public KeywordExpression(AbstractExpression parent, String identifier)

Creates a new KeywordExpression.

Parameters
parent:AbstractExpression

The parent of this expression

identifier:String

The identifier represented by this expression

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.

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
