All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable, BinaryComparison, PredicateCriteria.Negatable, LanguageObject, Expression

Direct Known Subclasses:

ImmutableCompareCriteria

public class CompareCriteria
extends AbstractCompareCriteria
implements BinaryComparison

A criteria which represents a simple operator relationship between two expressions. There are 6 operator types. Each side of the comparison may be an expression, which could be an element, a constant, or a function.

Some examples are:

• ticker = 'IBM'
• price >= 50
• revenue < 0
• 5 <= length(companyName)

Constructor Detail

CompareCriteria

public CompareCriteria()

Constructs a default instance of this class.

CompareCriteria

public CompareCriteria(Expression leftExpression,
                       int operator,
                       Expression rightExpression)

Constructs an instance of this class for a specific "operand operator operand" clause.

Parameters:

identifier - The variable being compared

value - The value the variable is being compared to (literal or variable)

operator - The operator representing how the variable and value are to be compared

Method Detail

setRightExpression

public void setRightExpression(Expression expression)

Set right expression.

Specified by:

setRightExpression in interface BinaryComparison

Parameters:

expression - Right expression

getRightExpression

public Expression getRightExpression()

Get right expression.

Specified by:

getRightExpression in interface BinaryComparison

Returns:

right expression

set

public void set(Expression leftExpression,
                int operator,
                Expression rightExpression)

Sets the operands and operator. The clause is of the form: .

Parameters:

leftExpression - The left expression

operator - The operator representing how the expressions are compared

rightExpression - The right expression

setOptional

public void setOptional(Boolean isOptional)

Set during planning to indicate that this criteria is no longer needed to correctly process a join

Parameters:

isOptional -

isOptional

public boolean isOptional()

Returns true if the compare criteria is used as join criteria, but not needed during processing.

Returns:

getIsOptional

public Boolean getIsOptional()

acceptVisitor

public void acceptVisitor(LanguageVisitor visitor)

Description copied from interface: LanguageObject

Method for accepting a visitor. It is the responsibility of the language object to call back on the visitor.

Specified by:

acceptVisitor in interface LanguageObject

Parameters:

visitor - Visitor being used

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Get hash code. WARNING: The hash code is based on data in the criteria. If data values are changed, the hash code will change - don't hash this object and change values.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

Hash code

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Override equals() method.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

obj - Other object

Returns:

true if objects are equivalent

clone

public Object clone()

Deep copy of object

Specified by:

clone in interface LanguageObject

Specified by:

clone in class PredicateCriteria

Returns:

Deep copy of object
