Method Detail

resolveFromObject

FromObject resolveFromObject()

Returns the FromObject that this object is dependent on. A convenience method that resovles the FromObject id.

getFromObject

@Deprecated
FromObject getFromObject()

Deprecated. - use resolveFromObject() instead.

Returns the FromObject that this object is dependent on.

setFromObject

@Deprecated
void setFromObject(FromObject from)

Deprecated. - use setFromObjectID().

Sets the FromObject that this object is dependent on.

getFromObjectID

DBObjectID getFromObjectID()

Returns the ID of the FromObject that this object is dependent on.

setFromObjectID

void setFromObjectID(DBObjectID from)

Sets the ID of the FromObject that this object is dependent on.

setQualified

void setQualified(boolean q)

Sets wether this FromObjectUsage should qualify itself with the alias from its FromObject. e.g. EMP.ENAME rather than ENAME

isQualified

boolean isQualified()

Gets wether this FromObjectUsage should qualify itself with the alias from its FromObject. e.g. EMP.ENAME rather than ENAME

getColumnName

java.lang.String getColumnName()

Returns the name of the underlying Column, SelectObject etc. FromObjectUsages generally return FROM.COLUMN as their SQL text where FROM is the useable alias of the FromObject and COLUMN is a name. This method returns just the name without FROM.
