Method Detail

values

public static Operator[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (Operator c : Operator.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static Operator valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

comparison

public javax.jcr.query.qom.Comparison comparison(javax.jcr.query.qom.QueryObjectModelFactory factory,
                                        javax.jcr.query.qom.DynamicOperand left,
                                        javax.jcr.query.qom.StaticOperand right)
                                          throws javax.jcr.RepositoryException

Returns a comparison between the given operands using this operator.

Parameters:

factory - factory for creating the comparison

left - operand on the left hand side

right - operand on the right hand side

Returns:

comparison

Throws:

javax.jcr.RepositoryException - if the comparison can not be created

formatXpath

public String formatXpath(String a,
                 String b)

Formats an XPath constraint with this operator and the given operands. The operands are simply used as-is, without any quoting or escaping.

Parameters:

a - first operand

b - second operand

Returns:

XPath constraint, a op b or jcr:like(a, b) for LIKE

formatSql

public String formatSql(String a,
               String b)

Formats an SQL constraint with this operator and the given operands. The operands are simply used as-is, without any quoting or escaping.

Parameters:

a - first operand

b - second operand

Returns:

SQL constraint, a op b

toString

public String toString()

Returns the JCR 2.0 name of this query operator.

Overrides:

toString in class Enum<Operator>

Returns:

JCR name of this operator

QueryObjectModelConstants

getAllQueryOperators

public static String[] getAllQueryOperators()

Returns an array of the names of all the JCR 2.0 query operators.

Returns:

names of all query operators

getOperatorByName

public static Operator getOperatorByName(String name)
                                  throws javax.jcr.RepositoryException

Returns the operator with the given JCR name.

Parameters:

name - JCR name of an operator

Returns:

operator with the given name

Throws:

javax.jcr.RepositoryException - if the given name is unknown
