public class BooleanExpression
extends SQLExpression

Representation of a Boolean expression in a Query. Can be represented in one of the following ways in the datastore

• As String-based, so stored as "Y", "N"
• As numeric-based, so stored as 1, 0
• As boolean-based, so stored as true, false

A boolean expression has "closure" if it represents a boolean SQL expression (i.e "fld == val"). If it doesn't have "closure" then it represents a clause like "booleanFld" or "false" or "true".

Constructor Detail

BooleanExpression

public BooleanExpression(SQLStatement stmt,
                         JavaTypeMapping mapping,
                         String sql)

Constructor for a boolean expression for the specified mapping using the specified SQL text.

Parameters:

stmt - The statement

mapping - the mapping associated to this expression

sql - The SQL text that will return a boolean

BooleanExpression

public BooleanExpression(SQLStatement stmt,
                         SQLTable table,
                         JavaTypeMapping mapping)

Constructor for a boolean expression for the specified mapping of the table. The boolean expression DOESN'T have closure using this constructor.

Parameters:

stmt - The statement

table - The table this mapping belongs to

mapping - the mapping associated to this expression

BooleanExpression

public BooleanExpression(SQLStatement stmt,
                         JavaTypeMapping mapping)

Constructor for a boolean expression for the specified mapping of the table. The boolean expression has closure using this constructor.

Parameters:

stmt - The statement

mapping - the mapping associated to this expression

BooleanExpression

public BooleanExpression(org.datanucleus.query.expression.Expression.MonadicOperator op,
                         SQLExpression expr1)

Perform an operation

op

on expression

expr1

. The boolean expression has closure using this constructor.

Parameters:

op - operator

expr1 - operand

BooleanExpression

public BooleanExpression(SQLExpression expr1,
                         org.datanucleus.query.expression.Expression.DyadicOperator op,
                         SQLExpression expr2)

Perform an operation

op

between

expr1

and

expr2

. The boolean expression has closure using this constructor.

Parameters:

expr1 - the first expression

op - the operator between operands

expr2 - the second expression

Method Detail

hasClosure

public boolean hasClosure()

and

public BooleanExpression and(SQLExpression expr)

Description copied from class: SQLExpression

Conditional AND. Evaluates its right-hand operand only if the value of its left-hand operand is true.

Overrides:

and in class SQLExpression

Parameters:

expr - the right-hand operand

Returns:

the result value is true if both operand values are true; otherwise, the result is false.

eor

public BooleanExpression eor(SQLExpression expr)

Description copied from class: SQLExpression

Exclusive OR

Overrides:

eor in class SQLExpression

Parameters:

expr - the right-hand operand

Returns:

the result value is the bitwise exclusive OR of the operand values.

ior

public BooleanExpression ior(SQLExpression expr)

Description copied from class: SQLExpression

Conditional OR. Evaluates its right-hand operand only if the value of its left-hand operand is false.

Overrides:

ior in class SQLExpression

Parameters:

expr - the right-hand operand

Returns:

the result value is false if both operand values are false; otherwise, the result is true.

not

public BooleanExpression not()

Description copied from class: SQLExpression

Logical complement

Overrides:

not in class SQLExpression

Returns:

the result value is false if operand is true; otherwise, the result is true.

eq

public BooleanExpression eq(SQLExpression expr)

Description copied from class: SQLExpression

Equality operator (equals to)

Overrides:

eq in class SQLExpression

Parameters:

expr - the right-hand operand

Returns:

The type of an equality expression is a boolean

ne

public BooleanExpression ne(SQLExpression expr)

Description copied from class: SQLExpression

Not equality operator (not equals to)

Overrides:

ne in class SQLExpression

Parameters:

expr - the right-hand operand

Returns:

The type of an equality expression is a boolean

in

public BooleanExpression in(SQLExpression expr,
                            boolean not)

Description copied from class: SQLExpression

In expression. Return true if this is contained by expr

Overrides:

in in class SQLExpression

Parameters:

expr - the right-hand expression

not - Whether we really want "not in"

Returns:

true if the left-hand expression is contained by the right-hand expression. Otherwise the result is false.

invoke

public SQLExpression invoke(String methodName,
                            List args)

Description copied from class: SQLExpression

Invocation of a method on this expression.

Overrides:

invoke in class SQLExpression

Parameters:

methodName - name of the method to invoke

args - Args to this method (if any)

Returns:

the converted value

neg

public BooleanExpression neg()

Description copied from class: SQLExpression

Unary Minus Operator

Overrides:

neg in class SQLExpression
