        Description copied from interface: Predicate
        Change the expression used by this predicate.
        Specified by:
        setExpr in interface Predicate
        Parameters:
        expr - the new expression
      • getText

        public java.lang.String getText()
        Description copied from interface: Predicate
        Returns the string form of the predicate, including the square brackets.
        Specified by:
        getText in interface Predicate
        Returns:

      • evaluate

        public java.lang.Object evaluate​(Context context)
                                  throws JaxenException
        Description copied from interface: Predicate
        Evaluates this predicate's expression and returns the result. The result will be a java.lang.Double for expressions that return a number, a java.lang.String for expressions that return a string, a java.lang.Boolean for expressions that return a boolean, and a java.util.List for expressions that return a node-set. In the latter case, the elements of the list are the actual objects from the source document model. Copies are not made.
        Specified by:
        evaluate in interface Predicate
        Parameters:
        context - the context in which the expression is evaluated
        Returns:
        an object representing the result of the evaluation
        Throws:
        JaxenException
