net.sf.saxon.sort.ConditionalSorter
- All Implemented Interfaces:

An expression that sorts an underlying sequence into document order if some condition is true, or that
returns the sequence "as is" (knowing that it doesn't need sorting) if the condition is false.

ConditionalSorter
Create a conditional document sorter- Parameters:
condition
- the conditional expressionsorter
- the sorting expression
-
-
Method Details
-
getCondition
Get the condition under which the nodes need to be sorted- Returns:
- the condition (an expression)
-
getDocumentSorter
Get the document sorter, which sorts the nodes if the condition is true- Returns:
- the document sorter
-
getCardinality
public int getCardinality()Determine the static cardinality of the expression. This establishes how many items there will be in the result of the expression, at compile time (i.e., without actually evaluating the result.- Overrides:
getCardinality
in classExpression
- Returns:
- one of the values Cardinality.ONE_OR_MORE, Cardinality.ZERO_OR_MORE, Cardinality.EXACTLY_ONE, Cardinality.ZERO_OR_ONE, Cardinality.EMPTY. This default implementation returns ZERO_OR_MORE (which effectively gives no information).
-
computeSpecialProperties
protected int computeSpecialProperties()Compute the special properties of this expression. These properties are denoted by a bit-significant integer, possible values are in classStaticProperty
. The "special" properties are properties other than cardinality and dependencies, and most of them relate to properties of node sequences, for example whether the nodes are in document order.- Overrides:
computeSpecialProperties
in classExpression
- Returns:
- the special properties, as a bit-significant integer
-
getImplementationMethod
public int getImplementationMethod()An implementation of Expression must provide at least one of the methods evaluateItem(), iterate(), or process(). This method indicates which of these methods is provided directly. The other methods will always be available indirectly, using an implementation that relies on one of the other methods.- Overrides:
getImplementationMethod
in classExpression
- Returns:
- the implementation method, for example
Expression.ITERATE_METHOD
orExpression.EVALUATE_METHOD
orExpression.PROCESS_METHOD
-
iterateSubExpressions
Get the immediate sub-expressions of this expression. Default implementation returns a zero-length array, appropriate for an expression that has no sub-expressions.- Overrides:
iterateSubExpressions
in classExpression
- Returns:
- an iterator containing the sub-expressions of this expression
-
replaceSubExpression
Replace one subexpression by a replacement subexpression- Overrides:
replaceSubExpression
in classExpression
- Parameters:
original
- the original subexpressionreplacement
- the replacement subexpression- Returns:
- true if the original subexpression is found
-
computeCardinality
protected int computeCardinality()Compute the static cardinality of this expression- Specified by:
computeCardinality
in classExpression
- 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
Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.- Specified by:
copy
in classExpression
- Returns:
- the copy of the original expression
-
explain
Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.- Specified by:
explain
in classExpression
- Parameters:
out
- the expression presenter used to display the structure
-
getItemType
Determine the data type of the expression, if possible. All expression return sequences, in general; this method determines the type of the items within the sequence, assuming that (a) this is known in advance, and (b) it is the same for all items in the sequence.This method should always return a result, though it may be the best approximation that is available at the time.
- 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)
-
promote
Offer promotion for this subexpression. The offer will be accepted if the subexpression is not dependent on the factors (e.g. the context item) identified in the PromotionOffer. By default the offer is not accepted - this is appropriate in the case of simple expressions such as constant values and variable references where promotion would give no performance advantage. This method is always called at compile time.- Overrides:
promote
in classExpression
- Parameters:
offer
- details of the offer, for example the offer to move expressions that don't depend on the context to an outer level in the containing expression- Returns:
- if the offer is not accepted, return this expression unchanged. Otherwise return the result of rewriting the expression to promote this subexpression
- Throws:
XPathException
- if any error is detected
-
iterate
Return an Iterator to iterate over the values of a sequence. The value of every expression can be regarded as a sequence, so this method is supported for all expressions. This default implementation handles iteration for expressions that return singleton values: for non-singleton expressions, the subclass must provide its own implementation.- 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
-
