Field Detail

EMPTY

public static final Seq EMPTY

Empty sequence.

val

public Item[] val

Item array.

Method Detail

get

public static Item get(Item[] v,
                       int s)

Constructor.

Parameters:

v - value

s - size

Returns:

resulting item or sequence

i

public final boolean i()

Description copied from class: Expr

Checks if this is an item.

Overrides:

i in class Item

Returns:

result of check

size

public final long size(QueryContext ctx)

Description copied from class: Expr

Returns the sequence size or 1.

Overrides:

size in class Item

Parameters:

ctx - query context

Returns:

result of check

java

public Object java()

Description copied from class: Item

Returns a Java object.

Overrides:

java in class Item

Returns:

string representation

iter

public Iter iter()

Description copied from class: Item

Returns an item iterator.

Overrides:

iter in class Item

Returns:

iterator

atomic

public Item atomic(QueryContext ctx)
            throws QueryException

Description copied from class: Expr

Evaluates the expression and returns the resulting item or a null reference. If this method is not overwritten, Expr.iter(org.basex.query.QueryContext) must be implemented.

Overrides:

atomic in class Item

Parameters:

ctx - query context

Returns:

iterator

Throws:

QueryException - query exception

ebv

public Item ebv(QueryContext ctx)
         throws QueryException

Description copied from class: Expr

Checks if the iterator can be dissolved into an effective boolean value. If not, returns an error. If yes, returns the first value - which can be also be e.g. an integer, which is later evaluated as position predicate.

Overrides:

ebv in class Item

Parameters:

ctx - query context

Returns:

item

Throws:

QueryException - query exception

test

public Item test(QueryContext ctx)
          throws QueryException

Description copied from class: Expr

Performs a predicate test and returns the item if test was successful.

Overrides:

test in class Item

Parameters:

ctx - query context

Returns:

item

Throws:

QueryException - query exception

eq

public final boolean eq(Item it)
                 throws QueryException

Description copied from class: Item

Checks the items for equality.

Specified by:

eq in class Item

Parameters:

it - item to be compared

Returns:

result of check

Throws:

QueryException - query exception

diff

public final int diff(Item it)

Description copied from class: Item

Returns the difference between the current and the specified item.

Overrides:

diff in class Item

Parameters:

it - item to be compared

Returns:

difference

serialize

public final void serialize(Serializer ser)
                     throws IOException

Description copied from class: Item

Serializes the item.

Overrides:

serialize in class Item

Parameters:

ser - serializer

Throws:

IOException - I/O exception

returned

public final Return returned(QueryContext ctx)

Description copied from class: Expr

Indicates the return type of an expression. Called by the compiler to check if expressions can be reformulated. null is returned by default.

Overrides:

returned in class Item

Parameters:

ctx - query context

Returns:

result of check

duplicates

public final boolean duplicates(QueryContext ctx)

Description copied from class: Expr

Returns true if the expression might yield duplicates and unsorted results.

Overrides:

duplicates in class Item

Parameters:

ctx - query context

Returns:

result of check

plan

public final void plan(Serializer ser)
                throws IOException

Description copied from class: ExprInfo

Recursively sends the abstract syntax of this expression to the specified serializer.

Overrides:

plan in class Item

Parameters:

ser - serializer

Throws:

IOException - I/O exception

toString

public final String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Item
