Constructor Detail

IDPattern

public IDPattern(Expression id)
Create an id pattern.

Parameters: id Either a StringValue or a VariableReference

Method Detail

allocateSlots

public int allocateSlots(StaticContext env, SlotManager slotManager, int nextFree)
Allocate slots to any variables used within the pattern

Parameters: env the static context in the XSLT stylesheet slotManager the slot manager representing the stack frame for local variables nextFree the next slot that is free to be allocated @return the next slot that is free to be allocated

analyze

public Pattern analyze(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ItemType contextItemType)
Type-check the pattern. Default implementation does nothing. This is only needed for patterns that contain variable references or function calls.

Returns: the optimised Pattern

equals

public boolean equals(Object other)
Determine whether this pattern is the same as another pattern

Parameters: other the other object

getDependencies

public int getDependencies()
Get the dependencies of the pattern. The only possible dependency for a pattern is on local variables. This is analyzed in those patterns where local variables may appear.

getNodeKind

public int getNodeKind()
Determine the type of nodes to which this pattern applies.

Returns: Type.ELEMENT

getNodeTest

public NodeTest getNodeTest()
Get a NodeTest that all the nodes matching this pattern must satisfy

hashCode

public int hashCode()
Hashcode supporting equals()

iterateSubExpressions

public Iterator iterateSubExpressions()
Iterate over the subexpressions within this pattern

matches

public boolean matches(NodeInfo e, XPathContext context)
Determine whether this Pattern matches the given Node

Parameters: e The NodeInfo representing the Element or other node to be tested against the Pattern

Returns: true if the node matches the Pattern, false otherwise

promote

public void promote(PromotionOffer offer, Expression parent)
Offer promotion for subexpressions within this pattern. The offer will be accepted if the subexpression is not dependent on the factors (e.g. the context item) identified in the PromotionOffer. By default the offer is not accepted - this is appropriate in the case of simple expressions such as constant values and variable references where promotion would give no performance advantage. This method is always called at compile time.

Unlike the corresponding method on Expression, this method does not return anything: it can make internal changes to the pattern, but cannot return a different pattern. Only certain kinds of promotion are applicable within a pattern: specifically, promotions affecting local variable references within the pattern.

Parameters: offer details of the offer, for example the offer to move expressions that don't depend on the context to an outer level in the containing expression parent

Throws: net.sf.saxon.trans.XPathException if any error is detected

replaceSubExpression

public boolean replaceSubExpression(Expression original, Expression replacement)
Replace a subexpression by a replacement subexpression

Parameters: original the expression to be replaced replacement the new expression to be inserted in its place

Returns: true if the replacement was carried out
