Method Detail

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

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.
