public final class ConnectByClause extends AbstractExpression
The CONNECT BY clause allows selecting rows in a hierarchical order using the hierarchical query clause. CONNECT BY specifies the relationship between parent rows and child rows of the hierarchy.BNF:connectby_clause ::= CONNECT BY { single_valued_object_path_expression | collection_valued_path_expression }- Version:

Constructor Detail

ConnectByClause
public ConnectByClause(AbstractExpression parent)
Creates a newConnectByClause.- Parameters:
parent- The parent of this expression
-
-
Method Detail
-
accept
public void accept(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
Visits thisExpressionby the givenvisitor.- Parameters:
visitor- TheExpressionVisitorto visit this object
-
acceptChildren
public void acceptChildren(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
Visits the children of thisExpression. This method can be used to optimize traversing the children since a new list is not created every timeExpression.children()is called.This does not traverse the
Expressionsub-hierarchy, use a subclass ofAbstractTraverseChildrenVisitorin order to traverse the entire sub-hierarchy.- Parameters:
visitor- Thevisitorto visit the children of this object.
-
addChildrenTo
protected void addChildrenTo(java.util.Collection<Expression> children)
Adds the children of thisAbstractExpressionto the given collection.- Overrides:
addChildrenToin classAbstractExpression- Parameters:
children- The collection used to store the children
-
addOrderedChildrenTo
protected void addOrderedChildrenTo(java.util.List<Expression> children)
Adds the children of thisAbstractExpressionto the given list.- Overrides:
addOrderedChildrenToin classAbstractExpression- Parameters:
children- The list used to store the string representation of thisAbstractExpression
-
findQueryBNF
public JPQLQueryBNF findQueryBNF(Expression expression)
Retrieves theJPQLQueryBNFthat represents the fragment of thisExpressionthat was used when parsing the givenExpression.- Specified by:
findQueryBNFin interfaceExpression- Overrides:
findQueryBNFin classAbstractExpression- Parameters:
expression- TheExpressionthat is a descendant of this one- Returns:
- The
JPQLQueryBNFthat was used to parse the given expression
-
getActualIdentifier
public java.lang.String getActualIdentifier()
Returns the actual CONNECT BY identifier found in the string representation of the JPQL query, which has the actual case that was used.- Returns:
- The CONNECT BY identifier that was actually parsed, or an empty string if it was not parsed
-
getExpression
public Expression getExpression()
Returns theExpressionrepresenting the relationship expression.- Returns:
- The expression representing the relationship expression
-
getQueryBNF
public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()
Returns the BNF of thisExpression.- Returns:
- The
JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of thisExpression
-
hasExpression
public boolean hasExpression()
Determines whether the relationship expression was parsed.- Returns:
trueif the relationship expression was parsed;falseif it was not parsed
-
hasSpaceAfterConnectBy
public boolean hasSpaceAfterConnectBy()
Determines whether a whitespace was found after CONNECT BY.- Returns:
trueif there was a whitespace after CONNECT BY;falseotherwise
-
parse
protected void parse(WordParser wordParser, boolean tolerant)
Parses the query by starting at the current position, which is part of the givenWordParser.- Specified by:
parsein classAbstractExpression- Parameters:
wordParser- The text to parse based on the current position of the cursortolerant- Determines whether the parsing system should be tolerant, meaning if it should try to parse invalid or incomplete queries
-
toParsedText
protected void toParsedText(java.lang.StringBuilder writer, boolean actual)Generates a string representation of thisExpression, including its children, if it has any.- Specified by:
toParsedTextin classAbstractExpression- Parameters:
writer- The buffer used to append thisExpression's string representationactual- Determines whether the string representation should represent what was parsed, i.e. include any "virtual" whitespace (such as ending whitespace) and the actual case of the JPQL identifiers
