public final class FromClause
extends AbstractFromClause

The FROM clause of a query defines the domain of the query by declaring identification variables. An identification variable is an identifier declared in the FROM clause of a query. The domain of the query may be constrained by path expressions. Identification variables designate instances of a particular entity abstract schema type. The FROM clause can contain multiple identification variable declarations separated by a comma (,).

BNF: from_clause ::= FROM identification_variable_declaration {, {identification_variable_declaration | collection_member_declaration}}*
