    public class ContextCall

extends SimpleExpression

The class ContextCall is an expression which, when evaluated, calls a given FunctionItem supplying the context item as the only argument.

### ContextCall

    public ContextCall(FunctionItem fcf)

Method Detail

### getImplementationMethod

    public int getImplementationMethod()

  Description copied from class: `Expression`
  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 class `Expression`
  Returns:
    the implementation method, for example `Expression.ITERATE_METHOD` or `Expression.EVALUATE_METHOD` or `Expression.PROCESS_METHOD`

### iterate

    public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context)
                             throws XPathException

  Description copied from class: `SimpleExpression`
  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 interface `SequenceIterable`
  Overrides:
    `iterate` in class `SimpleExpression`
  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
