Field Detail

hasSpaceAfterFetch

private boolean hasSpaceAfterFetch
Determines whether a whitespace was parsed after FETCH.

joinAssociationPath

private AbstractExpression joinAssociationPath
The expression of this fetch join.
Constructor Detail

JoinFetch

JoinFetch(AbstractExpression parent,
          java.lang.String identifier)
Creates a new JoinFetch.
Parameters:
parent - The parent of this expression
identifier - The full JOIN identifier
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

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

getIdentifier

public java.lang.String getIdentifier()
Returns the identifier this expression represents.
Returns:
Either INNER JOIN FETCH, JOIN FETCH, LEFT JOIN_FETCH or LEFT OUTER JOIN_FETCH. Although it's possible to have an incomplete identifier if the query is not complete

getJoinAssociationPath

public Expression getJoinAssociationPath()
Returns the Expression that represents the join association path expression if it was parsed.
Returns:
The expression that was parsed representing the join association path 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

hasJoinAssociationPath

public boolean hasJoinAssociationPath()
Determines whether the join association path expression was parsed.
Returns:
true if the join association path expression was parsed; false otherwise

hasSpaceAfterFetch

public boolean hasSpaceAfterFetch()
Determines whether a whitespace was found after FETCH.
Returns:
true if there was a whitespace after FETCH; false otherwise

isLeftJoinFetch

public boolean isLeftJoinFetch()
Determines whether this JoinFetch is a left join fetch, i.e. Expression.LEFT_JOIN_FETCH or Expression.LEFT_OUTER_JOIN_FETCH.
Returns:
true if this JoinFetch expression is a Expression.LEFT_JOIN_FETCH or Expression.LEFT_OUTER_JOIN_FETCH; false otherwise

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
