Constructor Detail

Attribute

public Attribute(Expression attributeName,
                 Expression namespace,
                 NamespaceResolver nsContext,
                 int validationAction,
                 SimpleType schemaType,
                 int annotation)
Construct an Attribute instruction

Parameters:
attributeName - An expression to calculate the attribute name
namespace - An expression to calculate the attribute namespace
nsContext - a NamespaceContext object containing the static namespace context of the stylesheet instruction
annotation - Integer code identifying the type named in the type attribute of the instruction - zero if the attribute was not present
Method Detail

setRejectDuplicates

public void setRejectDuplicates()
Indicate that two attributes with the same name are not acceptable. (This option is set in XQuery, but not in XSLT)


getInstructionNameCode

public int getInstructionNameCode()
Get the name of this instruction

Overrides:
getInstructionNameCode in class Instruction

getItemType

public ItemType getItemType()
Description copied from class: Instruction
Get the item type of the items returned by evaluating this instruction

Specified by:
getItemType in interface Expression
Overrides:
getItemType in class Instruction
Returns:
the static item type of the instruction

getCardinality

public int getCardinality()
Description copied from class: ComputedExpression
Determine the static cardinality of the expression. This establishes how many items there will be in the result of the expression, at compile time (i.e., without actually evaluating the result.

Specified by:
getCardinality in interface Expression
Overrides:
getCardinality in class ComputedExpression
Returns:
one of the values Cardinality.ONE_OR_MORE, Cardinality.ZERO_OR_MORE, Cardinality.EXACTLY_ONE, Cardinality.ZERO_OR_ONE, Cardinality.EMPTY. This default implementation returns ZERO_OR_MORE (which effectively gives no information).

simplify

public Expression simplify(StaticContext env)
                    throws XPathException
Description copied from class: InstructionWithChildren
Simplify an expression. This performs any static optimization (by rewriting the expression as a different expression).

Specified by:
simplify in interface Expression
Overrides:
simplify in class SimpleNodeConstructor
Returns:
the simplified expression
Throws:
XPathException - if an error is discovered during expression rewriting

typeCheck

public void typeCheck(StaticContext env,
                      ItemType contextItemType)
               throws XPathException
Specified by:
typeCheck in class SimpleNodeConstructor
XPathException

getDependencies

public int getDependencies()
Description copied from class: ComputedExpression
Determine which aspects of the context the expression depends on. The result is a bitwise-or'ed value composed from constants such as XPathContext.VARIABLES and XPathContext.CURRENT_NODE. The default implementation combines the intrinsic dependencies of this expression with the dependencies of the subexpressions, computed recursively. This is overridden for expressions such as FilterExpression where a subexpression's dependencies are not necessarily inherited by the parent expression.

Specified by:
getDependencies in interface Expression
Overrides:
getDependencies in class ComputedExpression
Returns:
a set of bit-significant flags identifying the dependencies of the expression

iterateSubExpressions

public java.util.Iterator iterateSubExpressions()
Description copied from class: InstructionWithChildren
Get the immediate sub-expressions of this expression.

Specified by:
iterateSubExpressions in interface Expression
Overrides:
iterateSubExpressions in class SimpleNodeConstructor
Returns:
an iterator containing the sub-expressions of this expression

promoteInst

protected void promoteInst(PromotionOffer offer)
                    throws XPathException
Offer promotion for subexpressions. The offer will be accepted if the subexpression is not dependent on the factors (e.g. the context item) identified in the PromotionOffer. By default the offer is not accepted - this is appropriate in the case of simple expressions such as constant values and variable references where promotion would give no performance advantage. This method is always called at compile time.

Overrides:
promoteInst in class SimpleNodeConstructor
Parameters:
offer - details of the offer, for example the offer to move expressions that don't depend on the context to an outer level in the containing expression
Throws:
XPathException - if any error is detected

processLeavingTail

public TailCall processLeavingTail(XPathContext context)
                            throws XPathException
Process this instruction

Specified by:
processLeavingTail in class Instruction
Parameters:
context - the dynamic context of the transformation
Returns:
a TailCall to be executed by the caller, always null for this instruction
XPathException

evaluateNameCode

protected int evaluateNameCode(XPathContext context)
                        throws XPathException,
                               XPathException
Overrides:
evaluateNameCode in class SimpleNodeConstructor
XPathException

display

public void display(int level,
                    NamePool pool,
                    java.io.PrintStream out)
Display this instruction as an expression, for diagnostics

Specified by:
display in interface Expression
Overrides:
display in class SimpleNodeConstructor
Parameters:
level - indentation level for this expression
pool - NamePool used to expand any names appearing in the expression
out - Output destination
