java.io.Serializable, javax.xml.transform.SourceLocator, LocationProvider, SaxonLocator, EvaluableItem, SequenceIterable, InstructionInfo, org.xml.sax.Locatorpublic class RangeExpression extends BinaryExpression
From Saxon 7.8, the sequence must be ascending; if the end-point is less than the start-point, an empty sequence is returned. This is to allow expressions of the form "for $i in 1 to count($seq) return ...."

start - expression that computes the start of the rangeop - represents the operator "to", needed only because this class is a subclass of
BinaryExpression which needs an operatorend - expression that computes the end of the rangepublic Expression typeCheck(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ItemType contextItemType) throws XPathException
typeCheck in class BinaryExpressionvisitor - an expression visitorcontextItemType - the static type of "." at the point where this expression is invoked.
The parameter is set to null if it is known statically that the context item will be undefined.
If the type of the context item is not known statically, the argument is set to
Type.ITEM_TYPEXPathException - if an error is discovered during this phase
(typically a type error)public Expression optimize(ExpressionVisitor visitor, ItemType contextItemType) throws XPathException
This method is called after all references to functions and variables have been resolved to the declaration of the function or variable, and after all type checking has been done.
