Constructor Detail

StandardSQLFunction

public StandardSQLFunction(java.lang.String name)

Construct a standard SQL function definition with a variable return type; the actual return type will depend on the types to which the function is applied.

Using this form, the return type is considered non-static and assumed to be the type of the first argument.

Parameters:

name - The name of the function.

StandardSQLFunction

public StandardSQLFunction(java.lang.String name,
                           Type registeredType)

Construct a standard SQL function definition with a static return type.

Parameters:

name - The name of the function.

registeredType - The static return type.

Method Detail

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

Function name accessor

Returns:

The function name.

getType

public Type getType()

Function static return type accessor.

Returns:

The static function return type; or null if return type is not static.

hasArguments

public boolean hasArguments()

Description copied from interface: SQLFunction

Does this function have any arguments?

Specified by:

hasArguments in interface SQLFunction

Returns:

True if the function expects to have parameters; false otherwise.

hasParenthesesIfNoArguments

public boolean hasParenthesesIfNoArguments()

Description copied from interface: SQLFunction

If there are no arguments, are parentheses required?

Specified by:

hasParenthesesIfNoArguments in interface SQLFunction

Returns:

True if a no-arg call of this function requires parentheses.

getReturnType

public Type getReturnType(Type firstArgumentType,
                          Mapping mapping)

Description copied from interface: SQLFunction

The return type of the function. May be either a concrete type which is preset, or variable depending upon the type of the first function argument.

Note, the 'firstArgumentType' parameter should match the one passed into SQLFunction.render(org.hibernate.type.Type, java.util.List, org.hibernate.engine.spi.SessionFactoryImplementor)

Specified by:

getReturnType in interface SQLFunction

Parameters:

firstArgumentType - The type of the first argument

mapping - The mapping source.

Returns:

The type to be expected as a return.

render

public java.lang.String render(Type firstArgumentType,
                               java.util.List arguments,
                               SessionFactoryImplementor sessionFactory)

Description copied from interface: SQLFunction

Render the function call as SQL fragment.

Note, the 'firstArgumentType' parameter should match the one passed into SQLFunction.getReturnType(org.hibernate.type.Type, org.hibernate.engine.spi.Mapping)

Specified by:

render in interface SQLFunction

Parameters:

firstArgumentType - The type of the first argument

arguments - The function arguments

sessionFactory - The SessionFactory

Returns:

The rendered function call

getRenderedName

protected java.lang.String getRenderedName(java.util.List arguments)

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
