org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.internal.jpql.parser.GroupByClause

All Implemented Interfaces:

Expression

public final class GroupByClause
extends AbstractExpression

The GROUP BY construct enables the aggregation of values according to the properties of an entity class.

BNF: groupby_clause ::= GROUP BY groupby_item {, groupby_item}*

Method Detail

accept

public void accept(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

Visits this Expression by the given visitor.

Parameters:

visitor - The visitor to visit this object

acceptChildren

public void acceptChildren(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

Visits the children of this Expression. This method can be used to optimize traversing the children since a new list is not created every time Expression.children() or Expression.getChildren() is called.

This does not traverse the Expression sub-hierarchy, use an subclass of AbstractTraverseChildrenVisitor in order to traverse the entire sub-hierarchy.

Parameters:

visitor - The visitor to visit the children of this object.

buildCollectionExpression

public CollectionExpression buildCollectionExpression()

Creates a new CollectionExpression that will wrap the single group by item.

Returns:

The single group by item represented by a temporary collection

getGroupByItems

public Expression getGroupByItems()

Returns the Expression that represents the list of group by items if any was parsed.

Returns:

The expression that was parsed representing the list of items

getQueryBNF

public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()

Returns the BNF of this Expression.

Specified by:

getQueryBNF in class AbstractExpression

Returns:

The JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of this Expression

hasGroupByItems

public boolean hasGroupByItems()

Determines whether the list of items was parsed.

Returns:

true if at least one item was parsed; false otherwise

hasSpaceAfterGroupBy

public boolean hasSpaceAfterGroupBy()

Determines whether a whitespace was found after GROUP BY.

Returns:

true if there was a whitespace after GROUP BY; false otherwise
