public HasPositionalPredChecker()

Method Detail

check

public static boolean check(LocPathIterator path)

Process the LocPathIterator to see if it contains variables or functions that may make it context dependent.

Parameters:

path - LocPathIterator that is assumed to be absolute, but needs checking.

Returns:

true if the path is confirmed to be absolute, false if it may contain context dependencies.

visitFunction

public boolean visitFunction(ExpressionOwner owner,
                             Function func)

Visit a function.

Parameters:

owner - The owner of the expression, to which the expression can be reset if rewriting takes place.

func - The function reference object.

Returns:

true if the sub expressions should be traversed.

Overrides:

visitPredicate

public boolean visitPredicate(ExpressionOwner owner,
                              Expression pred)

Visit a predicate within a location path. Note that there isn't a proper unique component for predicates, and that the expression will be called also for whatever type Expression is.

Parameters:

owner - The owner of the expression, to which the expression can be reset if rewriting takes place.

pred - The predicate object.

Returns:

true if the sub expressions should be traversed.

Overrides:
