VariableDeclaration
Generic interface representing a variable declaration in the static context of an XPath expression.
The declaration may be internal or external to the XPath expression itself. An external
VariableDeclaration is identified (perhaps created) by the bindVariable() method in the StaticContext.
public int getNameCode()
Get the fingerprint code that identifies the name of the variable
public String getVariableName()
Get the name of the variable for use in diagnostics - a lexical QName
Method called by a BindingReference to register the variable reference for
subsequent fixup.
This method is called by the XPath parser when
each reference to the variable is encountered. At some time after parsing and before execution of the
expression, the VariableDeclaration is responsible for calling the two methods setStaticType()
and fixup() on each BindingReference that has been registered with it.
