        public java.lang.String processSql​(java.lang.String sql,

        Description copied from interface: LimitHandler
        Return processed SQL query.
        Specified by:
        processSql in interface LimitHandler
        Overrides:
        processSql in class AbstractLimitHandler
        Parameters:
        sql - the SQL query to process.
        selection - the selection criteria for rows.
        Returns:
        Query statement with LIMIT clause applied.

      • useMaxForLimit

        public boolean useMaxForLimit()
        Description copied from class: AbstractLimitHandler
        Does the LIMIT clause take a "maximum" row number instead of a total number of returned rows?

        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)

        So essentially, is limit relative from offset? Or is limit absolute?

        Overrides:
        useMaxForLimit in class AbstractLimitHandler
        Returns:
        True if limit is relative from offset; false otherwise.

      • supportsVariableLimit

        public boolean supportsVariableLimit()
        Description copied from class: AbstractLimitHandler
        Does this handler support bind variables (i.e., prepared statement parameters) for its limit/offset?
        Overrides:
        supportsVariableLimit in class AbstractLimitHandler
        Returns:
        True if bind variables can be used; false otherwise.
