Class Trace

net.sf.saxon.functions.Trace

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, SourceLocator, LocationProvider, SaxonLocator, CallableExpression, InstructionInfo, Locator

public class Trace
extends SystemFunction
implements CallableExpression

This class supports the XPath 2.0 function trace(). The value is traced to the registered output stream (defaulting to System.err), unless a TraceListener is in use, in which case the information is sent to the TraceListener

Method Details

preEvaluate

public Expression preEvaluate(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

preEvaluate: this method suppresses compile-time evaluation by doing nothing

Overrides:

preEvaluate in class FunctionCall

Parameters:

visitor - an expression visitor

Returns:

the result of the early evaluation, or the original expression, or potentially a simplified expression

computeSpecialProperties

public int computeSpecialProperties()

Get the static properties of this expression (other than its type). The result is bit-significant. These properties are used for optimizations. In general, if property bit is set, it is true, but if it is unset, the value is unknown.

Overrides:

computeSpecialProperties in class SystemFunction

Returns:

the special properties, as a bit-significant integer

computeCardinality

public int computeCardinality()

Get the static cardinality

Overrides:

computeCardinality in class SystemFunction

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

evaluateItem

public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                  throws XPathException

Evaluate the function

Overrides:

evaluateItem in class Expression

Parameters:

context - The context in which the expression is to be evaluated

Returns:

the node or atomic value that results from evaluating the expression; or null to indicate that the result is an empty sequence

Throws:

XPathException - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

traceItem

public static void traceItem(Item val,
 String label,
 PrintStream out)

iterate

public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context)
                         throws XPathException

Iterate over the results of the function

Overrides:

iterate in class Expression

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

call

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

Evaluate the expression

Specified by:

call in interface CallableExpression

Parameters:

arguments - the values of the arguments, supplied as SequenceIterators

context - the dynamic evaluation context

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
