public class ComparisonExpressionStateObject extends CompoundExpressionStateObject
There is one exception to this rule: it is valid to compare numeric values for which the rules of numeric promotion apply. Conditional expressions attempting to compare non-like type values are disallowed except for this numeric case.
Note that the arithmetic operators and comparison operators are permitted to be applied to state-fields and input parameters of the wrapped Java class equivalents to the primitive numeric Java types. Two entities of the same abstract schema type are equal if and only if they have the same primary key value. Only equality/inequality comparisons over enumeration constants are required to be supported.

void |
accept(StateObjectVisitor visitor)
Visits this
StateObject by the given visitor. |
ComparisonExpression |
getExpression()
Returns the actual parsed object if this
StateObject representation of the JPQL query
was created by parsing an existing JPQL query. |
java.lang.String |
getIdentifier()
Returns the identifier joining the two
StateObjects. |
protected java.lang.String |
getLeftQueryBNFId()
Returns the unique identifier of the BNF that will be used to parse a JPQL fragment as the
left side of the expression.
|
protected java.lang.String |
getRightQueryBNFId()
Returns the unique identifier of the BNF that will be used to parse a JPQL fragment as the
right side of the expression.

boolean |
isEquivalent(StateObject stateObject)
Determines whether the given
StateObject is equivalent to this one, i.e. the
information of both StateObject is the same. |
void |
setExpression(ComparisonExpression expression)
Keeps a reference of the
parsed object object, which should only
be done when this object is instantiated during the conversion of a parsed JPQL query into
StateObjects. |
