public final class FunctionSequenceCoercer
extends UnaryExpression

An FunctionSequenceCoercer is an expression that performs function coercion on a sequence of function items: it takes a sequence of supplied items as input, and wraps each one in a CoercedFunction value, which dynamically converts the supplied arguments to the required type, and converts the result in the opposite direction, or throws a type error if conversion is not possible.

Constructor Detail

FunctionSequenceCoercer

public FunctionSequenceCoercer(Expression sequence,
                               SpecificFunctionType requiredItemType,
                               RoleDiagnostic role)

Constructor

Parameters:

sequence - this must be a sequence of function item values. This is not checked; a ClassCastException will occur if the precondition is not satisfied.

requiredItemType - the function item type to which all items in the sequence should be converted,

Method Detail

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

simplify

public Expression simplify()
                    throws XPathException

Simplify an expression

Overrides:

simplify in class Expression

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

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

Type-check the expression

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)

computeSpecialProperties

public int computeSpecialProperties()

Determine the special properties of this expression

Overrides:

computeSpecialProperties in class UnaryExpression

Returns:

StaticProperty.NON_CREATIVE.

copy

public Expression copy(RebindingMap rebindings)

Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.

Specified by:

copy in class Expression

Parameters:

rebindings -

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

iterate

public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context)
                         throws XPathException

Iterate over the sequence of functions, wrapping each one in a CoercedFunction object

Overrides:

iterate in class Expression

Parameters:

context - supplies the context for evaluation

Returns:

a SequenceIterator that can be used to iterate over the result of the expression

Throws:

XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

evaluateItem

public Function evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                      throws XPathException

Evaluate as an Item. This should only be called if the FunctionSequenceCoercer has cardinality zero-or-one

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

getItemType

public SpecificFunctionType getItemType()

Determine the data type of the items returned by the expression, if possible

Overrides:

getItemType in class UnaryExpression

Returns:

a value such as Type.STRING, Type.BOOLEAN, Type.NUMBER, Type.NODE, or Type.ITEM (meaning not known in advance)

computeCardinality

public int computeCardinality()

Determine the static cardinality of the expression

Overrides:

computeCardinality in class UnaryExpression

Returns:

the computed cardinality, as one of the values StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ZERO_OR_ONE, StaticProperty.EXACTLY_ONE, StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ONE_OR_MORE, StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ZERO_OR_MORE

getRole

public RoleDiagnostic getRole()

Returns:

the role locator

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object other)

Is this expression the same as another expression?

Overrides:

equals in class UnaryExpression

computeHashCode

public int computeHashCode()

Description copied from class: UnaryExpression

get HashCode for comparing two expressions. Note that this hashcode gives the same result for (A op B) and for (B op A), whether or not the operator is commutative.

Overrides:

computeHashCode in class UnaryExpression

getExpressionName

public java.lang.String getExpressionName()

Description copied from class: Expression

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 export() output displaying the expression.

export

public void export(ExpressionPresenter destination)
            throws XPathException

Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.

Specified by:

export in interface ExportAgent

Overrides:

export in class UnaryExpression

Parameters:

destination - the expression presenter used to display the structure

Throws:

XPathException - if the export fails, for example if an expression is found that won't work in the target environment.
