  • Constructor Details

    • CaseExpression

      public CaseExpression(AbstractExpression parent)
      Creates a new CaseExpression.
      Parameters:
      parent - The parent of this expression
  • Method Details

    • accept

      public void accept(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
      Description copied from interface: Expression
      Visits this Expression by the given visitor.
      Parameters:
      visitor - The ExpressionVisitor to visit this object
    • acceptChildren

      public void acceptChildren(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
      Description copied from interface: Expression
      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.
    • addChildrenTo

      protected void addChildrenTo(Collection<Expression> children)
      Description copied from class: AbstractExpression
      Adds the children of this AbstractExpression to the given collection.
      Overrides:
      addChildrenTo in class AbstractExpression
      Parameters:
      children - The collection used to store the children
    • addOrderedChildrenTo

      protected void addOrderedChildrenTo(List<Expression> children)
      Description copied from class: AbstractExpression
      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

      Specified by:
      findQueryBNF in interface Expression
      Overrides:
      findQueryBNF in class AbstractExpression
      Parameters:

      The JPQLQueryBNF that was used to parse the given expression
    • getActualCaseIdentifier

      The CASE identifier that was actually parsed
    • getActualElseIdentifier

      public String getActualElseIdentifier()
      Returns the actual ELSE identifier found in the string representation of the JPQL query, which has the actual case that was used.
      Returns:
      The ELSE identifier that was actually parsed, or an empty string if it was not parsed
    • getActualEndIdentifier

      public String getActualEndIdentifier()
      Returns the actual END identifier found in the string representation of the JPQL query, which has the actual case that was used.
      Returns:
      The END identifier that was actually parsed, or an empty string if it was not parsed
    • getCaseOperand

      public Expression getCaseOperand()
      Returns the Expression that represents the CASE operand.
      Returns:
      The expression that was parsed representing the CASE operand
    • getElseExpression

      public AbstractExpression getElseExpression()
      Returns the Expression that represents the ELSE operand.
      Returns:
      The expression that was parsed representing the ELSE operand
    • getQueryBNF

      public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()
      Description copied from interface: Expression
      Returns the BNF of this Expression.
      Returns:
      The JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of this Expression
    • getWhenClauses

      public AbstractExpression getWhenClauses()
      Returns the Expression that represents the WHEN clauses.
      Returns:
      The expression that was parsed representing the WHEN clauses
    • hasCaseOperand
