in the result sequence, insofar as this is known statically.

evaluateItem

public NumericValue evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                          throws XPathException

Evaluate the expression.

Overrides:

evaluateItem in class Expression

Parameters:

context - The context in which the expression is to be evaluated

Returns:

the node or atomic value that results from evaluating the expression; or null to indicate that the result is an empty sequence

Throws:

XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

getExpressionCompiler

public ExpressionCompiler getExpressionCompiler()

Return the compiler of the Negate expression

Overrides:

getExpressionCompiler in class Expression

Returns:

the relevant ExpressionCompiler

copy

public Expression copy()

Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.

Specified by:

copy in class Expression

Returns:

the copy of the original expression

displayOperator

protected String displayOperator(Configuration config)

Description copied from class: UnaryExpression

Give a string representation of the operator for use in diagnostics

Overrides:

displayOperator in class UnaryExpression

Parameters:

config - the Saxon configuration

Returns:

the operator, as a string

getExpressionName

public String getExpressionName()

Get a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user.

Overrides:

getExpressionName in class Expression

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.
