/**
*
* Purpose: Define an object-level representation of a database query where clause.
*
* Description: An expression is a tree-like structure that defines the selection
* criteria for a query against objects in the database. The expression has the advantage
* over SQL by being at the object-level, i.e. the object model attributes and relationships
* can be used to be query on instead of the database field names.
* Because it is an object, not a string the expression has the advantage that is can be
* easily manipulated through code to easily build complex selection criterias.
*
* Responsibilities:
*
* - Store the selection criteria in a tree-like structure.
*
- Support public manipulation protocols for all comparison and function opperators.
*
- Use opperator overloading to support all primitive types as well as objects.

* PUBLIC: Returns an expression equivalent to all of attributeName
* holding true for criteria
.
*
* For every expression with an anyOf, its negation has either an allOf or a
* noneOf. The following two examples will illustrate as the second is the
* negation of the first:
*
* AnyOf Example: Employees with a non '613' area code phone number.
*
* ReadAllQuery query = new ReadAllQuery(Employee.class);
* ExpressionBuilder employee = new ExpressionBuilder();
* Expression exp = employee.anyOf("phoneNumbers").get("areaCode").notEqual("613");
*
*
* AllOf Example: Employees with all '613' area code phone numbers.
*
* ExpressionBuilder employee = new ExpressionBuilder();
* ExpressionBuilder phones = new ExpressionBuilder();
* Expression exp = employee.allOf("phoneNumbers", phones.get("areaCode").equal("613"));
* SQL:
* SELECT ... EMPLOYEE t0 WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT ... PHONE t1 WHERE
* (t0.EMP_ID = t1.EMP_ID) AND NOT (t1.AREACODE = '613'))
*
*
* allOf is the universal counterpart to the existential anyOf. To have the
* condition evaluated for each instance it must be put inside of a subquery,
* which can be expressed as not exists (any of attributeName some condition).
* (All x such that y = !Exist x such that !y).
*
Likewise the syntax employee.allOf("phoneNumbers").get("areaCode").equal("613")
* is not supported for the equal
must go inside a subQuery.
*
* This method saves you from writing the sub query yourself. The above is
* equivalent to the following expression:
*
* ExpressionBuilder employee = new ExpressionBuilder();
* ExpressionBuilder phone = new ExpressionBuilder();
* ReportQuery subQuery = new ReportQuery(Phone.class, phone);
* subQuery.retreivePrimaryKeys();
* subQuery.setSelectionCriteria(phone.equal(employee.anyOf("phoneNumbers").and(
* phone.get("areaCode").notEqual("613")));
* Expression exp = employee.notExists(subQuery);
*
*
* Note if employee has no phone numbers allOf ~ noneOf.
* @param criteria must have its own builder, as it will become the
* seperate selection criteria of a subQuery.
* @return a notExists subQuery expression
