Method Detail

getManagedType

IManagedType getManagedType(StateObject stateObject)

Returns the IManagedType for the given identification variable. The search does not traverse up the query hierarchy if this declaration is for a subquery.

SELECT e FROM Department d JOIN KEY(d.employees).addresses a

In the above query, the managed type associated with the identification variable:

• d is "Department"
• a is "Address"

Parameters:

stateObject - The StateObject that should be an simple identification variable or an encapsulated identification variable with the identifier KEY or VALUE

Returns:

The IManagedType representing the domain object declared by the given identification variable

identificationVariables

IterableListIterator<IdentificationVariableStateObject> identificationVariables()

Returns the IdentificationVariableStateObject that are used by this state object. It is possible more than one declaration exists, like a range variable declaration has also joins and join fetches.

Returns:

The list of IdentificationVariableStateObject
