Constructor Detail

FreeformQuery

@Deprecated
public FreeformQuery(String queryString,
                                List<String> primaryKeyColumns,
                                JDBCConnectionPool connectionPool)

Deprecated. @see FreeformQuery(String, JDBCConnectionPool, String...)

Creates a new freeform query delegate to be used with the SQLContainer.

Parameters:

queryString - The actual query to perform.

primaryKeyColumns - The primary key columns. Read-only mode is forced if this parameter is null or empty.

connectionPool - the JDBCConnectionPool to use to open connections to the SQL database.

FreeformQuery

public FreeformQuery(String queryString,
                     JDBCConnectionPool connectionPool,
                     String... primaryKeyColumns)

Creates a new freeform query delegate to be used with the SQLContainer.

Parameters:

queryString - The actual query to perform.

connectionPool - the JDBCConnectionPool to use to open connections to the SQL database.

primaryKeyColumns - The primary key columns. Read-only mode is forced if none are provided. (optional)

Method Detail

getCount

public int getCount()
             throws SQLException

This implementation of getCount() actually fetches all records from the database, which might be a performance issue. Override this method with a SELECT COUNT(*) ... query if this is too slow for your needs. Generates and executes a query to determine the current row count from the DB. Row count will be fetched using filters that are currently set to the QueryDelegate.

Specified by:

getCount in interface QueryDelegate

Returns:

row count

Throws:

SQLException

getResults

public ResultSet getResults(int offset,
                            int pagelength)
                     throws SQLException

Fetches the results for the query. This implementation always fetches the entire record set, ignoring the offset and page length parameters. In order to support lazy loading of records, you must supply a FreeformQueryDelegate that implements the FreeformQueryDelegate.getQueryString(int,int) method.

Specified by:

getResults in interface QueryDelegate

Parameters:

offset - the first item of the page to load

pagelength - the length of the page to load

Returns:

a ResultSet containing the rows of the page

Throws:

SQLException

See Also:

FreeformQueryDelegate.getQueryString(int, int)

implementationRespectsPagingLimits

public boolean implementationRespectsPagingLimits()

Description copied from interface: QueryDelegate

Allows the SQLContainer implementation to check whether the QueryDelegate implementation implements paging in the getResults method.

Specified by:

implementationRespectsPagingLimits in interface QueryDelegate

Returns:

true if the delegate implements paging

See Also:

QueryDelegate.getResults(int, int)

setFilters

public void setFilters(List<Container.Filter> filters)
                throws UnsupportedOperationException

Description copied from interface: QueryDelegate

Sets the filters to apply when performing the SQL query. These are translated into a WHERE clause. Default filtering mode will be used.

Specified by:

setFilters in interface QueryDelegate

Parameters:

filters - The filters to apply.

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the implementation doesn't support filtering.

setOrderBy

public void setOrderBy(List<OrderBy> orderBys)
                throws UnsupportedOperationException

Description copied from interface: QueryDelegate

Sets the order in which to retrieve rows from the database. The result can be ordered by zero or more columns and each column can be in ascending or descending order. These are translated into an ORDER BY clause in the SQL query.

Specified by:

setOrderBy in interface QueryDelegate

Parameters:

orderBys - A list of the OrderBy conditions.

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the implementation doesn't support ordering.

storeRow

public int storeRow(RowItem row)
             throws SQLException

Description copied from interface: QueryDelegate

Stores a row in the database. The implementation of this interface decides how to identify whether to store a new row or update an existing one.

Specified by:

storeRow in interface QueryDelegate

Returns:

the number of affected rows in the database table

Throws:

SQLException

removeRow

public boolean removeRow(RowItem row)
                  throws SQLException

Description copied from interface: QueryDelegate

Removes the given RowItem from the database.

Specified by:

removeRow in interface QueryDelegate

Parameters:

row - RowItem to be removed

Returns:

true on success

Throws:

SQLException

beginTransaction

public void beginTransaction()
                      throws UnsupportedOperationException,
                             SQLException

Description copied from interface: QueryDelegate

Starts a new database transaction. Used when storing multiple changes. Note that if a transaction is already open, it will be rolled back when a new transaction is started.

Specified by:

beginTransaction in interface QueryDelegate

Throws:

SQLException - if the database access fails.

UnsupportedOperationException

commit

public void commit()
            throws UnsupportedOperationException,
                   SQLException

Description copied from interface: QueryDelegate

Commits a transaction. If a transaction is not open nothing should happen.

Specified by:

commit in interface QueryDelegate

Throws:

SQLException - if the database access fails.

UnsupportedOperationException

rollback

public void rollback()
              throws UnsupportedOperationException,
                     SQLException

Description copied from interface: QueryDelegate

Rolls a transaction back. If a transaction is not open nothing should happen.

Specified by:

rollback in interface QueryDelegate

Throws:

SQLException - if the database access fails.

UnsupportedOperationException

getPrimaryKeyColumns

public List<String> getPrimaryKeyColumns()

Description copied from interface: QueryDelegate

Returns a list of primary key column names. The list is either fetched from the database (TableQuery) or given as an argument depending on implementation.

Specified by:

getPrimaryKeyColumns in interface QueryDelegate

Returns:

getQueryString

public String getQueryString()

getDelegate

public FreeformQueryDelegate getDelegate()

setDelegate

public void setDelegate(FreeformQueryDelegate delegate)

containsRowWithKey

public boolean containsRowWithKey(Object... keys)
                           throws SQLException

This implementation of the containsRowWithKey method rewrites existing WHERE clauses in the query string. The logic is, however, not very complex and some times can do the Wrong Thing^TM. For the situations where this logic is not enough, you can implement the getContainsRowQueryString method in FreeformQueryDelegate and this will be used instead of the logic.

Specified by:

containsRowWithKey in interface QueryDelegate

Parameters:

keys - the primary keys

Returns:

true if the SQL table contains a row with the provided keys

Throws:

SQLException

FreeformQueryDelegate.getContainsRowQueryString(Object...)
