Class CollectionMemberDeclaration

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Expression

    public final class CollectionMemberDeclaration
    extends AbstractExpression
    An identification variable declared by a collection member declaration ranges over values of a collection obtained by navigation using a path expression. Such a path expression represents a navigation involving the association-fields of an entity abstract schema type. Because a path expression can be based on another path expression, the navigation can use the association-fields of related entities. An identification variable of a collection member declaration is declared using a special operator, the reserved identifier IN. The argument to the IN operator is a collection-valued path expression. The path expression evaluates to a collection type specified as a result of navigation to a collection-valued association-field of an entity abstract schema type.
    BNF: collection_member_declaration ::= IN(collection_valued_path_expression) [AS] identification_variable

    or
    BNF: derived_collection_member_declaration ::= IN superquery_identification_variable.{single_valued_object_field.}*collection_valued_field

    Example: SELECT t FROM Player p, IN (p.teams) AS t

        Returns:
        true if the query has the identification variable; false otherwise
      • hasLeftParenthesis

        public boolean hasLeftParenthesis()
        Determines whether the open parenthesis was parsed or not.
        Returns:
        true if the open parenthesis was present in the string version of the query; false otherwise
      • hasRightParenthesis

        public boolean hasRightParenthesis()
        Determines whether the close parenthesis was parsed or not.
        Returns:
        true if the close parenthesis was present in the string version of the query; false otherwise
      • hasSpaceAfterAs

        public boolean hasSpaceAfterAs()
        Determines whether a whitespace was found after AS.
        Returns:
        true if there was a whitespace after AS; false otherwise
      • hasSpaceAfterIn

        public boolean hasSpaceAfterIn()
        Determines whether a whitespace was found after IN.
        Returns:
        true if there was a whitespace after IN; false otherwise
      • hasSpaceAfterRightParenthesis

        public boolean hasSpaceAfterRightParenthesis()
        Determines whether a whitespace was found after the close parenthesis.
        Returns:
        true if there was a whitespace after the right parenthesis; false otherwise
      • isDerived

        public boolean isDerived()
        Determines whether this collection member declaration is used as a derived collection-valued path expression.
        Returns:
        true if this collection member declaration is used as this form: "IN collection_valued_path_expression" in a subquery; false if it's used as this form: IN(collection_valued_path_expression) [AS] identification_variable" in a top-level or subquery queries

      • 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 AbstractExpression
        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
