Class WhereClause

java.lang.Object
  org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.AbstractExpression
      org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.AbstractConditionalClause
          org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.WhereClause

All Implemented Interfaces:

Expression

public final class WhereClause
extends AbstractConditionalClause

The WHERE clause of a query consists of a conditional expression used to select objects or values that satisfy the expression. The WHERE clause restricts the result of a select statement or the scope of an update or delete operation.

BNF: where_clause ::= WHERE conditional_expression

Method Detail

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 AbstractConditionalClause

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

accept

public void accept(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

Visits this Expression by the given visitor.

Parameters:

visitor - The ExpressionVisitor to visit this object

getQueryBNF

public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()

Returns the BNF of this Expression.

Returns:

The JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of this Expression
