public final class TableExpression
extends AbstractSingleEncapsulatedExpression

Defines a table expression. This allow a non-mapped table to be used in a query. This is not part of the JPA functional specification but is EclipseLink specific support.

BNF: table_expression ::= TABLE(string_literal)
