Modifier and Type	Method and Description
boolean	equalsNode(ExprNode node, boolean ignoreStreamPrefix) Return true if a expression node semantically equals the current node, or false if not.

boolean	isConstantResult() Returns true if the expression node's evaluation value doesn't depend on any events data, as must be determined at validation time, which is bottom-up and therefore reliably allows each node to determine constant value.

Constructor Detail

ExprLikeNode

public ExprLikeNode(boolean not)

Ctor.

Parameters:

not - is true if this is a "not like", or false if just a like

Method Detail

getEvaluationType

public Class getEvaluationType()

getExprEvaluator

public ExprEvaluator getExprEvaluator()

getForge

public ExprForge getForge()

validate

public ExprNode validate(ExprValidationContext validationContext)
                  throws ExprValidationException

Throws:

ExprValidationException

getType

public Class getType()

isConstantResult

public boolean isConstantResult()

Description copied from interface: ExprNode

Returns true if the expression node's evaluation value doesn't depend on any events data, as must be determined at validation time, which is bottom-up and therefore reliably allows each node to determine constant value.

Returns:

true for constant evaluation value, false for non-constant evaluation value

equalsNode

public boolean equalsNode(ExprNode node,
                          boolean ignoreStreamPrefix)

Description copied from interface: ExprNode

Return true if a expression node semantically equals the current node, or false if not.

Concrete implementations should compare the type and any additional information that impact the evaluation of a node.

Parameters:

node - to compare to

ignoreStreamPrefix - when the equals-comparison can ignore prefix of event properties

Returns:

true if semantically equal, or false if not equals

toPrecedenceFreeEPL

public void toPrecedenceFreeEPL(StringWriter writer)

Specified by:

toPrecedenceFreeEPL in class ExprNodeBase

getPrecedence

public ExprPrecedenceEnum getPrecedence()

Description copied from interface: ExprNode

Returns precedence.

Returns:

precedence

isNot

public boolean isNot()

Returns true if this is a "not like", or false if just a like

Returns:

indicator whether negated or not
