Parameters:

index -

Returns:

getThen

public List getThen()

Returns:

setThen

protected void setThen(List then)

Sets the List of THEN expressions in this CASE expression

Parameters:

then -

getElseExpression

public Expression getElseExpression()

Gets the expression in the ELSE part of this expression. May be null as the ELSE is optional.
