Enum Constant Detail

SELECTLIST_PROJECTION

public static final MainCapability SELECTLIST_PROJECTION

Support projections, i.e. request only a subset of all columns of the table.

Example: SELECT a FROM t;

SELECTLIST_EXPRESSIONS

public static final MainCapability SELECTLIST_EXPRESSIONS

Support expressions in the select list; Additional capabilities are required depending on the expression.

Example: SELECT a+1, ucase(b) FROM t;

FILTER_EXPRESSIONS

public static final MainCapability FILTER_EXPRESSIONS

Support filter expressions. Additional capabilities are required depending on the expression.

Example: SELECT * FROM t WHERE a>2

AGGREGATE_SINGLE_GROUP

public static final MainCapability AGGREGATE_SINGLE_GROUP

Support aggregations with a single group. This happens when an aggregation-function is used without a group by clause.

Example: SELECT min(a) FROM t;

AGGREGATE_GROUP_BY_COLUMN

public static final MainCapability AGGREGATE_GROUP_BY_COLUMN

Support aggregations with a group by clause consisting of columns.

Example: SELECT a, b, min(c) FROM t GROUP BY a, b;

AGGREGATE_GROUP_BY_EXPRESSION

public static final MainCapability AGGREGATE_GROUP_BY_EXPRESSION

Support aggregations with a group by clause that contains expressions.

Example: SELECT a+1, min(b) FROM t GROUP BY a+1;

AGGREGATE_GROUP_BY_TUPLE

public static final MainCapability AGGREGATE_GROUP_BY_TUPLE

Support aggregations with a group by clause with multiple group by columns or expressions. Note that you might additionally require AGGREGATE_GROUP_BY_EXPRESSION or AGGREGATE_GROUP_BY_COLUMN.

Example: SELECT a, b, min(c) FROM t GROUP BY a, b;

AGGREGATE_HAVING

public static final MainCapability AGGREGATE_HAVING

Support aggregations with a having clause. Additional capabilities might be required depending on the expression.

Example: SELECT a, min(b) FROM t GROUP BY a HAVING min(b)>10;

ORDER_BY_COLUMN

public static final MainCapability ORDER_BY_COLUMN

Support to order the result by columns.

Attention: This includes the capability to specify NULLS FIRST/LAST and ASC/DESC.

Example: SELECT a, b FROM t ORDER BY a, b DESC NULLS FIRST;

ORDER_BY_EXPRESSION

public static final MainCapability ORDER_BY_EXPRESSION

Support to order the result by expressions.

Attention: This includes the capability to specify NULLS FIRST/LAST and ASC/DESC

Example: SELECT a FROM t ORDER BY abs(a) ASC NULLS LAST;

LIMIT

public static final MainCapability LIMIT

Support to limit the number of result rows. Often used together with ordering.

Example: SELECT * FROM t 0

LIMIT_WITH_OFFSET

public static final MainCapability LIMIT_WITH_OFFSET

Support to limit the number of result rows including an offset.

Example: SELECT * FROM t LIMIT 100 OFFSET 10;

Method Detail

values

public static MainCapability[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (MainCapability c : MainCapability.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static MainCapability valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
