public abstract class UnaryOperation
extends Expression

The unary operation base class.

This class is based on an implementation from the Apache XML Project. In future releases the XML parser, XSLT processor, and associated classes will likely be updated to be based on a later version of the Apache implementations. Since Apache does not guarantee backwards compatibility between versions of their software, we cannot guarantee backwards compatibility of any of the classes contained in the weblogic.apache package or sub-packages.

Method Detail

canTraverseOutsideSubtree

public boolean canTraverseOutsideSubtree()
Tell if this expression or it's subexpressions can traverse outside the current subtree.

Returns:
true if traversal outside the context node's subtree can occur.
Overrides:
canTraverseOutsideSubtree in class Expression

setRight

public void setRight(Expression r)
Set the expression operand for the operation.

Parameters:
r - The expression operand to which the unary operation will be applied.

execute

public XObject execute(XPathContext xctxt)
                throws javax.xml.transform.TransformerException
Execute the operand and apply the unary operation to the result.

Parameters:
xctxt - The runtime execution context.
Returns:
An XObject that represents the result of applying the unary operation to the evaluated operand.
Throws:
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException -  
Overrides:
execute in class Expression

operate

public abstract XObject operate(XObject right)
                         throws javax.xml.transform.TransformerException
Apply the operation to two operands, and return the result.

Parameters:
right - non-null reference to the evaluated right operand.
Returns:
non-null reference to the XObject that represents the result of the operation.
Throws:
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException -
