Constructor Detail

CoreOperation

public CoreOperation(Expression[] args)

Create a new CoreOperation.

Parameters:

args - Expression[]

Method Detail

compute

public java.lang.Object compute(EvalContext context)

Description copied from class: Expression

Evaluates the expression. If the result is a node set, returns the first element of the node set.

Specified by:

compute in class Expression

Parameters:

context - evaluation context

Returns:

Object

computeValue

public abstract java.lang.Object computeValue(EvalContext context)

Description copied from class: Expression

Evaluates the expression. If the result is a node set, returns the first element of the node set.

Specified by:

computeValue in class Expression

Parameters:

context - evaluation context

Returns:

Object

getSymbol

public abstract java.lang.String getSymbol()

Returns the XPath symbol for this operation, e.g. "+", "div", etc.

Returns:

String symbol

isSymmetric

protected abstract boolean isSymmetric()

Returns true if the operation is not sensitive to the order of arguments, e.g. "=", "and" etc, and false if it is, e.g. "<=", "div".

Returns:

boolean

getPrecedence

protected abstract int getPrecedence()

Computes the precedence of the operation.

Returns:

int precedence

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

parenthesize

private java.lang.String parenthesize(Expression expression,
                                      boolean left)

Wrap an expression in parens if necessary.

Parameters:

expression - other Expression

left - whether expression is left of this one.

Returns:

String
