public class RangeExpression extends BinaryExpression
A RangeExpression is an expression that represents an integer sequence as a pair of end-points (for example "x to y"). If the end-points are equal, the sequence is of length one.From Saxon 7.8, the sequence must be ascending; if the end-point is less than the start-point, an empty sequence is returned. This is to allow expressions of the form "for $i in 1 to count($seq) return ...."

RangeExpression
public RangeExpression(Expression start, int op, Expression end)
Construct a RangeExpression- Parameters:
start
- expression that computes the start of the rangeop
- represents the operator "to", needed only because this class is a subclass of BinaryExpression which needs an operatorend
- expression that computes the end of the range

Method Detail
-
typeCheck
public Expression typeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ItemType contextItemType) throws XPathException
Type-check the expression- Overrides:
typeCheck
in classBinaryExpression
- Parameters:
visitor
- an expression visitorcontextItemType
- 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 toType.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, ItemType contextItemType) 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 classBinaryExpression
- Parameters:
visitor
- an expression visitorcontextItemType
- 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 toType.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)
-
getItemType
public ItemType getItemType(TypeHierarchy th)
Get the data type of the items returned- Specified by:
getItemType
in classExpression
- Parameters:
th
- the type hierarchy cache- Returns:
- a value such as Type.STRING, Type.BOOLEAN, Type.NUMBER, Type.NODE, or Type.ITEM (meaning not known at compile time)
-
computeCardinality
public int computeCardinality()
Determine the static cardinality- Overrides:
computeCardinality
in classBinaryExpression
- 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
-
copy
public Expression copy()
Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.- Specified by:
copy
in classExpression
- Returns:
- the copy of the original expression
-
iterate
public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context) throws XPathException
Return an iteration over the sequence- Specified by:
iterate
in interfaceSequenceIterable
- Overrides:
iterate
in classExpression
- Parameters:
context
- supplies the context for evaluation- Returns:
- a SequenceIterator that can be used to iterate over the result of the expression
- Throws:
XPathException
- if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression
