Class LocalVariable

java.lang.Object

net.sf.saxon.expr.ComputedExpression

net.sf.saxon.instruct.Instruction

net.sf.saxon.instruct.GeneralVariable

net.sf.saxon.instruct.LocalVariable

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, SourceLocator, Binding, Container, Expression, TailCallReturner, InstructionInfoProvider

public class LocalVariable
extends GeneralVariable

Handler for local xsl:variable elements in stylesheet. Not used in XQuery. In fact, the class is used only transiently in XSLT: local variables are compiled first to a LocalVariable object, and subsequently to a LetExpression.

Method Details

processLeavingTail

public TailCall processLeavingTail(XPathContext context)
                            throws XPathException

Process the local variable declaration

Specified by:

processLeavingTail in interface TailCallReturner

Specified by:

processLeavingTail in class Instruction

Parameters:

context - The dynamic context of the transformation, giving access to the current node, the current variables, etc.

Returns:

null if the instruction has completed execution; or a TailCall indicating a function call or template call that is delegated to the caller, to be made after the stack has been unwound so as to save stack space.

Throws:

XPathException

evaluateVariable

public ValueRepresentation evaluateVariable(XPathContext c)
                                     throws XPathException

Evaluate the variable

Throws:

XPathException
