All Implemented Interfaces:

Callable, ExportAgent, Locatable, IdentityComparable

public class GeneralComparison10
extends BinaryExpression
implements Callable

GeneralComparison10: a boolean expression that compares two expressions for equals, not-equals, greater-than or less-than. This implements the operators =, !=, <, >, etc. This version of the class implements general comparisons in XPath 1.0 backwards compatibility mode.

Constructor Detail

GeneralComparison10

public GeneralComparison10(Expression p0,
                           int op,
                           Expression p1)

Create a general comparison identifying the two operands and the operator

Parameters:

p0 - the left-hand operand

op - the operator, as a token returned by the Tokenizer (e.g. Token.LT)

p1 - the right-hand operand

Method Detail

computeCardinality

public int computeCardinality()

Determine the static cardinality. Returns [1..1]

Overrides:

computeCardinality in class BinaryExpression

Returns:

the computed cardinality, as one of the values StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ZERO_OR_ONE, StaticProperty.EXACTLY_ONE, StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ONE_OR_MORE, StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ZERO_OR_MORE. May also return StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ZERO if the result is known to be an empty sequence, or StaticProperty.ALLOWS_MANY if if is known to return a sequence of length two or more.

typeCheck

public Expression typeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                            ContextItemStaticInfo contextInfo)
                     throws XPathException

Type-check the expression

Overrides:

typeCheck in class BinaryExpression

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 checked expression

Throws:

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

setAtomicComparer

public void setAtomicComparer(AtomicComparer comparer)

optimize

public Expression optimize(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                           ContextItemStaticInfo contextInfo)
                    throws XPathException

Optimize the expression

Overrides:

optimize in class BinaryExpression

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 checked expression

Throws:

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

evaluateItem

public BooleanValue evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                          throws XPathException

Evaluate the expression in a given context

Overrides:

evaluateItem in class Expression

Parameters:

context - the given context for evaluation

Returns:

a BooleanValue representing the result of the numeric comparison of the two operands

Throws:

XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

call

public BooleanValue call(XPathContext context,
                         Sequence[] arguments)
                  throws XPathException

Evaluate the expression: interface for use by compiled bytecode

Specified by:

call in interface Callable

Parameters:

context - the dynamic evaluation context

arguments - the values of the arguments, supplied as SequenceIterators

Returns:

the result of the evaluation, in the form of a SequenceIterator

Throws:

XPathException - if a dynamic error occurs during the evaluation of the expression

effectiveBooleanValue

public boolean effectiveBooleanValue(XPathContext context)
                              throws XPathException

Evaluate the expression giving a boolean result

Overrides:

effectiveBooleanValue in class Expression

Parameters:

context - the given context for evaluation

Returns:

a boolean representing the result of the comparison of the two operands

Throws:

XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

copy

public Expression copy(RebindingMap rebindings)

Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.

Specified by:

copy in class Expression

Parameters:

rebindings -

Returns:

the copy of the original expression

getItemType

public ItemType getItemType()

Determine the data type of the expression

Specified by:

getItemType in class Expression

Returns:

Type.BOOLEAN

explainExtraAttributes

protected void explainExtraAttributes(ExpressionPresenter out)

Description copied from class: BinaryExpression

Add subclass-specific attributes to the expression tree explanation. Default implementation does nothing; this is provided for subclasses to override.

Overrides:

explainExtraAttributes in class BinaryExpression

Parameters:

out - the output destination for the displayed expression tree

tag

public String tag()

Description copied from class: BinaryExpression

Get the element name used to identify this expression in exported expression format

Overrides:

tag in class BinaryExpression

Returns:

the element name used to identify this expression
