Constructor Detail

UnknownExpression

public UnknownExpression(AbstractExpression parent,
                         java.lang.String text)
Creates a new UnknownExpression.

Parameters:
parent - The parent of this expression
text - The text to be stored in 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.

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

getQueryBNF

public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()
Returns the BNF of this Expression.

Returns:
The JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of this Expression

getText

public java.lang.String getText()
Returns the encapsulated text of this AbstractExpression, which can be used in various ways, it can be a keyword, a literal, etc.

Overrides:
getText in class AbstractExpression
Returns:
The full text of this expression or a keyword, or only what this expression encapsulates

isUnknown

protected boolean isUnknown()
Determines whether this expression is an unknown Expression or any other subclass.

Overrides:
isUnknown in class AbstractExpression
Returns:
false by default

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

public java.lang.String toParsedText()
Returns a string representation of this Expression and its children. The expression should contain whitespace even if the beautified version would not have any. For instance, "SELECT e " should be returned where Expression.toParsedText() would return "SELECT e".

Specified by:
toParsedText in interface Expression
Overrides:
toParsedText in class AbstractExpression
Returns:
The string representation of this Expression

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
