Field Detail

deleteClause

private DeleteClause deleteClause
The 'DELETE' clause of this expression.

hasSpace

private boolean hasSpace
Determines whether a whitespace was parsed after the DELETE clause.

whereClause

private AbstractExpression whereClause
The optional 'WHERE' clause of this expression.
Constructor Detail

DeleteStatement

DeleteStatement(AbstractExpression parent)
Creates a new DeleteStatement.
Parameters:
parent - The parent of this expression
Method Detail

accept

public void accept(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
Visits this Expression by the given visitor.
Parameters:
visitor - The visitor to visit this object

acceptChildren

public void acceptChildren(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
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() or Expression.getChildren() is called.

This does not traverse the Expression sub-hierarchy, use an subclass of AbstractTraverseChildrenVisitor in order to traverse the entire sub-hierarchy.

Parameters:
visitor - The visitor to visit the children of this object.

addChildrenTo

void addChildrenTo(java.util.Collection<Expression> children)
Adds the children of this Expression to the given collection.
Overrides:
addChildrenTo in class AbstractExpression
Parameters:
children - The collection used to store the children

addDeleteClause

DeleteClause addDeleteClause()
Manually adds the delete clause to this delete statement.

addOrderedChildrenTo

void addOrderedChildrenTo(java.util.List<StringExpression> children)
Adds the StringExpressions representing this Expression.
Overrides:
addOrderedChildrenTo in class AbstractExpression
Parameters:
children - The list used to store the string representation of this Expression

getDeleteClause

public DeleteClause getDeleteClause()
Returns the Expression representing the DELETE clause.
Returns:
The expression that was parsed representing the DELETE expression

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

getWhereClause

public Expression getWhereClause()
Returns the Expression representing the WHERE clause.
Returns:
The expression representing the WHERE clause

hasSpaceAfterDeleteClause

public boolean hasSpaceAfterDeleteClause()
Determines whether a whitespace was found after the DELETE FROM clause. In some cases, the space is owned by a child of the DELETE FROM clause.
Returns:
true if there was a whitespace after the DELETE FROM clause and owned by this expression; false otherwise

hasWhereClause

public boolean hasWhereClause()
Determines whether the WHERE clause is defined.
Returns:
true if the query that got parsed had the WHERE clause

parse

void parse(WordParser wordParser,
           boolean tolerant)
Parses the query by starting at the current position, which is part of the given WordParser.
Specified by:
parse in class AbstractExpression
Parameters:
wordParser - The text to parse based on the current position of the cursor
tolerant - Determines whether the parsing system should be tolerant, meaning if it should try to parse invalid or incomplete queries

toParsedText

void toParsedText(java.lang.StringBuilder writer,
                  boolean includeVirtual)
Generates a string representation of this Expression.
Specified by:
toParsedText in class AbstractExpression
Parameters:
writer - The buffer used to append this Expression's string representation
includeVirtual - Determines whether to include any characters that are considered virtual, i.e. that was parsed when the query is incomplete and is needed for functionality like content assist
