Constructor Detail

EntityTypeLiteralback to summary
public EntityTypeLiteral(AbstractExpression parent, String entityTypeName)

Creates a new EntityTypeLiteral.

Parameters
parent:AbstractExpression

The parent of this expression

entityTypeName:String

The name of the entity

Method Detail

acceptback to summary
public void accept(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

Implements org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.Expression.accept.

Doc from org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.Expression.accept.

Visits this Expression by the given visitor.

Parameters
visitor:ExpressionVisitor

The ExpressionVisitor to visit this object

acceptChildrenback to summary
public void acceptChildren(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

Implements org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.Expression.acceptChildren.

Doc from org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.Expression.acceptChildren.

Visits the children of this Expression. This method can be used to optimize traversing the children since a new list is not created every time children() is called.

This does not traverse the Expression sub-hierarchy, use a subclass of AbstractTraverseChildrenVisitor in order to traverse the entire sub-hierarchy.

Parameters
visitor:ExpressionVisitor

The visitor to visit the children of this object.

protected void addOrderedChildrenTo(List<Expression> children)

Overrides org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.AbstractExpression.addOrderedChildrenTo.

Doc from org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.AbstractExpression.addOrderedChildrenTo.

Adds the children of this AbstractExpression to the given list.

Parameters
children:List<Expression>

The list used to store the string representation of this AbstractExpression

Annotations

getEntityTypeNameback to summary
public String getEntityTypeName()

Returns the name of the entity type.

Returns:String

The name of the entity that was parsed

public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()

Implements org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.Expression.getQueryBNF.

Doc from org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.Expression.getQueryBNF.

Returns the BNF of this Expression.

Returns:JPQLQueryBNF

The JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of this Expression

protected void parse(WordParser wordParser, boolean tolerant)

Implements abstract org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.AbstractExpression.parse.

Doc from org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.AbstractExpression.parse.

Parses the query by starting at the current position, which is part of the given WordParser.

Parameters
wordParser:WordParser

The text to parse based on the current position of the cursor

tolerant:boolean

Determines whether the parsing system should be tolerant, meaning if it should try to parse invalid or incomplete queries

Implements org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.Expression.toParsedText.

Doc from org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.Expression.toParsedText.

Returns a string representation of this Expression and its children. The expression should contain whitespace even if the beautified version would not have any. For instance, "SELECT e " should be returned where Expression#toActualText() would return "SELECT e".

Returns:String

The string representation of this Expression

Generates a string representation of this Expression, including its children, if it has any.

Parameters
