All Implemented Interfaces:

Expression, java.io.Serializable

public class CaseSwitchExpression
extends ExpressionBase

Case-expression that acts as a switch testing a value against other values.

The first child expression provides the value to switch on. The following pairs of child expressions provide the "when expression then expression" results. The last child expression provides the "else" result.

add

public CaseSwitchExpression add(Expression when,
                                Expression then)

Adds a pair of expressions representing a "when" and a "then" in the switch.

Returns:

expression

setElse

public CaseSwitchExpression setElse(Expression elseExpr)

Sets the else-part of the case-switch. This result of this expression is returned when no when-expression matched.

elseExpr - is the expression returning the no-match value

Returns:

expression

Description copied from class: ExpressionBase

Renders the expressions and all it's child expression, in full tree depth, as a string in language syntax.

Specified by:

toPrecedenceFreeEPL in class ExpressionBase

Parameters:

writer - is the output to use
