Class ExpressionRegistry

java.lang.Object
  org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.ExpressionRegistry

public class ExpressionRegistry
extends java.lang.Object

This registry contains the necessary information used by Hermes parser. When parsing a JPQL query, the JPQLGrammar given to JPQLExpression will give access to this registry.

Provisional API: This interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.

addIdentifier

public void addIdentifier(java.lang.String expressionFactoryId,
                          java.lang.String identifier)

Adds the given JPQL identifier to this factory.

Parameters:

expressionFactoryId - The unique identifier of the ExpressionFactory to add more JPQL identifiers

identifier - The JPQL identifier this factory will parse

addIdentifiers

public void addIdentifiers(java.lang.String expressionFactoryId,
                           java.lang.String... identifiers)

Adds the given JPQL identifiers to this factory.

Parameters:

expressionFactoryId - The unique identifier of the ExpressionFactory to add more JPQL identifiers

identifiers - The JPQL identifiers this factory will parse

expressionFactoryForIdentifier

public ExpressionFactory expressionFactoryForIdentifier(java.lang.String identifier)

Retrieves the ExpressionFactory that is responsible for creating the Expression object that represents the given JPQL identifier.

Parameters:

identifier - The JPQL identifier for which its factory is searched

Returns:

Either the ExpressionFactory that creates the Expression or null if none was found

getExpressionFactory

public ExpressionFactory getExpressionFactory(java.lang.String expressionFactoryId)

Retrieves the registered ExpressionFactory that was registered for the given unique identifier.

Parameters:

expressionFactoryId - The unique identifier of the ExpressionFactory to retrieve

Returns:

The ExpressionFactory mapped with the given unique identifier

getIdentifierRole

public IdentifierRole getIdentifierRole(java.lang.String identifier)

Retrieves the IdentifierRole of the given JPQL identifier. A role helps to describe the purpose of the identifier in a JPQL query.

Parameters:

identifier - The JPQL identifier for which its role is returned

Returns:

The IdentifierRole of the given JPQL identifier

getIdentifiers

public java.util.Set<java.lang.String> getIdentifiers()

Returns the JPQL identifiers that are supported by the JPQL grammar.

getIdentifiers

public java.lang.Iterable<java.lang.String> getIdentifiers(java.lang.String queryBNFId)

Retrieves the JPQL identifiers that are supported by the BNF rule with the given unique identifier. The JPQL identifiers are retrieved by scanning the ExpressionFactory registered with the BNF rule and its child BNF rules.

Returns:
