Method Detail

getNonAliasExpression

public Expression getNonAliasExpression()

Description copied from class: Expression

Returns the main expression, skipping aliases.

Overrides:

getNonAliasExpression in class Expression

Returns:

the expression

getValue

public Value getValue(Session session)

Description copied from class: Expression

Return the resulting value for the current row.

Specified by:

getValue in class Expression

Parameters:

session - the session

Returns:

the result

getType

public int getType()

Description copied from class: Expression

Return the data type. The data type may not be known before the optimization phase.

Specified by:

getType in class Expression

Returns:

the type

mapColumns

public void mapColumns(ColumnResolver resolver,
                       int level)

Description copied from class: Expression

Map the columns of the resolver to expression columns.

Specified by:

mapColumns in class Expression

Parameters:

resolver - the column resolver

level - the subquery nesting level

optimize

public Expression optimize(Session session)

Description copied from class: Expression

Try to optimize the expression.

Specified by:

optimize in class Expression

Parameters:

session - the session

Returns:

the optimized expression

setEvaluatable

public void setEvaluatable(TableFilter tableFilter,
                           boolean b)

Description copied from class: Expression

Tell the expression columns whether the table filter can return values now. This is used when optimizing the query.

Specified by:

setEvaluatable in class Expression

Parameters:

tableFilter - the table filter

b - true if the table filter can return value

getScale

public int getScale()

Description copied from class: Expression

Get the scale of this expression.

Specified by:

getScale in class Expression

Returns:

the scale

getPrecision

public long getPrecision()

Description copied from class: Expression

Get the precision of this expression.

Specified by:

getPrecision in class Expression

Returns:

the precision

getDisplaySize

public int getDisplaySize()

Description copied from class: Expression

Get the display size of this expression.

Specified by:

getDisplaySize in class Expression

Returns:

the display size

isAutoIncrement

public boolean isAutoIncrement()

Description copied from class: Expression

Check if this is an auto-increment column.

Overrides:

isAutoIncrement in class Expression

Returns:

true if it is an auto-increment column

getSQL

public java.lang.String getSQL()

Description copied from class: Expression

Get the SQL statement of this expression. This may not always be the original SQL statement, specially after optimization.

Specified by:

getSQL in class Expression

Returns:

the SQL statement

updateAggregate

public void updateAggregate(Session session)

Description copied from class: Expression

Update an aggregate value. This method is called at statement execution time. It is usually called once for each row, but if the expression is used multiple times (for example in the column list, and as part of the HAVING expression) it is called multiple times - the row counter needs to be used to make sure the internal state is only updated once.

Specified by:

updateAggregate in class Expression

Parameters:

session - the session

getAlias

public java.lang.String getAlias()

Description copied from class: Expression

Get the alias name of a column or SQL expression if it is not an aliased expression.

Overrides:

getAlias in class Expression

Returns:

the alias name

getNullable

public int getNullable()

Description copied from class: Expression

Check whether this expression is a column and can store NULL.

Overrides:

getNullable in class Expression

Returns:

whether NULL is allowed

isEverything

public boolean isEverything(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

Description copied from class: Expression

Check if this expression and all sub-expressions can fulfill a criteria. If any part returns false, the result is false.

Specified by:

isEverything in class Expression

Parameters:

visitor - the visitor

Returns:

if the criteria can be fulfilled

getCost

public int getCost()

Description copied from class: Expression

Estimate the cost to process the expression. Used when optimizing the query, to calculate the query plan with the lowest estimated cost.

Specified by:

getCost in class Expression

Returns:

the estimated cost

getTableName

public java.lang.String getTableName()

Description copied from class: Expression

Get the table name, or null

Overrides:

getTableName in class Expression

Returns:

the table name

getColumnName

public java.lang.String getColumnName()

Description copied from class: Expression

Overrides:

getColumnName in class Expression

Returns:

the column name
