Constructor Detail

### Subsequence

    public Subsequence()

Method Detail

### getItemType

    public ItemType getItemType()

  Determine the data type of the items in the sequence

  Specified by:
    `getItemType` in interface `Expression`
  Overrides:
    `getItemType` in class `SystemFunction`
  Returns:
    the type of the argument

### computeSpecialProperties

    public int computeSpecialProperties()

  Get the static properties of this expression (other than its type). The result is bit-significant. These properties are used for optimizations. In general, if property bit is set, it is true, but if it is unset, the value is unknown.

  Overrides:
    `computeSpecialProperties` in class `SystemFunction`

### iterate

    public SequenceIterator iterate(XPathContext context)
                             throws XPathException

  Evaluate the function to return an iteration of selected nodes.

  Specified by:
    `iterate` in interface `Expression`
  Overrides:
    `iterate` in class `ComputedExpression`
  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
