/**
 * A string literal is enclosed in single quotes. For example: 'literal'. A string literal that
 * includes a single quote is represented by two single quotes. For example: 'literal''s'. String
 * literals in queries, like Java String literals, use unicode character encoding. Approximate
 * literals support the use Java floating point literal syntax as well as SQL approximate numeric
 * literal syntax. Enum literals support the use of Java enum literal syntax. The enum class name
 * must be specified. Appropriate suffixes may be used to indicate the specific type of a numeric
 * literal in accordance with the Java Language Specification. The boolean literals are TRUE
 * and FALSE. Although predefined reserved literals appear in upper case, they are case
 * insensitive.
