Constructor Detail

DeleteStatement

public DeleteStatement(AbstractExpression parent)

Creates a new DeleteStatement.

Parameters:

parent - The parent of this expression

Method Detail

accept

public void accept(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

Visits this Expression by the given visitor.

Parameters:

visitor - The ExpressionVisitor to visit this object

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 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

addDeleteClause

public DeleteClause addDeleteClause()

Manually adds the delete clause to this delete statement.

addOrderedChildrenTo

protected 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

findQueryBNF

public 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

getDeleteClause

public DeleteClause getDeleteClause()

Returns the Expression representing the DELETE clause.

Returns:

The expression that was parsed representing the DELETE expression

getQueryBNF

public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()

Returns the BNF of this Expression.

Returns:

The JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of this Expression

getWhereClause

public Expression getWhereClause()

Returns the Expression representing the WHERE clause.

Returns:

The expression representing the WHERE clause

hasSpaceAfterDeleteClause

public boolean hasSpaceAfterDeleteClause()

Determines whether a whitespace was found after the DELETE FROM clause. In some cases, the space is owned by a child of the DELETE FROM clause.

Returns:

true if there was a whitespace after the DELETE FROM clause and owned by this expression; false otherwise

hasWhereClause

public boolean hasWhereClause()

Determines whether the WHERE clause is defined.

Returns:

true if the query that got parsed had the WHERE clause

parse

protected 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

toParsedText

protected 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
