/**
 * 

* 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. *

* 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); *
*
