Constructor Detail

CompoundPredicate

public CompoundPredicate(CriteriaBuilderImpl criteriaBuilder,
                 Predicate.BooleanOperator operator)

Constructs an empty conjunction or disjunction.

Parameters:

criteriaBuilder - The query builder from which this originates.

operator - Indicates whether this predicate will function as a conjunction or disjunction.

CompoundPredicate

public CompoundPredicate(CriteriaBuilderImpl criteriaBuilder,
                 Predicate.BooleanOperator operator,
                 Expression<Boolean>... expressions)

Constructs a conjunction or disjunction over the given expressions.

Parameters:

criteriaBuilder - The query builder from which this originates.

operator - Indicates whether this predicate will function as a conjunction or disjunction.

expressions - The expressions to be grouped.

CompoundPredicate

public CompoundPredicate(CriteriaBuilderImpl criteriaBuilder,
                 Predicate.BooleanOperator operator,
                 List<Expression<Boolean>> expressions)

Constructs a conjunction or disjunction over the given expressions.

Parameters:

criteriaBuilder - The query builder from which this originates.

operator - Indicates whether this predicate will function as a conjunction or disjunction.

expressions - The expressions to be grouped.

Method Detail

getOperator

public Predicate.BooleanOperator getOperator()

Description copied from interface: Predicate

Return the boolean operator for the predicate. If the predicate is simple, this is AND.

Specified by:

getOperator in interface Predicate

Returns:

boolean operator for the predicate

getExpressions

public List<Expression<Boolean>> getExpressions()

Description copied from interface: Predicate

Return the top-level conjuncts or disjuncts of the predicate. Returns empty list if there are no top-level conjuncts or disjuncts of the predicate. Modifications to the list do not affect the query.

Specified by:

getExpressions in interface Predicate

Returns:

list of boolean expressions forming the predicate

registerParameters

public void registerParameters(ParameterRegistry registry)

Description copied from interface: ParameterContainer

Register any parameters contained within this query component with the given registry.

Specified by:

registerParameters in interface ParameterContainer

Parameters:

registry - The parameter registry with which to register.

render

public String render(CriteriaQueryCompiler.RenderingContext renderingContext)

Specified by:

render in interface Renderable

renderProjection

public String renderProjection(CriteriaQueryCompiler.RenderingContext renderingContext)

Specified by:

renderProjection in interface Renderable

not

public Predicate not()

Create negation of compound predicate by using logic rules: 1. not (x || y) is (not x && not y) 2. not (x && y) is (not x || not y)

Specified by:

not in interface Predicate

Overrides:

not in class AbstractPredicateImpl

Returns:

negated predicate
