    • getNode

      public NodeInfo getNode(XPathContext context) throws XPathException
      Return the node selected by this SingleNodeExpression
      Specified by:
      getNode in class SingleNodeExpression
      Parameters:
      context - The context for the evaluation
      Returns:
      the parent of the current node defined by the context
      Throws:
      XPathException
    • copy

      public Expression copy()
      Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.
      Specified by:
      copy in class Expression
      Returns:
      the copy of the original expression
    • addToPathMap

      public PathMap.PathMapNodeSet addToPathMap(PathMap pathMap, PathMap.PathMapNodeSet pathMapNodeSet)
      Add a representation of this expression to a PathMap. The PathMap captures a map of the nodes visited by an expression in a source tree.
      Overrides:
      addToPathMap in class Expression
      Parameters:
      pathMap - the PathMap to which the expression should be added
      pathMapNodeSet -
      Returns:
      the pathMapNode representing the focus established by this expression, in the case where this expression is the first operand of a path expression or filter expression
    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object other)
      Is this expression the same as another expression?
      Overrides:
      equals in class Object
    • hashCode

      public int hashCode()
      get HashCode for comparing two expressions
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object
    • toString

      public String toString()
      The toString() method for an expression attempts to give a representation of the expression in an XPath-like form, but there is no guarantee that the syntax will actually be true XPath. In the case of XSLT instructions, the toString() method gives an abstracted view of the syntax
      Overrides:
      toString in class Expression
    • explain

      public void explain(ExpressionPresenter destination)
      Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.
      Specified by:
      explain in class Expression
      Parameters:
      destination - the expression presenter used to display the structure
