public class FunctionLookup
extends ContextAccessorFunction

This class supports the function-lookup() function in XPath 3.0. It takes as arguments a function name (QName) and arity, and returns a function item representing that function if found, or an empty sequence if not found.

Method Detail

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Determine whether two expressions are equivalent

Overrides:

equals in class SystemFunction

bindContext

public Function bindContext(XPathContext context)
                     throws XPathException

Bind a context item to appear as part of the function's closure. If this method has been called, the supplied context item will be used in preference to the context item at the point where the function is actually called.

Specified by:

bindContext in class ContextAccessorFunction

Parameters:

context - the context to which the function applies. Must not be null.

Throws:

XPathException

lookup

public Function lookup(StructuredQName name,
              int arity,
              XPathContext context)
                throws XPathException

Throws:

XPathException

call

public Sequence call(XPathContext context,
            Sequence[] arguments)
              throws XPathException

Evaluate the expression

Specified by:

call in interface Callable

Specified by:

call in interface Function

Overrides:

call in class ContextAccessorFunction

Parameters:

context - the dynamic evaluation context

arguments - the values of the arguments, supplied as SequenceIterators

Returns:

the result of the evaluation, in the form of a SequenceIterator

Throws:

XPathException - if a dynamic error occurs during the evaluation of the expression
