Constructor Detail

### IsLastExpression

    public IsLastExpression(boolean condition)

  Construct a condition that tests position() eq last() (if condition is true) or position() ne last() (if condition is false).

Method Detail

### getCondition

    public boolean getCondition()

### simplify

    public Expression simplify(StaticContext env)

  Description copied from class: `ComputedExpression`
  Simplify an expression. This performs any static optimization (by rewriting the expression as a different expression). The default implementation does nothing.

  Specified by:
    `simplify` in interface `Expression`
  Overrides:
    `simplify` in class `ComputedExpression`
  Returns:
    the simplified expression

### analyze

    public Expression analyze(StaticContext env,
                              ItemType contextItemType)

  Description copied from interface: `Expression`
  Perform static analysis and optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions.

  This checks statically that the operands of the expression have the correct type; if necessary it generates code to do run-time type checking or type conversion. A static type error is reported only if execution cannot possibly succeed, that is, if a run-time type error is inevitable. The call may return a modified form of the expression.

  This method is called after all references to functions and variables have been resolved to the declaration of the function or variable. However, the types of such functions and variables may not be accurately known if they have not been explicitly declared.

  Parameters:
    `env` - the static context of the expression
    `contextItemType` - the static type of "." at the point where this expression is invoked. The parameter is set to null if it is known statically that the context item will be undefined. If the type of the context item is not known statically, the argument is set to `Type.ITEM_TYPE`
  Returns:
    the original expression, rewritten to perform necessary run-time type checks, and to perform other type-related optimizations

### computeSpecialProperties

    public int computeSpecialProperties()

  Determine the special properties of this expression

  Overrides:
    `computeSpecialProperties` in class `ComputedExpression`
  Returns:
    `StaticProperty.NON_CREATIVE`.

### evaluateItem

    public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext c)
                      throws XPathException

  Description copied from class: `ComputedExpression`
  Evaluate an expression as a single item. This always returns either a single Item or null (denoting the empty sequence). No conversion is done. This method should not be used unless the static type of the expression is a subtype of "item" or "item?": that is, it should not be called if the expression may return a sequence. There is no guarantee that this condition will be detected.

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

### getItemType

    public ItemType getItemType()

  Determine the data type of the expression

  Returns:
    Type.BOOLEAN

### computeCardinality

    public int computeCardinality()

  Determine the static cardinality

  Specified by:
    `computeCardinality` in class `ComputedExpression`

### getIntrinsicDependencies

    public int getIntrinsicDependencies()

  Get the dependencies of this expression on the context

  Overrides:
    `getIntrinsicDependencies` in class `ComputedExpression`
  Returns:
    a set of bit-significant flags identifying the "intrinsic" dependencies. The flags are documented in class net.sf.saxon.value.StaticProperty

### display

    public void display(int level,
                        NamePool pool,
                        java.io.PrintStream out)

  Diagnostic print of expression structure

  Parameters:
    `level` - indentation level for this expression
    `pool` - NamePool used to expand any names appearing in the expression
    `out` - Output destination
