public abstract class AtomicValue extends java.lang.Object implements Item, AtomicSequence, ConversionResult, IdentityComparable
The AtomicValue class corresponds to the concept of an atomic value in the XPath 2.0 data model. Atomic values belong to one of the 19 primitive types defined in XML Schema; or they are of type xs:untypedAtomic; or they are "external objects", representing a Saxon extension to the XPath 2.0 type system.The AtomicValue class contains some methods that are suitable for applications to use, and many others that are designed for internal use by Saxon itself. These have not been fully classified. At present, therefore, none of the methods on this class should be considered to be part of the public Saxon API.

atomize
public AtomicSequence atomize() throws XPathException
Atomize the item.- Specified by:
atomizein interfaceItem- Returns:
- the result of atomization
- Throws:
XPathException- if atomization is not allowed for this kind of item
-
head
public final AtomicValue head()
To implementSequence, this method returns the item itself- Specified by:
headin interfaceAtomicSequence- Specified by:
headin interfaceGroundedValue- Specified by:
headin interfaceItem- Specified by:
headin interfaceSequence- Returns:
- this item
-
getLength
public int getLength()
Get the length of the sequence- Specified by:
getLengthin interfaceAtomicSequence- Specified by:
getLengthin interfaceGroundedValue- Specified by:
getLengthin interfaceItem- Returns:
- the number of items in the sequence (always one)
-
setTypeLabel
public void setTypeLabel(AtomicType type)
Set the type label on this atomic value. Note that this modifies the value, so it must only called if the caller is confident that the value is not shared. In other cases, usecopyAsSubType(net.sf.saxon.type.AtomicType)- Parameters:
type- the type label to be set
-
getSchemaComparable
public abstract java.lang.Comparable getSchemaComparable()
Get a Comparable value that implements the XML Schema ordering comparison semantics for this value. An implementation must be provided for all atomic types.In the case of data types that are partially ordered, the returned Comparable extends the standard semantics of the compareTo() method by returning the value
SequenceTool.INDETERMINATE_ORDERINGwhen there is no defined order relationship between two given values. This value is also returned when two values of different types are compared.- Specified by:
getSchemaComparablein interfaceAtomicSequence- Returns:
- a Comparable that follows XML Schema comparison rules
-
getXPathComparable
public abstract AtomicMatchKey getXPathComparable(boolean ordered, StringCollator collator, int implicitTimezone) throws NoDynamicContextException
Get an object value that implements the XPath equality and ordering comparison semantics for this value. If the ordered parameter is set to true, the result will be a Comparable and will support a compareTo() method with the semantics of the XPath lt/gt operator, provided that the other operand is also obtained using the getXPathComparable() method. In all cases the result will support equals() and hashCode() methods that support the semantics of the XPath eq operator, again provided that the other operand is also obtained using the getXPathComparable() method. A collation is supplied for comparing strings, and an implicit timezone for comparing date/time values that have no saved timezone.- Parameters:
ordered- true if an ordered comparison is required. In this case the result is null if the type is unordered; in other cases the returned value will be a Comparable.collator- the collation to be used when comparing stringsimplicitTimezone- the implicit timezone in the dynamic context, used when comparing dates/times with and without timezone- Returns:
- an Object whose equals() and hashCode() methods implement the XPath comparison semantics with respect to this atomic value. If ordered is specified, the result will either be null if no ordering is defined, or will be a Comparable
- Throws:
NoDynamicContextException- if the supplied implicit timezone is "NO_TIMEZONE" (meaning unknown), and the implicit timezone is actually required because the value in question is a date/time value with no timezone. This can cause a failure to evaluate expressions statically (because the implicit timezone is not known statically), and it will then be caught, meaning that the expression has to be evaluated dynamically.
-
asMapKey
public AtomicMatchKey asMapKey()
Get a value whose equals() method follows the "same key" rules for comparing the keys of a map.- Returns:
- a value with the property that the equals() and hashCode() methods follow the rules for comparing keys in maps.
-
equals
public abstract boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)
The equals() methods on atomic values is defined to follow the semantics of eq when applied to two atomic values. When the other operand is not an atomic value, the result is undefined (may be false, may be an exception). When the other operand is an atomic value that cannot be compared with this one, the method must throw a ClassCastException.The hashCode() method is consistent with equals().
- Overrides:
equalsin classjava.lang.Object- Parameters:
o- the other value- Returns:
- true if the other operand is an atomic value and the two values are equal as defined by the XPath eq operator
-
isIdentical
public boolean isIdentical(AtomicValue v)
Determine whether two atomic values are identical, as determined by XML Schema rules. This is a stronger test than equality (even schema-equality); for example two dateTime values are not identical unless they are in the same timezone.Note that even this check ignores the type annotation of the value. The integer 3 and the short 3 are considered identical, even though they are not fully interchangeable. "Identical" means the same point in the value space, regardless of type annotation.
NaN is identical to itself.
- Parameters:
v- the other value to be compared with this one- Returns:
- true if the two values are identical, false otherwise.
-
isIdentical
public boolean isIdentical(IdentityComparable other)
Determine whether two IdentityComparable objects are identical. This is a stronger test than equality (even schema-equality); for example two dateTime values are not identical unless they are in the same timezone.- Specified by:
isIdenticalin interfaceIdentityComparable- Parameters:
other- the value to be compared- Returns:
- true if the two values are identical, false otherwise
-
identityHashCode
public int identityHashCode()
Get a hashCode that offers the guarantee that if A.isIdentical(B), then A.identityHashCode() == B.identityHashCode()- Specified by:
identityHashCodein interfaceIdentityComparable- Returns:
- a hashCode suitable for use when testing for identity.
