public Interface SqmNegatablePredicate

Known Direct Subinterfaces: org.hibernate.query.sqm.tree.predicate.SqmInPredicate
Known Direct Implementers: org.hibernate.query.sqm.tree.predicate.AbstractNegatableSqmPredicate

Contract for predicates that have a negated form, e.g. x is not null as opposed to not(x is null)

public void negate() Apply an external negation. Called when we encounter a `NOT` grouping. For example, for `not(x is null)` we build the `SqmNullnessPredicate` and then call its negate method which results in `x is not null`. Can be applied nested as well. For example, `not(not(x is null))` becomes `x is null` because the double-negative cancel each other out.

public void negate()

Apply an external negation. Called when we encounter a NOT grouping.

For example, for not(x is null) we build the SqmNullnessPredicate and then call its negate method which results in x is not null.

Can be applied nested as well. For example, not(not(x is null)) becomes x is null because the double-negative cancel each other out.
