All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

Enclosing class:

Restriction

public static class Restriction.ColumnQualifier
extends Restriction

A simple comparison of a column to a constant value. The comparison has the form:

 column OP constant
 

where OP is one of the following:

  <     =     <=     >      >=    IS NULL    IS NOT NULL

Constructor Detail

Restriction.ColumnQualifier

public Restriction.ColumnQualifier(java.lang.String columnName,
                                   int comparisonOperator,
                                   java.lang.Object constantOperand)

Construct from pieces.

Parameters:

columnName - Name of column as declared in the CREATE FUNCTION statement.

comparisonOperator - One of the ORDER_OP constants.

constantOperand - Constant value to which the column should be compared.

Method Detail

getColumnName

public java.lang.String getColumnName()

The name of the column being compared.

getComparisonOperator

public int getComparisonOperator()

The type of comparison to perform. This is one of the ORDER_OP constants defined above.

getConstantOperand

public java.lang.Object getConstantOperand()

Get the constant value to which the column should be compared. The constant value must be an Object of the Java type which corresponds to the SQL type of the column. The column's SQL type was declared in the CREATE FUNCTION statement. The mapping of SQL types to Java types is defined in table 4 of chapter 14 of the original JDBC 1 specification (dated 1996). Bascially, these are the Java wrapper values you would expect. For instance, SQL INT maps to java.lang.Integer, SQL CHAR maps to java.lang.String, etc.. This object will be null if the comparison operator is ORDER_OP_ISNULL or ORDER_OP_ISNOTNULL.

toSQL

public java.lang.String toSQL()

Description copied from class: Restriction

Turn this Restriction into a string suitable for use in a WHERE clause.
