Constructor Detail

### LocalParamBlock

    public LocalParamBlock(LocalParamSetter[] params)

  Create the block of parameters

  Parameters:
    `params` - the parameters

Method Detail

### getExpressionName

    public String getExpressionName()

  Description copied from class: `Instruction`
  Get a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user.

  Overrides:
    `getExpressionName` in class `Instruction`
  Returns:
    a name identifying the kind of expression, in terms meaningful to a user. The name will always be in the form of a lexical XML QName, and should match the name used in explain() output displaying the expression.

### getChildren

    public LocalParamSetter[] getChildren()

  Get the children of this instruction

  Returns:
    the children of this instruction, as an array of Instruction objects. May return a zero-length array if there are no children

### computeSpecialProperties

    public int computeSpecialProperties()

  Description copied from class: `Instruction`
  Get the static properties of this expression (other than its type). The result is bit-signficant. These properties are used for optimizations. In general, if property bit is set, it is true, but if it is unset, the value is unknown.

  Overrides:
    `computeSpecialProperties` in class `Instruction`
  Returns:
    a set of flags indicating static properties of this expression

### iterateSubExpressions

    public Iterator<Expression> iterateSubExpressions()

  Description copied from class: `Expression`
  Get the immediate sub-expressions of this expression. Default implementation returns a zero-length array, appropriate for an expression that has no sub-expressions.

  Overrides:
    `iterateSubExpressions` in class `Expression`
  Returns:
    an iterator containing the sub-expressions of this expression

### replaceSubExpression

    public boolean replaceSubExpression(Expression original,
                                        Expression replacement)

  Replace one subexpression by a replacement subexpression

  Overrides:
    `replaceSubExpression` in class `Expression`
  Parameters:
    `original` - the original subexpression
    `replacement` - the replacement subexpression
  Returns:
    true if the original subexpression is found

### 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

### getItemType

    public final ItemType getItemType(TypeHierarchy th)

  Determine the data type of the items returned by this expression

  Overrides:
    `getItemType` in class `Instruction`
  Parameters:
    `th` - the type hierarchy cache
  Returns:
    the data type

### getCardinality

    public final int getCardinality()

  Determine the cardinality of the expression

  Overrides:
    `getCardinality` in class `Expression`
  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(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                        throws XPathException

  Simplify an expression. This performs any static optimization (by rewriting the expression as a different expression). The default implementation does nothing.

  Specified by:
    `simplify` in class `Instruction`
  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,
                                ExpressionVisitor.ContextItemType contextItemType)
                         throws XPathException

  Description copied from class: `Expression`
  Perform type checking of an expression and its subexpressions. This is the second phase of static optimization.

  This checks statically that the operands of the expression have the correct type; if necessary it generates code to do run-time type checking or type conversion. A static type error is reported only if execution cannot possibly succeed, that is, if a run-time type error is inevitable. The call may return a modified form of the expression.

  This method is called after all references to functions and variables have been resolved to the declaration of the function or variable. However, the types of such functions and variables may not be accurately known if they have not been explicitly declared.

  If the implementation returns a value other than "this", then it is required to ensure that the location information in the returned expression have been set up correctly. It should not rely on the caller to do this, although for historical reasons many callers do so.

  Overrides:
    `typeCheck` in class `Expression`
  Parameters:
    `visitor` - an expression visitor
    `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:
    `XPathException` - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)

### optimize

    public Expression optimize(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                               ExpressionVisitor.ContextItemType contextItemType)
                        throws XPathException

  Description copied from class: `Expression`
  Perform optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions. This is the third and final phase of static optimization.

  This method is called after all references to functions and variables have been resolved to the declaration of the function or variable, and after all type checking has been done.

  Overrides:
    `optimize` in class `Expression`
  Parameters:
    `visitor` - an expression visitor
    `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 if appropriate to optimize execution
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)

### promoteInst

    protected void promoteInst(PromotionOffer offer)
                        throws XPathException

  Handle promotion offers, that is, non-local tree rewrites.

  Overrides:
    `promoteInst` in class `Instruction`
  Parameters:
    `offer` - The type of rewrite being offered
  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### explain

    public void explain(ExpressionPresenter out)

  Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.

  Specified by:
    `explain` in class `Expression`
  Parameters:
    `out` - the expression presenter used to display the structure

### processLeavingTail

    public TailCall processLeavingTail(XPathContext context)
                                throws XPathException

  Description copied from class: `Instruction`
  ProcessLeavingTail: called to do the real work of this instruction. This method must be implemented in each subclass. The results of the instruction are written to the current Receiver, which can be obtained via the Controller.

  Specified by:
    `processLeavingTail` in interface `TailCallReturner`
  Specified by:
    `processLeavingTail` in class `Instruction`
  Parameters:
    `context` - The dynamic context of the transformation, giving access to the current node, the current variables, etc.
  Returns:
    null if the instruction has completed execution; or a TailCall indicating a function call or template call that is delegated to the caller, to be made after the stack has been unwound so as to save stack space.
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if a dynamic error occurs during the evaluation of the instruction

### getImplementationMethod

    public int getImplementationMethod()

  An implementation of Expression must provide at least one of the methods evaluateItem(), iterate(), or process(). This method indicates which of these methods is provided. This implementation provides both iterate() and process() methods natively.

  Overrides:
    `getImplementationMethod` in class `Instruction`
  Returns:
    the implementation method, for example `Expression.ITERATE_METHOD` or `Expression.EVALUATE_METHOD` or `Expression.PROCESS_METHOD`
