Selector
that, when evaluated
, yields each
Item
in interpreter
such that evaluating
predicate
against this Item
would select at least one defined result. This is
fundamentally different from returning the result itself; for
example,
FilterSelector(predicate=GetSelector(key="a")).evaluate(Record(Slot("a",5))
yields the Record
itself, NOT just 5
.
To accomplish this, FilterSelector
itself implements Selectee<Item>.selected
by always returning Extant
which, crucially, is never null. forSelected
still takes the form "if (condition) then subselect"; here,
"condition" is true only if predicate.forSelected(interpreter,this)
is not null. Thus, the responsibility to ensure that this.selected
is invoked only if predicate
would select something in
Interpreter
is in predicate.forSelected
--exactly as it should be.

Description copied from class:Selector
Returns theSelector
that thisSelector
uses to match sub-selections. -
forSelected
Description copied from class:Selector
Evaluatescallback.selected
against theItems
that match thisSelector's
selection criteria. That is, it pushes suchItems
tointerpreter
, then invokescallback
against it. To support chainedSelectors
, this is a recursive procedure that invokesforSelected
throughthis.then
wherever it exists (which it always does outside ofIdentitySelector
); we define "subselection" to be such an invocation.- Specified by:
forSelected

- the result of executing
callback
from the context of the lastSelector

Always returnsExtant

andThen
Description copied from class:Selector
The means to chainSelectors
. By intention, this is NOT a strict functional composition: for twoSelectors
s1
ands2
,s1.andThen(s2)
DOES NOT NECESSARILY return a newSelector
s3
such thats3.evaluate(args)
is equivalent tos2.evaluate(s1.evaluate(args))
.The reason for this is that for
Selectors
likeChildrenSelector
that yield (logical) collections, we wish to invoke the nextSelector
, say aGetSelector
, against every result. Under strict functional rules,ChildrenSelector.andThen(someGetSelector).evaluate(args)
would instead return at most one defined value regardless of the number of children. -
