Interface BindingReference

Known Implementing Classes:
Assign, LocalVariableReference, VariableReference

public interface BindingReference

BindingReference is a interface used to mark references to a variable declaration. The main implementation is VariableReference, which represents a reference to a variable in an XPath expression, but it is also used to represent a reference to a variable in a saxon:assign instruction.

Method Summary

void
fixup(Binding binding)
Fix up this binding reference to a binding
void
setStaticType(SequenceType type, Value constantValue, int properties)
Fix up the static type of this variable reference; optionally, supply a constant value for the variable.

Method Details

fixup

public void fixup(Binding binding)
Fix up this binding reference to a binding

setStaticType

public void setStaticType(SequenceType type,
                          Value constantValue,
                          int properties)
Fix up the static type of this variable reference; optionally, supply a constant value for the variable. Also supplies other static properties of the expression to which the variable is bound, for example whether it is an ordered node-set.
