Method Detail

typeCheck

public Expression typeCheck(StaticContext env,
                            ItemType contextItemType)
                     throws XPathException
Description copied from class: FunctionCall
Type-check the expression. This also calls preEvaluate() to evaluate the function if all the arguments are constant; functions that do not require this behavior can override the preEvaluate method.

Specified by:
typeCheck in interface Expression
Overrides:
typeCheck in class FunctionCall
Parameters:
env - the static context of the expression
contextItemType - the static type of "." at the point where this expression is invoked. The parameter is set to null if it is known statically that the context item will be undefined. If the type of the context item is not known statically, the argument is set to Type.ITEM_TYPE
Returns:
the original expression, rewritten to perform necessary run-time type checks, and to perform other type-related optimizations
Throws:
StaticError - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)
XPathException

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                  throws XPathException
Evaluate the function

Specified by:
evaluateItem in interface Expression
Overrides:
evaluateItem in class ComputedExpression
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
