Class IndexedLookupExpression

      net.sf.saxon.expr.Expression

    public final class IndexedLookupExpression

extends Expression

An IndexedLookupExpression contains a base expression and a lookup expression. The base expression will always be a local variable reference. The expression returns true if the base expression (after atomization) contains the value of the lookup expression. That is, the expression is equivalent to exists(base[lookup]), except that lookup is evaluated with the same context as base.

  Overrides:
    `typeCheck` in class `Expression`
  Parameters:
    `visitor` - an expression visitor
    `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 expression after type-checking (potentially modified to add run-time checks and/or conversions)

### optimize

    public Expression optimize(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                               ItemType contextItemType)

  Perform optimisation of an expression and its subexpressions.

  This method is called after all references to functions and variables have been resolved to the declaration of the function or variable, and after all type checking has been done.

  Overrides:
    `optimize` in class `Expression`
  Parameters:
    `visitor` - an expression visitor
    `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 if appropriate to optimize execution

### copy

    public Expression copy()

  Copy an expression. This makes a deep copy.

### computeCardinality

    public int computeCardinality()

  Get the static cardinality of this expression

  Specified by:
    `computeCardinality` in class `Expression`

### 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 `Expression`
  Returns:
    the static properties of the expression, as a bit-significant value

### equals

    public boolean equals(Object other)

  Description copied from class: `Expression`
  Get the effective boolean value of the expression. This returns false if the value is the empty sequence, a zero-length string, a number equal to zero, or the boolean false. Otherwise it returns true.

  Overrides:
    `effectiveBooleanValue` in class `Expression`
  Parameters:
    `context` - The context in which the expression is to be evaluated
  Returns:
    the effective boolean value

    public Item evaluateItem(XPathContext context)
                      throws XPathException

  Description copied from class: `Expression`
  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 `EvaluableItem`
  Overrides:
    `evaluateItem` in class `Expression`
  Parameters:
    `context` - The context in which the expression is to be evaluated

  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if any dynamic error occurs evaluating the expression

### computeDependencies

    public int computeDependencies()

  Returns:
    the dependencies

### explain

    public void explain(ExpressionPresenter destination)

  Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.

  Specified by:
