setArg

public void setArg(Expression arg,
                   int argNum)
            throws WrongNumberArgsException
Set an argument expression for a function. This method is called by the XPath compiler.
Parameters:
arg - non-null expression that represents the argument.
argNum - The argument number index.
Throws:
WrongNumberArgsException - If a derived class determines that the number of arguments is incorrect.
Overrides:
setArg in class Function3Args

checkNumberArgs

public void checkNumberArgs(int argNum)
                     throws WrongNumberArgsException
Check that the number of arguments passed to this function is correct.
Parameters:
argNum - The number of arguments that is being passed to the function.
Throws:
WrongNumberArgsException -  
Overrides:
checkNumberArgs in class Function3Args

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 Function3Args
