Expression

public final class CollectionValuedPathExpression

extends AbstractPathExpression

A collection_valued_field is designated by the name of an association field in a one-to-many or a many-to-many relationship or by the name of an element collection field. The type of a collection_valued_field is a collection of values of the abstract schema type of the related entity or element type.

Constructor Detail

CollectionValuedPathExpression

CollectionValuedPathExpression(AbstractExpression parent,
                               AbstractExpression expression)

Creates a new CollectionValuedPathExpression.

Parameters:

parent - The parent of this expression

expression - The identification variable that was already parsed, which means the beginning of the parsing should start with a dot

CollectionValuedPathExpression

CollectionValuedPathExpression(AbstractExpression parent,
                               java.lang.String paths)

Creates a new CollectionValuedPathExpression.

Parameters:

parent - The parent of this expression

paths - The path expression

Method Detail

accept

public void accept(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

Visits this Expression by the given visitor.

Parameters:

visitor - The visitor to visit this object

getQueryBNF

public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()

Returns the BNF of this Expression.

Specified by:

getQueryBNF in class AbstractExpression

Returns:

The JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of this Expression
