org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.AbstractSelectClause
public abstract class AbstractSelectClause
The SELECT clause denotes the query result. More than one value may be returned from the SELECT clause of a query. The SELECT clause may contain one or more of the following elements: a single range variable or identification variable that ranges over an entity abstract schema type, a single-valued path expression, an aggregate select expression, a constructor expression.
The DISTINCT keyword is used to specify that duplicate values must be eliminated from the query result. If DISTINCT is not specified, duplicate values are not eliminated. Stand-alone identification variables in the SELECT clause may optionally be qualified by the OBJECT operator. The SELECT clause must not use the OBJECT operator to qualify path expressions.

acceptChildren(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
Visits the children of this Expression. |
protected void |
addChildrenTo(java.util.Collection<Expression> children)
Adds the children of this AbstractExpression to the given collection. |

addOrderedChildrenTo(java.util.List<Expression> children)
Adds the children of this AbstractExpression to the given list. |
CollectionExpression |
buildCollectionExpression()
Creates a new CollectionExpression that will wrap the single select item. |
JPQLQueryBNF |
findQueryBNF(Expression expression)
Retrieves the JPQLQueryBNF that represents the fragment of this Expression
that was used when parsing the given Expression. |
java.lang.String |
getActualDistinctIdentifier()
Returns the actual DISTINCT identifier found in the string representation of the JPQL query, which has the actual case that was used. |
java.lang.String |
getActualIdentifier()
Returns the actual SELECT identifier found in the string representation of the JPQL query, which has the actual case that was used. |
Expression |
getSelectExpression()
Returns the Expression representing the select items. |
boolean |
hasDistinct()
Determines whether the identifier DISTINCT was parsed or not. |
boolean |
hasSelectExpression()
Determines whether the list of select items was parsed. |
boolean |
hasSpaceAfterDistinct()
Determines whether a whitespace was parsed after DISTINCT. |
boolean |
hasSpaceAfterSelect()
Determines whether a whitespace was parsed after SELECT. |
protected void |
parse(WordParser wordParser,
boolean tolerant)
Parses the query by starting at the current position, which is part of the given WordParser. |
abstract java.lang.String |
selectItemBNF()
Returns the BNF for the list of select items to parse. |
protected boolean |
shouldSkipLiteral(AbstractExpression expression)
When parsing an invalid or incomplete query, it is possible two literals would be parsed but in some cases, a CollectionExpression should not be created and the parsing should actually stop here. |
protected void |
toParsedText(java.lang.StringBuilder writer,
boolean actual)
Generates a string representation of this Expression, including its children,
if it has any. |

public void acceptChildren(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
Expression. This method can be used to optimize traversing
the children since a new list is not created every time Expression.children() is called.
This does not traverse the Expression sub-hierarchy, use a subclass of
AbstractTraverseChildrenVisitor in order to traverse the entire sub-hierarchy.
visitor - The visitor to visit the children of this object.protected void addChildrenTo(java.util.Collection<Expression> children)
AbstractExpression to the given collection.
addChildrenTo in class AbstractExpressionchildren - The collection used to store the childrenprotected void addOrderedChildrenTo(java.util.List<Expression> children)
AbstractExpression to the given list.
addOrderedChildrenTo in class AbstractExpressionchildren - The list used to store the string representation of this AbstractExpressionpublic CollectionExpression buildCollectionExpression()
CollectionExpression that will wrap the single select item.
public JPQLQueryBNF findQueryBNF(Expression expression)
JPQLQueryBNF that represents the fragment of this Expression
that was used when parsing the given Expression.

Expression representing the select items.

protected void parse(WordParser wordParser,

WordParser.

protected void toParsedText(java.lang.StringBuilder writer,
boolean actual)
Expression, including its children,
if it has any.
toParsedText in class AbstractExpressionwriter - The buffer used to append this Expression's string representationactual - Determines whether the string representation should represent what was parsed,
i.e. include any "virtual" whitespace (such as ending whitespace) and the actual case of the
