Class UpdateClause

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Expression

    public final class UpdateClause
    extends AbstractExpression
    This is the update clause of the update statement.

    An UPDATE statement provides bulk operations over sets of entities of a single entity class (together with its subclasses, if any). Only one entity abstract schema type may be specified in the UPDATE clause.

    BNF: update_clause ::= UPDATE abstract_schema_name [[AS] identification_variable] SET update_item {, update_item}*

    • Method Detail

      • buildCollectionExpression

        public CollectionExpression buildCollectionExpression()
        Creates a new CollectionExpression that will wrap the single update item.
        Returns:
        The single update item represented by a temporary collection
      • getActualSetIdentifier

        public java.lang.String getActualSetIdentifier()
        Returns the actual SET found in the string representation of the JPQL query, which has the actual case that was used.
        Returns:
        The SET identifier that was actually parsed, or an empty string if it was not parsed
      • getActualUpdateIdentifier

        public java.lang.String getActualUpdateIdentifier()
        Returns the actual UPDATE found in the string representation of the JPQL query, which has the actual case that was used.
        Returns:
        The UPDATE identifier that was actually parsed
      • getRangeVariableDeclaration

        public Expression getRangeVariableDeclaration()
        Returns the Expression representing the range variable declaration.
        Returns:
        The expression that was parsed representing the range variable declaration
      • getUpdateItems

        public Expression getUpdateItems()
        Returns the Expression representing the single update item or the collection of update items.
        Returns:
        The expression that was parsed representing the single or multiple update items
      • hasRangeVariableDeclaration

        public boolean hasRangeVariableDeclaration()
        Determines whether the range variable declaration was parsed.
        Returns:
        true if the range variable declaration was parsed; false otherwise
      • hasSet

        public boolean hasSet()
        Determines whether SET was parsed or not.
        Returns:
        true if SET was part of the query; false otherwise
      • hasSpaceAfterRangeVariableDeclaration

        public boolean hasSpaceAfterRangeVariableDeclaration()
        Determines whether a whitespace was found after the abstract schema name declaration.
        Returns:
        true if there was a whitespace after the abstract schema name declaration; false otherwise
      • hasSpaceAfterSet

        public boolean hasSpaceAfterSet()
        Determines whether a whitespace was found after SET.
        Returns:
        true if there was a whitespace after SET; false otherwise
      • hasSpaceAfterUpdate

        public boolean hasSpaceAfterUpdate()
        Determines whether a whitespace was found after the identifier UPDATE.
        Returns:
        true if there was a whitespace after the identifier UPDATE; false otherwise
      • hasUpdateItems

        public boolean hasUpdateItems()
        Determines whether the update items section of the query was parsed.
        Returns:
        true if something was parsed after SET even if it was a malformed expression; false if nothing was parsed
      • isParsingComplete

        protected boolean isParsingComplete​(WordParser wordParser,
                                            java.lang.String word,
                                            Expression expression)
        Determines whether the parsing is complete based on what is left in the given text. The text is never empty.
        Overrides:
        isParsingComplete in class AbstractExpression
        Parameters:
        wordParser - The text to parse based on the current position of the cursor
        word - The word that was retrieved from the given text, which is the first word in the text
        expression - The Expression that has already been parsed
        Returns:
        true if the text no longer can't be parsed by the current expression; false if more can be parsed
      • parse

        protected 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

        protected void toParsedText​(java.lang.StringBuilder writer,
                                    boolean actual)
        Generates a string representation of this Expression, including its children, if it has any.
        Specified by:
        toParsedText in class AbstractExpression
        Parameters:
        writer - The buffer used to append this Expression's string representation
        actual - 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
