    Limitations
    ----------------

    • Reserved SQL keywords cannot be used as table, column or sequence names. Use a different name, or enclose the name in double quotes. For example: @Column(name="\"LANGUAGE\"")
    • Spaces cannot be used in table, column or sequence names. (bug 304906)
    • Input parameters cannot be used as first two arguments to the LOCATE function at the same time. (bug 304897)
    • The first argument to the SUBSTRING function cannot be an input parameter. (bug 304897)
    • Input parameters cannot be used as adjacent arguments to the CONCAT function. Concatenate the values in Java code first and pass the result to the query instead. (bug 304897)
    • Input parameters cannot be used at both sides of an operand at the same time in an SQL statement (e.g. '? * ?'). Perform the operation in Java code first and pass the result to the query instead.
    • Identity fields cannot be used. When primary key generation type IDENTITY is specified, a database sequence will be used instead.
    • Pessimistic Locking adds 'FOR UPDATE' to the SELECT statement, and cannot be used with queries that use DISTINCT. (bug 304903)
    • Pessimistic Locking cannot be used with queries that select from multiple tables. (bug 304903)
    • The LockNoWait option of Pessimistic Locking cannot be used; it is ignored when specified (i.e. only 'FOR UPDATE' is added to the SELECT statement).
    • Query timeout cannot be used; the timeout value is silently ignored. (bug 304905)
    • Bulk update and delete operations that require multiple tables to be accessed cannot be used (e.g. bulk operation on an entity that is part of an inheritance hierarchy, UpdateAll and DeleteAll queries). (See bug 298193).
    • Dropping of tables, sequences and procedures while the database connection is still open can fail due to unreleased locks. Shut down the Java process that executed the create operation before performing the drop operation, or have the create operation use an unpooled connection that is closed after use (GlassFish's deploy-time table generation function uses an unpooled connection).
    • The standard deviation (STDDEV) and variance (VARIANCE) functions cannot be used. (bug 304909)
    • '= NULL' and '<> NULL' cannot be used for null comparisons in the WHERE clause. Use 'IS (NOT) NULL' instead.
    • A scrollable cursor policy of CONCUR_UPDATABLE mode cannot be used with queries that select from multiple tables.
    • Columns and literals of different type may need casting to allow them to be compared or assigned. (bug 372178) For example: 'SELECT ... WHERE CAST(PHONE_ORDER_VARCHAR AS INTEGER) BETWEEN 0 AND 1'
    • Subqueries with joins to the outer query are not supported. (see rfe 298193)
    • Stored functions are not supported. (bug 342409)
    • Using subquery in select list for query specification or single-row SELECT statement is not allowed. (bug 372172)
    • The CascadeOnDelete doesn't work on a relation where CascadeType.Remove or CascadeType.All is specified. (bug 342413)
    • A subquery cannot be specified on both sides of a comparison predicate or a quantified predicate. (bug 378313)
    • A base table name to be updated cannot be identical to table name in from clause in query or subquery specification (bug 381302)

    Additional Notes
    ----------------

    • When using DDL generation, indices are automatically generated for primary and unique keys.
    • The MOD(x, y) function is executed as 'CASE WHEN y = 0 THEN x ELSE (x - y * TRUNC( x / y )) END' on Symfoware database, which gives the same result as the MOD function on Oracle database. Input parameters cannot be used for both its arguments at the same time. In such case, calculate the modulus in Java code first and pass the result to the query instead.
    • When input parameters are used as arguments to the TRIM function, they are substituted with their values before the SQL statement is sent to the JDBC driver.
    • When an input parameter is used as argument to the UPPER, LOWER or LENGTH functions, it is substituted with its value before the SQL statement is sent to the JDBC driver.

      • shouldAlwaysUseTempStorageForModifyAll

        public boolean shouldAlwaysUseTempStorageForModifyAll()
        Symfoware does not support the default syntax generated for update-all and delete-all queries as they can include the same table in the FROM clause of the main and the sub-queries. However, the alternative of using global temporary tables leads to table locking issues, so returns false to prevent the use of global temporary tables.
        Overrides:
        shouldAlwaysUseTempStorageForModifyAll in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

      • shouldBindLiterals

        public boolean shouldBindLiterals()
        Allows platform to choose whether to bind literals in SQL statements or not.
        Literal binding is enabled for Symfoware in general. As a number of functions and operators have restrictions on the use of input parameters, it is disabled for those.
        Overrides:
        shouldBindLiterals in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

        isDynamicSQLRequiredForFunctions()

