public abstract class AbstractFromClause
extends AbstractExpression

The FROM clause of a query defines the domain of the query by declaring identification variables. An identification variable is an identifier declared in the FROM clause of a query. The domain of the query may be constrained by path expressions. Identification variables designate instances of a particular entity abstract schema type. The FROM clause can contain multiple identification variable declarations separated by a comma (,).

Constructor Detail

AbstractFromClause

protected AbstractFromClause(AbstractExpression parent)

Creates a new AbstractFromClause.

Parameters:

parent - The parent of this expression

Method Detail

acceptChildren

public void acceptChildren(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

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 Expression.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 - The visitor to visit the children of this object.

addChildrenTo

protected final void addChildrenTo(java.util.Collection<Expression> children)

Adds the children of this AbstractExpression to the given collection.

Overrides:

addChildrenTo in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

children - The collection used to store the children

addOrderedChildrenTo

protected final void addOrderedChildrenTo(java.util.List<Expression> children)

Adds the children of this AbstractExpression to the given list.

Overrides:

addOrderedChildrenTo in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

children - The list used to store the string representation of this AbstractExpression

buildCollectionExpression

public final CollectionExpression buildCollectionExpression()

Creates a new CollectionExpression that will wrap the single declaration.

Returns:

The single declaration represented by a temporary collection

declarationBNF

public abstract java.lang.String declarationBNF()

Returns the BNF of the declaration part of this clause.

Returns:

The BNF of the declaration part of this clause

findQueryBNF

public final JPQLQueryBNF findQueryBNF(Expression expression)

Retrieves the JPQLQueryBNF that represents the fragment of this Expression that was used when parsing the given Expression.

Specified by:

findQueryBNF in interface Expression

Overrides:

findQueryBNF in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

expression - The Expression that is a descendant of this one

Returns:

The JPQLQueryBNF that was used to parse the given expression

getActualIdentifier

public final java.lang.String getActualIdentifier()

Returns the actual FROM identifier found in the string representation of the JPQL query, which has the actual case that was used.

Returns:

The FROM identifier that was actually parsed

getDeclaration

public final Expression getDeclaration()

Returns the Expression that represents the declaration of this clause.

Returns:

The expression that was parsed representing the declaration

hasDeclaration

public final boolean hasDeclaration()

Determines whether the declaration of this clause was parsed.

Returns:

true if the declaration of this clause was parsed; false if it was not parsed

hasSpaceAfterFrom

public final boolean hasSpaceAfterFrom()

Determines whether a whitespace was parsed after the FROM identifier.

Returns:

true if a whitespace was parsed after the FROM identifier; false otherwise

isParsingComplete

protected boolean isParsingComplete(WordParser wordParser,
                                    java.lang.String word,
                                    Expression expression)

Determines whether the parsing is complete based on what is left in the given text. The text is never empty.

Overrides:

isParsingComplete in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

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

word - The word that was retrieved from the given text, which is the first word in the text

expression - The Expression that has already been parsed

Returns:

true if the text no longer can't be parsed by the current expression; false if more can be parsed

parse

protected final void parse(WordParser wordParser,
                           boolean tolerant)

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

Specified by:

parse in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

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

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

shouldParseWithFactoryFirst

protected boolean shouldParseWithFactoryFirst()

Determines whether the parsing of the query should be performed using the factories first or it should automatically fallback to the fallback factory.

Overrides:

shouldParseWithFactoryFirst in class AbstractExpression

Returns:

true is returned by default so the factories are used before falling back

toParsedText

protected final void toParsedText(java.lang.StringBuilder writer,
                                  boolean actual)

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

Specified by:

toParsedText in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

writer - The buffer used to append this Expression's string representation

actual - Determines whether the string representation should represent what was parsed, i.e. include any "virtual" whitespace (such as ending whitespace) and the actual case of the JPQL identifiers
