Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`protected int`	`bindLimitParameters(RowSelection selection, PreparedStatement statement, int index)` Default implementation of binding parameter values needed by the LIMIT clause.
`int`	`bindLimitParametersAtEndOfQuery(RowSelection selection, PreparedStatement statement, int index)` Bind parameter values needed by the LIMIT clause after original SELECT statement.
`int`	`bindLimitParametersAtStartOfQuery(RowSelection selection, PreparedStatement statement, int index)` Bind parameter values needed by the LIMIT clause before original SELECT statement.
`boolean`	`bindLimitParametersFirst()` Does the <tt>LIMIT</tt> clause come at the start of the <tt>SELECT</tt> statement, rather than at the end?
`boolean`	`bindLimitParametersInReverseOrder()` ANSI SQL defines the LIMIT clause to be in the form LIMIT offset, limit.
`int`	`convertToFirstRowValue(int zeroBasedFirstResult)` Hibernate APIs explicitly state that setFirstResult() should be a zero-based offset.
`boolean`	`forceLimitUsage()` Generally, if there is no limit applied to a Hibernate query we do not apply any limits to the SQL query.
`protected int`	`getMaxOrLimit(RowSelection selection)` Some dialect-specific LIMIT clauses require the maximum last row number (aka, first_row_number + total_row_count), while others require the maximum returned row count (the total maximum number of rows to return).

`void`	`setMaxRows(RowSelection selection, PreparedStatement statement)` Use JDBC API to limit the number of rows returned by the SQL query.
`boolean`	`supportsLimit()` Does this handler support some form of limiting query results via a SQL clause?
`boolean`	`supportsLimitOffset()` Does this handler’s LIMIT support (if any) additionally support specifying an offset?
`boolean`	`supportsVariableLimit()` Does this handler support bind variables (i.e., prepared statement parameters) for its limit/offset?
`boolean`	`useMaxForLimit()` Does the <tt>LIMIT</tt> clause take a "maximum" row number instead of a total number of returned rows? <p/> This is easiest understood via an example.

```
- Method Detail
  - supportsLimit
```
public boolean supportsLimit()
```
    Description copied from interface: LimitHandler
    
    Does this handler support some form of limiting query results via a SQL clause?
    
    Specified by:
    
    supportsLimit in interface LimitHandler
    
    Returns:
    
    True if this handler supports some form of LIMIT.
  - supportsLimitOffset
```
public boolean supportsLimitOffset()
```
    Description copied from interface: LimitHandler
    
    Does this handler’s LIMIT support (if any) additionally support specifying an offset?
    
    Specified by:
    
    supportsLimitOffset in interface LimitHandler
    
    Returns:
    
    True if the handler supports an offset within the limit support.
  - supportsVariableLimit
```
public boolean supportsVariableLimit()
```
    Does this handler support bind variables (i.e., prepared statement parameters) for its limit/offset?
    
    Returns:
    
    True if bind variables can be used; false otherwise.
  - bindLimitParametersInReverseOrder
```
public boolean bindLimitParametersInReverseOrder()
```
    ANSI SQL defines the LIMIT clause to be in the form LIMIT offset, limit. Does this dialect require us to bind the parameters in reverse order?
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the correct order is limit, offset
  - bindLimitParametersFirst
```
public boolean bindLimitParametersFirst()
```
    Does the <tt>LIMIT</tt> clause come at the start of the <tt>SELECT</tt> statement, rather than at the end?
    
    Returns:
    
    true if limit parameters should come before other parameters
  - useMaxForLimit
```
public boolean useMaxForLimit()
```
    Does the <tt>LIMIT</tt> clause take a "maximum" row number instead of a total number of returned rows? <p/> This is easiest understood via an example. Consider you have a table with 20 rows, but you only want to retrieve rows number 11 through 20. Generally, a limit with offset would say that the offset = 11 and the limit = 10 (we only want 10 rows at a time); this is specifying the total number of returned rows. Some dialects require that we instead specify offset = 11 and limit = 20, where 20 is the "last" row we want relative to offset (i.e. total number of rows = 20 - 11 = 9) <p/> So essentially, is limit relative from offset? Or is limit absolute?
    
    Returns:
    
    True if limit is relative from offset; false otherwise.
  - forceLimitUsage
```
public boolean forceLimitUsage()
```
    Generally, if there is no limit applied to a Hibernate query we do not apply any limits to the SQL query. This option forces that the limit be written to the SQL query.
    
    Returns:
    
    True to force limit into SQL query even if none specified in Hibernate query; false otherwise.
  - convertToFirstRowValue
```
public int convertToFirstRowValue(int zeroBasedFirstResult)
```
    Hibernate APIs explicitly state that setFirstResult() should be a zero-based offset. Here we allow the Dialect a chance to convert that value based on what the underlying db or driver will expect. <p/> NOTE: what gets passed into processSql(String, org.hibernate.engine.spi.RowSelection) is the zero-based offset. Dialects which do not supportsVariableLimit() should take care to perform any needed first-row-conversion calls prior to injecting the limit values into the SQL string.
    
    Parameters:
    
    zeroBasedFirstResult - The user-supplied, zero-based first row offset.
    
    Returns:
    
    The corresponding db/dialect specific offset.

  - processSql
