SelectNode

public class SelectNode extends QueryNode
INTERNAL

Purpose: Represent a SELECT

Responsibilities:

  • Hold the distinct status
  • Modify a query based on the contents The SELECT statement determines the return type of an EJBQL query. The SELECT may also determine the distinct state of a query A SELECT can be one of the following: 1. SELECT OBJECT(someObject)... This query will return a collection of objects 2. SELECT anObject.anAttribute ... This will return a collection of anAttribute 3. SELECT <aggregateFunction> ... This will return a single value The allowable aggregateFunctions are: AVG, COUNT, MAX, MIN, SUM SELECT AVG(emp.salary)... Returns the average of all the employees salaries SELECT COUNT(emp)... Returns a count of the employees SELECT COUNT(emp.firstName)... Returns a count of the employee's firstNames SELECT MAX(emp.salary)... Returns the maximum employee salary SELECT MIN(emp.salary)... Returns the minimum employee salary SELECT SUM(emp.salary)... Returns the sum of all the employees salaries
