Constructor Detail

LengthExpressionStateObject

public LengthExpressionStateObject(StateObject parent)

Creates a new LengthExpressionStateObject.

Parameters:

parent - The parent of this state object, which cannot be null

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - The given parent cannot be null

LengthExpressionStateObject

public LengthExpressionStateObject(StateObject parent,
                                   StateObject stateObject)

Creates a new LengthExpressionStateObject.

Parameters:

parent - The parent of this state object, which cannot be null

stateObject - The StateObject representing the encapsulated expression

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - The given parent cannot be null

LengthExpressionStateObject

public LengthExpressionStateObject(StateObject parent,
                                   java.lang.String jpqlFragment)

Creates a new LengthExpressionStateObject.

Parameters:

parent - The parent of this state object, which cannot be null

jpqlFragment - The portion of the query representing the encapsulated expression

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - The given parent cannot be null

Method Detail

accept

public void accept(StateObjectVisitor visitor)

Visits this StateObject by the given visitor.

Parameters:

visitor - The visitor to visit this object

getExpression

public LengthExpression getExpression()

Returns the actual parsed object if this StateObject representation of the JPQL query was created by parsing an existing JPQL query.

Specified by:

getExpression in interface StateObject

Overrides:

getExpression in class AbstractSingleEncapsulatedExpressionStateObject

Returns:

The parsed object when a JPQL query is parsed and converted into a StateObject or null when the JPQL query is manually created (i.e. not from a string)

getIdentifier

public java.lang.String getIdentifier()

Returns the JPQL identifier of the expression represented by this AbstractSingleEncapsulatedExpressionStateObject.

Specified by:

getIdentifier in class AbstractEncapsulatedExpressionStateObject

Returns:

The JPQL identifier that is shown before the left parenthesis

setExpression

public void setExpression(LengthExpression expression)

Keeps a reference of the parsed object object, which should only be done when this object is instantiated during the conversion of a parsed JPQL query into StateObjects.

Parameters:

expression - The parsed object representing a LENGTH expression

setStateObject

public void setStateObject(StateObject stateObject)

Sets the given StateObject to represent the new encapsulated expression.

Parameters:

stateObject - The new encapsulated StateObject
