CastableExpression
Create a "castable" expression of the form "source castable as target"- Parameters:
source
- The source expressiontarget
- The type being tested againstallowEmpty
- true if an empty sequence is acceptable, that is if the expression was written as "source castable as target?"
-
-
Method Details
-
getTargetType
Get the target type- Returns:
- the target type
-
allowsEmpty
public boolean allowsEmpty()Determine whether the empty sequence is allowed- Returns:
- true if an empty sequence is allowed
-
simplify
Simplify the expression- Overrides:
simplify
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
visitor
- an expression visitor- Returns:
- the simplified expression
- Throws:
XPathException
- if an error is discovered during expression rewriting
-
typeCheck
public Expression typeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ItemType contextItemType) throws XPathException Type-check the expression- Overrides:
typeCheck
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
visitor
- an expression visitorcontextItemType
- 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 toType.ITEM_TYPE
- 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)
-
optimize
public Expression optimize(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ItemType contextItemType) throws XPathException Optimize the expression- Overrides:
optimize
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
visitor
- an expression visitorcontextItemType
- 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 toType.ITEM_TYPE
- Returns:
- the original expression, rewritten if appropriate to optimize execution
- Throws:
XPathException
- if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)
-
equals
Is this expression the same as another expression?- Overrides:
equals
in classUnaryExpression
-
getItemType
Determine the data type of the result of the Castable expression- Overrides:
getItemType
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
th
- the type hierarchy cache- Returns:
- the item type of the items in the result sequence, insofar as this is known statically.
-
computeCardinality
public int computeCardinality()Description copied from class:UnaryExpression
Determine the static cardinality. Default implementation returns the cardinality of the operand- Overrides:
computeCardinality
in classUnaryExpression
- 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
-
computeSpecialProperties
public int computeSpecialProperties()Determine the special properties of this expression- Overrides:
computeSpecialProperties
in classUnaryExpression
- Returns:
StaticProperty.NON_CREATIVE
.
-
copy
Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.- Specified by:
copy
in classExpression
- Returns:
- the copy of the original expression
-
evaluateItem
Evaluate the expression- Specified by:
evaluateItem
in interfaceEvaluableItem
- Overrides:
evaluateItem
in classExpression
- 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
-
effectiveBooleanValue
Description copied from class:Expression
Get the effective boolean value of the expression. This returns false if the value is the empty sequence, a zero-length string, a number equal to zero, or the boolean false. Otherwise it returns true.- Overrides:
effectiveBooleanValue
in classExpression
- Parameters:
context
- The context in which the expression is to be evaluated- Returns:
- the effective boolean value
- Throws:
XPathException
- if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression
-
isCastable
Determine whether a value is castable to a given type- Parameters:
value
- the value to be testedtargetType
- the type to be tested againstcontext
- XPath dynamic context- Returns:
- true if the value is castable to the required type
-
explain
Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.- Overrides:
explain
in classUnaryExpression
- Parameters:
out
- the expression presenter used to display the structure
-
