      • init

        public void init​(Expression select,
                         StructuredQName qName)
        Initialize the properties of the variable
        Parameters:
        select - the expression to which the variable is bound

      • setContainer

        public void setContainer​(Container container)
        Mark a variable as being in a given Container. This link is used primarily for diagnostics: the container links to the location map held in the executable.

        This affects the expression and all its subexpressions. Any subexpressions that are not in the same container are marked with the new container, and this proceeds recursively. However, any subexpression that is already in the correct container is not modified.

        Parameters:
        container - The container of this expression.
      • getContainer

        public Container getContainer()
        Get the container in which this expression is located. This will usually be a top-level construct such as a function or global variable, and XSLT template, or an XQueryExpression. In the case of free-standing XPath expressions it will be the StaticContext object
        Returns:
        the expression's container
