escapeChar

protected char escapeChar

Method Detail

getEscapeChar

public char getEscapeChar()

This method will return an escape character for the like clause. The escape character will eventually end up in the query as ...(t0.foo LIKE ? {escape '|'}) where the pipe symbol is the escape character.

Note that having no escape character is represented as the character 0.

setEscapeChar

public void setEscapeChar(char value)

This method allows the setting of the escape character. The escape character can be used in a LIKE clause. The character 0 signifies no escape character. The escape character '?' is disallowed.

isIgnoringCase

public boolean isIgnoringCase()

Since:

4.2

matchPattern

protected boolean matchPattern(String string)

getPattern

protected Pattern getPattern()

jjtAddChild

public void jjtAddChild(Node n,
                        int i)

Description copied from interface: Node

This method tells the node to add its argument to the node's list of children.

Specified by:

jjtAddChild in interface Node

Overrides:

jjtAddChild in class SimpleNode

appendChildrenAsEJBQL

protected void appendChildrenAsEJBQL(List<Object> parameterAccumulator,
                                     Appendable out,
                                     String rootId)
                              throws IOException

Description copied from class: SimpleNode

Encodes child of this node with specified index to EJBQL

Overrides:

appendChildrenAsEJBQL in class SimpleNode

Throws:

IOException
