public interface WhereBuilder<T extends WhereBuilder<T>>
extends BaseWhereBuilder<T>

An interface for builders that support filtering. This is related to the fact, that a query builder supports where clauses.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
T	setWhereExpression(String expression)	Sets the given expression as expression for the where clause.
MultipleSubqueryInitiator<T>	setWhereExpressionSubqueries(String expression)	Starts a MultipleSubqueryInitiator for expression of the where clause.

Method Details

whereOr

WhereOrBuilder<T> whereOr()

Starts a WhereOrBuilder which is a predicate consisting only of disjunctiv connected predicates. When the builder finishes, the predicate is added to the parent predicate container represented by the type T.

Returns:

The or predicate builder for the where clause

setWhereExpression

T setWhereExpression(String expression)

Sets the given expression as expression for the where clause.

Parameters:

expression - The where expression

Returns:

The builder

Since:

1.2.0

setWhereExpressionSubqueries

MultipleSubqueryInitiator<T> setWhereExpressionSubqueries(String expression)

Starts a MultipleSubqueryInitiator for expression of the where clause.

All occurrences of subsequently defined subqueryAliases in expression will be replaced by the respective subquery. When the builder finishes, the resulting expression is used as expression for the where clause.

Parameters:

expression - The where expression

Returns:

The subquery initiator for building multiple subqueries for their respective subqueryAliases

Since:

1.2.0

where

PredicateBuilder where()

Starts a PredicateBuilder for the where clause.

Returns:

The predicate builder for the where clause

Since:

1.6.8
