  Set the executable used for this query expression

  Parameters:
    `exec` - the executable

### setDisableCycleChecks

    public void setDisableCycleChecks(boolean disable)

  Disable checks for certain kinds of cycle. This is equivalent to

  `declare option saxon:allow-cycles "true"`

  Parameters:
    `disable` - true if checks for import cycles are to be suppressed, that is, if cycles should be allowed

### parseLibraryModule

    public final void parseLibraryModule(java.lang.String queryString,
                                         QueryModule env)

  Parse a library module. Prolog? Expression

  Parameters:
    `queryString` - The text of the library module.
    `env` - The static context. The result of parsing a library module is that the static context is populated with a set of function declarations and variable declarations. Each library module must have its own static context objext.
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if the expression contains a syntax error

### grumble

    protected void grumble(java.lang.String message,
                           java.lang.String errorCode)

  Report a static error

  Overrides:
    `grumble` in class `ExpressionParser`
  Parameters:
    `message` - the error message
    `errorCode` - the error code
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - always thrown: an exception containing the supplied message

  On entry, the "define function" has already been recognized

  Throws:
    `XPathException` - if a syntax error is found

### parseUpdatingFunctionDeclaration

    protected void parseUpdatingFunctionDeclaration()
                                             throws XPathException

  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### setDefaultValue

    public Expression setDefaultValue(java.lang.String exp)

  Parse the expression (inside a string literal) used to define default values for external variables. This requires instantiating a nested XPath parser.

  Parameters:
    `exp` - holds the expression used to define a default value
  Returns:
    the compiled expression that computes the default value

### parseForExpression

    protected Expression parseForExpression()
                                     throws XPathException

  Parse a FLWOR expression. This replaces the XPath "for" expression. Full syntax:

  [41] FLWORExpr ::= (ForClause | LetClause)+ WhereClause? OrderByClause? "return" ExprSingle [42] ForClause ::= <"for" "$"> VarName TypeDeclaration? PositionalVar? "in" ExprSingle ("," "$" VarName TypeDeclaration? PositionalVar? "in" ExprSingle)* [43] PositionalVar ::= "at" "$" VarName [44] LetClause ::= <"let" "$"> VarName TypeDeclaration? ":=" ExprSingle ("," "$" VarName TypeDeclaration? ":=" ExprSingle)* [45] WhereClause ::= "where" Expr [46] OrderByClause ::= (<"order" "by"> | <"stable" "order" "by">) OrderSpecList [47] OrderSpecList ::= OrderSpec ("," OrderSpec)* [48] OrderSpec ::= ExprSingle OrderModifier [49] OrderModifier ::= ("ascending" | "descending")? (<"empty" "greatest"> | <"empty" "least">)? ("collation" StringLiteral)?

  Overrides:

                                            StaticContext env)

  Make a string-join expression that concatenates the string-values of items in a sequence with intervening spaces. This may be simplified later as a result of type-checking.

  Parameters:
    `exp` - the base expression, evaluating to a sequence
    `env` - the static context
  Returns:
    a call on string-join to create a string containing the representations of the items in the sequence separated by spaces.

    protected Expression parseTypeswitchExpression()
                                            throws XPathException

  Parse a Typeswitch Expression. This construct is XQuery-only. TypeswitchExpr ::= "typeswitch" "(" Expr ")" CaseClause+ "default" ("$" VarName)? "return" ExprSingle CaseClause ::= "case" ("$" VarName "as")? SequenceType "return" ExprSingle

  Overrides:
    `parseTypeswitchExpression` in class `ExpressionParser`
  Returns:
    the expression that results from the parsing
  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### parseValidateExpression

    protected Expression parseValidateExpression()
                                          throws XPathException

  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### parseExtensionExpression

    protected Expression parseExtensionExpression()
                                           throws XPathException

  Parse an Extension Expression. Syntax: "(#" QName arbitrary-text "#)")+ "{" expr? "}"

  Overrides:
    `parseExtensionExpression` in class `ExpressionParser`
  Returns:
    the parsed expression; except that this version of the method always throws an exception
  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### parseConstructor

    protected Expression parseConstructor()
                                   throws XPathException

  Parse a node constructor. This is allowed only in XQuery. This method handles both the XML-like "direct" constructors, and the XQuery-based "computed" constructors.

  Overrides:
    `parseConstructor` in class `ExpressionParser`
  Returns:
    an Expression for evaluating the parsed constructor
  Throws:
    `XPathException` - in the event of a syntax error.

### makeStringLiteral

    protected Literal makeStringLiteral(java.lang.String token)
                                 throws XPathException

  Method to make a string literal from a token identified as a string literal. This is trivial in XPath, but in XQuery the method is overridden to identify pseudo-XML character and entity references

  Overrides:
    `makeStringLiteral` in class `ExpressionParser`
  Parameters:
    `token` - the string as written (or as returned by the tokenizer)
  Returns:
    The string value of the string literal, after dereferencing entity and character references
  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### getLanguage

    protected java.lang.String getLanguage()

  Get the current language (XPath or XQuery)

  Overrides:
    `getLanguage` in class `ExpressionParser`
  Returns:
    a string representation of the language being parsed, for use in error messages
