Method Detail

setArguments

public void setArguments(java.util.List arguments)
                  throws XPathException
Description copied from class: Function
Set the (static) arguments for this function from a list of expressions. This will also check the type and cardinality of the passed argument expressions.

Overrides:
setArguments in class Function
Parameters:
arguments -
Throws:
XPathException

getDependencies

public int getDependencies()
Description copied from class: AbstractExpression
Returns Dependency.DEFAULT_DEPENDENCIES.

Specified by:
getDependencies in interface Expression
Overrides:
getDependencies in class Function

returnsType

public int returnsType()
Description copied from interface: Expression
The static return type of the expression. This method should return one of the type constants defined in class Type. If the return type cannot be determined statically, return Type.ITEM.

Specified by:
returnsType in interface Expression
Overrides:
returnsType in class Function

analyze

public void analyze(AnalyzeContextInfo contextInfo)
             throws XPathException
Description copied from interface: Expression
Statically analyze the expression and its subexpressions. During the static analysis phase, the query engine can detect unknown variables and some type errors.

Specified by:
analyze in interface Expression
Overrides:
analyze in class Function
Throws:
XPathException

eval

public Sequence eval(Sequence contextSequence,
                     Item contextItem)
              throws XPathException
Description copied from interface: Expression
Evaluate the expression represented by this object. Depending on the context in which this expression is executed, either the context sequence, the context item or both of them may be set. An implementing class should know how to handle this. The general contract is as follows: if the Dependency.CONTEXT_ITEM bit is set in the bit field returned by Expression.getDependencies(), the eval method will be called once for every item in the context sequence. The contextItem parameter will be set to the current item. Otherwise, the eval method will only be called once for the whole context sequence and contextItem will be null. eXist tries to process the entire context set in one, single step whenever possible. Thus, most classes only expect context to contain a list of nodes which represents the current context of the expression. The position() function in XPath is an example for an expression, which requires both, context sequence and context item to be set. The context sequence might be a node set, a sequence of atomic values or a single node or atomic value.

eval in interface Expression
Specified by:
eval in class Function
Throws:
