Class GNodeSequenceConverter

java.lang.Object
net.sf.saxon.expr.Expression
net.sf.saxon.expr.UnaryExpression
net.sf.saxon.type.coercion.GNodeSequenceConverter
All Implemented Interfaces:
ExportAgent, Locatable, IdentityComparable, Traceable
public final class GNodeSequenceConverter extends UnaryExpression
A GNodeSequenceConverter implements the implicit conversion of maps and arrays to JNodes required in the 4.0 specification. Note that this is not part of the general coercion rules; it happens only for the context setting expression of an axis expression where the node-test is not confined to selecting XNodes.

      public GNodeSequenceConverter(Expression sequence, Supplier<RoleDiagnostic> roleSupplier)
      Constructor

      Type-check the expression
      Overrides:
      typeCheck in class UnaryExpression
      Parameters:
      visitor - an expression visitor
      contextInfo - Information available statically about the context item: whether it is (possibly) absent; its static type; its streaming posture.
      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, ContextItemStaticInfo contextInfo) throws XPathException
      Perform optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions.

      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 UnaryExpression
      Parameters:
      visitor - an expression visitor
      contextInfo - 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

      XPathException - if an error is discovered during this phase (typically a type error)

      XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

    • convertItem

      public Item convertItem(Item it, XPathContext context) throws XPathException
