Enclosing class:

CriteriaBuilderImpl

public static class CriteriaBuilderImpl.CoalesceImpl<X>
extends FunctionExpressionImpl<X>
implements javax.persistence.criteria.CriteriaBuilder.Coalesce<X>

Interface used to build coalesce expressions. A coalesce expression is equivalent to a case expression that returns null if all its arguments evaluate to null, and the value of its first non-null argument otherwise.
