Constructor Detail

### FormatNumber

    public FormatNumber()

Method Detail

### checkArguments

    public void checkArguments(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                        throws XPathException

  Description copied from class: `SystemFunction`
  Method called during static type checking

  Overrides:
    `checkArguments` in class `SystemFunction`
  Parameters:
    `visitor` - the expression visitor
  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### preEvaluate

    public Expression preEvaluate(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
                           throws XPathException

  preEvaluate: this method suppresses compile-time evaluation by doing nothing. We can't evaluate early because we don't have access to the DecimalFormatManager.

  Overrides:
    `preEvaluate` in class `FunctionCall`
  Parameters:
    `visitor` - the expression visitor
  Returns:
    the result of the early evaluation, or the original expression, or potentially a simplified expression
  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### copy

    public Expression copy()

  Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.

  Overrides:
    `copy` in class `SystemFunction`
  Returns:
    the copy of the original expression

### evaluateAsString

    public CharSequence evaluateAsString(XPathContext context)
                                  throws XPathException

  Evaluate in a context where a string is wanted

  Overrides:
    `evaluateAsString` in class `Expression`
  Parameters:
    `context` - The context in which the expression is to be evaluated
  Returns:
    the value of the expression, evaluated in the current context. The expression must return a string or (); if the value of the expression is (), this method returns "".
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

### evaluateItem

    public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext c)
                      throws XPathException

  Evaluate in a general context

  Specified by:
    `evaluateItem` in interface `EvaluableItem`
  Overrides:
    `evaluateItem` in class `Expression`
  Parameters:
    `c` - The context in which the expression is to be evaluated
  Returns:
    the node or atomic value that results from evaluating the expression; or null to indicate that the result is an empty sequence
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

### adjustToDecimal

    public static BigDecimal adjustToDecimal(double value,
                                             int precision)

  Convert a double to a BigDecimal. In general there will be several BigDecimal values that are equal to the supplied value, and the one we want to choose is the one with fewest non-zero digits. The algorithm used is rather pragmatic: look for a string of zeroes or nines, try rounding the number down or up as approriate, then convert the adjusted value to a double to see if it's equal to the original: if not, use the original value unchanged.

  Parameters:
    `value` - the double to be converted
    `precision` - 2 for a double, 1 for a float
  Returns:
    the result of conversion to a double
