## org.apache.xalan.extensions
Class ExpressionVisitor

    java.lang.Object
      |

            +--org.apache.xalan.extensions.ExpressionVisitor

public class ExpressionVisitor
extends XPathVisitor

When `org.apache.xalan.templates.StylesheetHandler` creates an `XPath`, the ExpressionVisitor visits the XPath expression. For any extension functions it encounters, it instructs StylesheetRoot to register the extension namespace. This mechanism is required to locate extension functions that may be embedded within an expression.

Constructor Summary
`ExpressionVisitor(StylesheetRoot sroot)` The constructor sets the StylesheetRoot variable which is used to register extension namespaces.

Method Summary
`boolean` | `visitFunction(ExpressionOwner owner, Function func)` If the function is an extension function, register the namespace.

Methods inherited from class org.apache.xpath.XPathVisitor

Methods inherited from class java.lang.Object