-
getStringValueCS
public java.lang.CharSequence getStringValueCS()
Get the value of the item as a CharSequence. This is in some cases more efficient than the version of the method that returns a String.- Specified by:
getStringValueCSin interfaceAtomicSequence- Specified by:
getStringValueCSin interfaceGroundedValue- Specified by:
getStringValueCSin interfaceItem- Returns:
- the string value of the item
- See Also:
Item.getStringValue()
-
getCanonicalLexicalRepresentation
public java.lang.CharSequence getCanonicalLexicalRepresentation()
Get the canonical lexical representation as defined in XML Schema. This is not always the same as the result of casting to a string according to the XPath rules.- Specified by:
getCanonicalLexicalRepresentationin interfaceAtomicSequence- Returns:
- the canonical lexical representation if defined in XML Schema; otherwise, the result of casting to string according to the XPath 2.0 rules
-
itemAt
public final AtomicValue itemAt(int n)
Get the n'th item in the sequence (starting from 0). This is defined for all Values, but its real benefits come for a sequence Value stored extensionally (or for a MemoClosure, once all the values have been read)- Specified by:
itemAtin interfaceAtomicSequence- Specified by:
itemAtin interfaceGroundedValue- Specified by:
itemAtin interfaceItem- Parameters:
n- position of the required item, counting from zero.- Returns:
- the n'th item in the sequence, where the first item in the sequence is numbered zero. If n is negative or >= the length of the sequence, returns null.
-
getItemType
public final AtomicType getItemType()
Determine the data type of the value- Returns:
- the type annotation of the atomic value
-
getPrimitiveType
public abstract BuiltInAtomicType getPrimitiveType()
Determine the primitive type of the value. This delivers the same answer as getItemType().getPrimitiveItemType(). The primitive types are the 19 primitive types of XML Schema, plus xs:integer, xs:dayTimeDuration and xs:yearMonthDuration, and xs:untypedAtomic. For external objects, the result is xs:anyAtomicType.- Returns:
- the primitive type
-
getUType
public final UType getUType()
Determine the UType of the value. This delivers the same answer as getItemType().getUType()- Returns:
- the primitive UType
-
getCardinality
public final int getCardinality()
Determine the static cardinality- Returns:
- code identifying the cardinality
- See Also:
Cardinality
-
copyAsSubType
public abstract AtomicValue copyAsSubType(AtomicType typeLabel)
Create a copy of this atomic value, with a different type label- Parameters:
typeLabel- the type label of the new copy. The caller is responsible for checking that the value actually conforms to this type.- Returns:
- the copied value
-
isNaN
public boolean isNaN()
Test whether the value is the special value NaN- Returns:
- true if the value is float NaN or double NaN or precisionDecimal NaN; otherwise false
-
getStringValue
public final java.lang.String getStringValue()
Convert the value to a string, using the serialization rules. For atomic values this is the same as a cast; for sequence values it gives a space-separated list. This method is refined for AtomicValues so that it never throws an Exception.- Specified by:
getStringValuein interfaceAtomicSequence- Specified by:
getStringValuein interfaceGroundedValue- Specified by:
getStringValuein interfaceItem- Returns:
- the string value of the item
- See Also:
Item.getStringValueCS()
-
getPrimitiveStringValue
protected abstract java.lang.CharSequence getPrimitiveStringValue()
Convert the value to a string, using the serialization rules for the primitive type. This is the result of conversion to a string except that postprocessing defined by the saxon:preprocess facet is not (yet) applied.- Returns:
- the value converted to a string according to the rules for the primitive type
-
effectiveBooleanValue
public boolean effectiveBooleanValue() throws XPathExceptionGet the effective boolean value of the value- Specified by:
effectiveBooleanValuein interfaceGroundedValue- Returns:
- true, unless the value is boolean false, numeric zero, or zero-length string
- Throws:
XPathException- if effective boolean value is not defined for this type (the default behaviour)
-
getComponent
public AtomicValue getComponent(AccessorFn.Component component) throws XPathException
Method to extract components of a value. Implemented by some subclasses, but defined at this level for convenience- Parameters:
component- identifies the required component, as a constant defined in classAccessorFn- Returns:
- the value of the requested component of this value
- Throws:
XPathException- if a dynamic error occursjava.lang.UnsupportedOperationException- if applied to a value of a type that has no components
-
checkPermittedContents
public void checkPermittedContents(SchemaType parentType, StaticContext env, boolean whole) throws XPathException
Check statically that the results of the expression are capable of constructing the content of a given schema type.- Parameters:
parentType- The schema typeenv- the static contextwhole- true if this atomic value accounts for the entire content of the containing node- Throws:
XPathException- if the expression doesn't match the required content type

XPathException- if it can't be handled in Saxon-JS
-
asAtomic
public AtomicValue asAtomic()
Calling this method on a ConversionResult returns the AtomicValue that results from the conversion if the conversion was successful, and throws a ValidationException explaining the conversion error otherwise.Use this method if you are calling a conversion method that returns a ConversionResult, and if you want to throw an exception if the conversion fails.
- Specified by:
asAtomicin interfaceConversionResult- Returns:
- the atomic value that results from the conversion if the conversion was successful
-
toString
public java.lang.String toString()
