Class CompoundExpressionImpl

java.lang.Object

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.querydef.SelectionImpl<X>

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.querydef.ExpressionImpl<X>

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.querydef.FunctionExpressionImpl<java.lang.Boolean>

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.querydef.CompoundExpressionImpl

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, InternalExpression, InternalSelection

Direct Known Subclasses:

InImpl, PredicateImpl

public class CompoundExpressionImpl
extends FunctionExpressionImpl<java.lang.Boolean>

Purpose: Contains the implementation of the Predicate interface of the JPA criteria API.

Description: The predicate forms the least specific expression node. Predicates result in boolean expressions that are combined to form the final expression.

Since:

EclipseLink 1.2

Method Detail

getOperator

public BooleanOperator getOperator()

Return the boolean operator for the predicate. If the predicate is simple, this is AND.

Returns:

boolean operator for the predicate

getExpressions

public java.util.List<<any>> getExpressions()

isCompoundExpression

public boolean isCompoundExpression()

Specified by:

isCompoundExpression in interface InternalExpression

Overrides:

isCompoundExpression in class FunctionExpressionImpl<java.lang.Boolean>

isExpression

public boolean isExpression()

Specified by:

isExpression in interface InternalExpression

Overrides:

isExpression in class FunctionExpressionImpl<java.lang.Boolean>

isNegated

public boolean isNegated()

Has negation been applied to the predicate.

Returns:

boolean indicating if the predicate has been negated

not

public Predicate not()

Apply negation to the predicate.

Returns:

the negated predicate

isPredicate

public boolean isPredicate()

Specified by:

isPredicate in interface InternalExpression

Overrides:

isPredicate in class ExpressionImpl<java.lang.Boolean>

setIsNegated

protected void setIsNegated(boolean isNegated)

setOperator

public void setOperator(BooleanOperator operator)

Parameters:

operator - the operator to set

setParentNode

public void setParentNode(org.eclipse.persistence.expressions.Expression parentNode)

This method is used to store what will be the parent EclipseLink expression in the case the tree needs to be altered. Currently used for In.
