Constructor Detail

SQLProjection

protected SQLProjection(String sql,
                        String[] columnAliases,
                        Type[] types)

SQLProjection

protected SQLProjection(String sql,
                        String groupBy,
                        String[] columnAliases,
                        Type[] types)

Method Detail

toSqlString

public String toSqlString(Criteria criteria,
                          int loc,
                          CriteriaQuery criteriaQuery)

Description copied from interface: Projection

Render the SQL fragment to be used in the SELECT clause.

Specified by:

toSqlString in interface Projection

Parameters:

criteria - The local criteria to which this project is attached (for resolution).

loc - The number of columns rendered in the SELECT clause before this projection. Generally speaking this is useful to ensure uniqueness of the individual columns aliases.

criteriaQuery - The overall criteria query instance.

Returns:

The SQL fragment to plug into the SELECT

toGroupSqlString

public String toGroupSqlString(Criteria criteria,
                               CriteriaQuery criteriaQuery)

Description copied from interface: Projection

Render the SQL fragment to be used in the GROUP BY clause

Specified by:

toGroupSqlString in interface Projection

Parameters:

criteria - The local criteria to which this project is attached (for resolution).

criteriaQuery - The overall criteria query instance.

Returns:

The SQL fragment to plug into the GROUP BY

getTypes

public Type[] getTypes(Criteria crit,
                       CriteriaQuery criteriaQuery)

Description copied from interface: Projection

Types returned by the rendered SQL fragment. In other words what are the types that would represent the values this projection asked to be pulled into the result set?

Specified by:

getTypes in interface Projection

Parameters:

crit - The local criteria to which this project is attached (for resolution).

criteriaQuery - The overall criteria query instance.

Returns:

The return types.

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

getAliases

public String[] getAliases()

Description copied from interface: Projection

Get the criteria-level aliases for this projection (ie. the ones that will be passed to the ResultTransformer)

Specified by:

getAliases in interface Projection

Returns:

The aliases

getColumnAliases

public String[] getColumnAliases(int loc)

Description copied from interface: Projection

Get the SQL column aliases used by this projection for the columns it writes for inclusion into the SELECT clause (Projection.toSqlString(org.hibernate.Criteria, int, org.hibernate.criterion.CriteriaQuery). Hibernate always uses column aliases to extract data from the JDBC ResultSet, so it is important that these be implemented correctly in order for Hibernate to be able to extract these val;ues correctly.

Specified by:

getColumnAliases in interface Projection

Parameters:

loc - Just as in Projection.toSqlString(org.hibernate.Criteria, int, org.hibernate.criterion.CriteriaQuery), represents the number of columns rendered prior to this projection.

Returns:

The columns aliases.

isGrouped

public boolean isGrouped()

Description copied from interface: Projection

Is this projection fragment (SELECT clause) also part of the GROUP BY

Specified by:

isGrouped in interface Projection

Returns:

True if the projection is also part of the GROUP BY; false otherwise.

getTypes

public Type[] getTypes(String alias,
                       Criteria crit,
                       CriteriaQuery criteriaQuery)

Description copied from interface: Projection

Get the return types for a particular user-visible alias.

Differs from Projection.getTypes(org.hibernate.Criteria, CriteriaQuery) in that here we are only interested in the types related to the given criteria-level alias.

Specified by:

getTypes in interface Projection

Parameters:

alias - The criteria-level alias for which to find types.

crit - The local criteria to which this project is attached (for resolution).

criteriaQuery - The overall criteria query instance.

Returns:

The return types; expected to return null if this projection does not understand this alias.

getColumnAliases

public String[] getColumnAliases(String alias,
                                 int loc)

Description copied from interface: Projection

Get the SQL column aliases used by this projection for the columns it writes for inclusion into the SELECT clause (Projection.toSqlString(org.hibernate.Criteria, int, org.hibernate.criterion.CriteriaQuery) for a particular criteria-level alias.

Specified by:

getColumnAliases in interface Projection

Parameters:

alias - The criteria-level alias

loc - Just as in Projection.toSqlString(org.hibernate.Criteria, int, org.hibernate.criterion.CriteriaQuery), represents the number of columns rendered prior to this projection.

Returns:

The columns aliases pertaining to a particular criteria-level alias; expected to return null if this projection does not understand this alias.
