All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, SourceLocator, Container, Expression, InstructionInfoProvider

public class UserFunctionCall
extends FunctionCall
implements InstructionInfoProvider

This class represents a call to a function defined in the stylesheet or query. It is used for all user-defined functions in XQuery, and for a limited class of user-defined functions in XSLT: those that can be reduced to the evaluation of a single expression.

Constructor Detail

UserFunctionCall

public UserFunctionCall()

Method Detail

setStaticType

public void setStaticType(SequenceType type)

Set the static type

setFunction

public void setFunction(UserFunction compiledFunction,
                        StaticContext env)
                 throws XPathException

Create the reference to the function to be called, and validate for consistency

Throws:

XPathException

checkFunctionCall

public void checkFunctionCall(UserFunction compiledFunction,
                              StaticContext env)
                       throws XPathException

Check the function call against the declared function signature

Throws:

XPathException

getFunction

public UserFunction getFunction()

Get the function that is being called by this function call

setConfirmed

public void setConfirmed(boolean conf)

Set this function as confirmed (the function being called is known to exist) or not

isConfirmed

public boolean isConfirmed()

Determine whether this function call is confirmed

getArguments

public Expression[] getArguments()

Get the arguments (the expressions supplied in the function call)

checkArguments

public void checkArguments(StaticContext env)
                    throws XPathException

Method called during the type checking phase

Specified by:

checkArguments in class FunctionCall

Throws:

XPathException

preEvaluate

public Expression preEvaluate(StaticContext env)

Pre-evaluate a function at compile time. This version of the method suppresses early evaluation by doing nothing.

Overrides:

preEvaluate in class FunctionCall

getItemType

public ItemType getItemType(TypeHierarchy th)

Determine the data type of the expression, if possible

Specified by:

getItemType in interface Expression

Parameters:

th -

Returns:

Type.ITEM (meaning not known in advance)

getIntrinsicDependencies

public int getIntrinsicDependencies()

Description copied from class: ComputedExpression

Determine the intrinsic dependencies of an expression, that is, those which are not derived from the dependencies of its subexpressions. For example, position() has an intrinsic dependency on the context position, while (position()+1) does not. The default implementation of the method returns 0, indicating "no dependencies".

Overrides:

getIntrinsicDependencies in class ComputedExpression

Returns:

a set of bit-significant flags identifying the "intrinsic" dependencies. The flags are documented in class net.sf.saxon.value.StaticProperty

computeCardinality

public int computeCardinality()

Determine the cardinality of the result

Specified by:

computeCardinality in class ComputedExpression

simplify

public Expression simplify(StaticContext env)
                    throws XPathException

Simplify the function call

Specified by:

simplify in interface Expression

Overrides:

simplify in class FunctionCall

Returns:

the simplified expression

Throws:

XPathException - if an error is discovered during expression rewriting

markTailFunctionCalls

public boolean markTailFunctionCalls()

Mark tail-recursive calls on stylesheet functions. For most expressions, this does nothing.

Overrides:

markTailFunctionCalls in class ComputedExpression

Returns:

true if a tail recursive call was found and if this call accounts for the whole of the value.

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext c)
                  throws XPathException

Call the function, returning the value as an item. This method will be used only when the cardinality is zero or one. If the function is tail recursive, it returns an Object representing the arguments to the next (recursive) call

Specified by:

evaluateItem in interface Expression

Overrides:

evaluateItem in class ComputedExpression

Parameters:

c - 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

iterate

public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext c)
                         throws XPathException

Call the function, returning an iterator over the results. (But if the function is tail recursive, it returns an iterator over the arguments of the recursive call)

Specified by:

iterate in interface Expression

Overrides:

iterate in class ComputedExpression

Parameters:

c - supplies the context for evaluation

Returns:

a SequenceIterator that can be used to iterate over the result of the expression

Throws:

XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

dynamicCall

public ValueRepresentation dynamicCall(ValueRepresentation[] suppliedArguments,
                                       XPathContext context)
                                throws XPathException

Call the function dynamically. For this to be possible, the static arguments of the function call must have been set up as SuppliedParameterReference objects. The actual arguments are placed on the callee's stack, and the type conversion takes place "in situ".

Throws:

XPathException

display

public void display(int level,
                    NamePool pool,
                    PrintStream out)

Description copied from interface: Expression

Diagnostic print of expression structure. The expression is written to the System.err output stream

Specified by:

display in interface Expression

Overrides:

display in class FunctionCall

Parameters:

level - indentation level for this expression

pool - NamePool used to expand any names appearing in the expression

out - Output destination

getInstructionInfo

public InstructionInfo getInstructionInfo()

Get diagnostic information about this expression

Specified by:

getInstructionInfo in interface InstructionInfoProvider

Overrides:

getInstructionInfo in class ComputedExpression