      • shouldCreateIndicesForPrimaryKeys

        public boolean shouldCreateIndicesForPrimaryKeys()
        Used for table creation. Symfoware needs an index to be created explicitly for columns with a primary key constraint.
        Overrides:
        shouldCreateIndicesForPrimaryKeys in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform
        Returns:
        true: indices should be created during table generation

      • shouldCreateIndicesOnUniqueKeys

        public boolean shouldCreateIndicesOnUniqueKeys()
        Used for table creation. Symfoware needs an index to be created explicitly for columns with a unique constraint.
        Overrides:
        shouldCreateIndicesOnUniqueKeys in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform
        Returns:
        true: indices should be created during table generation

      • shouldPrintInputTokenAtStart

        public boolean shouldPrintInputTokenAtStart()
        Used for stored procedure creation: Some platforms want to print prefix for INPUT arguments BEFORE NAME. If wanted, override and return true.
        Overrides:
        shouldPrintInputTokenAtStart in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

      • shouldPrintOutputTokenBeforeType

        public boolean shouldPrintOutputTokenBeforeType()
        This is required in the construction of the stored procedures with output parameters
        Overrides:
        shouldPrintOutputTokenBeforeType in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

      • shouldPrintOutputTokenAtStart

        public boolean shouldPrintOutputTokenAtStart()
        This is required in the construction of the stored procedures with output parameters
        Overrides:
        shouldPrintOutputTokenAtStart in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

      • shouldPrintStoredProcedureArgumentNameInCall

        public boolean shouldPrintStoredProcedureArgumentNameInCall()
        Symfoware stored procedure calls do not require the argument name be printed in the call string.
        E.g. call MyStoredProc(?) instead of call MyStoredProc(myvariable = ?)
        Overrides:
        shouldPrintStoredProcedureArgumentNameInCall in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

      • shouldPrintStoredProcedureVariablesAfterBeginString

        public boolean shouldPrintStoredProcedureVariablesAfterBeginString()
        Used for stored procedure creation: Symfoware declares variables AFTER the procedure body's BEGIN string.
        Overrides:
        shouldPrintStoredProcedureVariablesAfterBeginString in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

      • supportsANSIInnerJoinSyntax

        public boolean supportsANSIInnerJoinSyntax()
        Indicates whether the ANSI syntax for inner joins (e.g. SELECT FROM t1 JOIN t2 ON t1.pk = t2.fk) is supported by this platform. Symfoware does not.
        Overrides:
        supportsANSIInnerJoinSyntax in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

      • supportsForeignKeyConstraints

        public boolean supportsForeignKeyConstraints()
        Symfoware does not support foreign key constraint syntax, so returns false.
        Overrides:
        supportsForeignKeyConstraints in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

      • supportsGlobalTempTables

        public boolean supportsGlobalTempTables()
        Indicates whether the platform supports global temporary tables. Although Symfoware does, it leads to table locking issues when used from EclipseLink.
        Overrides:
        supportsGlobalTempTables in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform
        See Also:
        shouldAlwaysUseTempStorageForModifyAll()

      • supportsIndividualTableLocking

        public boolean supportsIndividualTableLocking()
        Indicates whether locking clause could be selectively applied only to some tables in a ReadQuery.
        Symfoware platform currently only supports FOR UPDATE locking, which cannot be applied to queries that select from multiple tables. Use of other locking strategies (LOCK_MODE) are yet to be explored.
        Overrides:
        supportsIndividualTableLocking in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

      • supportsLockingQueriesWithMultipleTables

        public boolean supportsLockingQueriesWithMultipleTables()
        Indicates whether locking clause could be applied to the query that has more than one table.
        Symfoware platform currently only supports FOR UPDATE locking, which cannot be applied to queries that select from multiple tables. Use of other locking strategies (LOCK_MODE) are yet to be explored.
        Overrides:
        supportsLockingQueriesWithMultipleTables in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

      • supportsSequenceObjects

        public boolean supportsSequenceObjects()
        Indicates whether the platform supports sequence objects.
        Symfoware does through global sequence objects.

      • supportsStoredFunctions

        public boolean supportsStoredFunctions()
        Indicates whether the platform supports stored functions.
        Although Symfoware supports some stored functions as function routines, their functionality is incompatible with the one EclipseLink provides. So, return false;
        Overrides:
        supportsStoredFunctions in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform

      • supportsUniqueKeyConstraints

        public boolean supportsUniqueKeyConstraints()
        Symfoware supports unique key constraints, so returns true.
        Do note that unique constraints cannot be added/removed using "ALTER TABLE ADD/DROP CONSTRAINT" syntax.
        Overrides:
        supportsUniqueKeyConstraints in class org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.DatabasePlatform
