All Implemented Interfaces:

Expression

public final class TypeExpression
extends AbstractSingleEncapsulatedExpression

An entity type expression can be used to restrict query polymorphism. The TYPE operator returns the exact type of the argument.

Part of JPA 2.0.

BNF: type_discriminator ::= TYPE(identification_variable | single_valued_object_path_expression | input_parameter)

Constructor Detail

TypeExpression

public TypeExpression(AbstractExpression parent)

Creates a new TypeExpression.

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 ExpressionVisitor to visit this object

getEncapsulatedExpressionQueryBNFId

public java.lang.String getEncapsulatedExpressionQueryBNFId()

Returns the BNF used to parse the encapsulated expression.

Specified by:

getEncapsulatedExpressionQueryBNFId in class AbstractSingleEncapsulatedExpression

Returns:

The BNF used to parse the encapsulated expression

getQueryBNF

public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()

Returns the BNF of this Expression.

Returns:

The JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of this Expression

parse

protected AbstractExpression parse(WordParser wordParser,
                                   java.lang.String queryBNFId,
                                   boolean tolerant)

Parses the given text by using the specified BNF.

Overrides:

parse in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

wordParser - The text to parse based on the current position of the cursor

queryBNFId - The unique identifier of the JPQLQueryBNF that is used to determine how to parse the text at the current cursor position within the JPQL query

tolerant - Determines whether the parsing system should be tolerant, meaning if it should try to parse invalid or incomplete queries

Returns:

The Expression representing the given sub-query
