All Implemented Interfaces:

EnumeratedValues.Value

public class CallingConvention

extends EnumeratedValues.BasicValue

CallingConvention enumerates allowable calling conventions.

Field Summary

static CallingConvention	ARRAY
static int	ARRAY_ORDINAL The ARRAY calling convention results in a Java expression which evaluates to an array containing the rows returned.
static CallingConvention	COLLECTION
static int	COLLECTION_ORDINAL The COLLECTION calling convention results in a Java expression which evaluates to a Collection, typically a ArrayList.
static EnumeratedValues	enumeration
static CallingConvention	ENUMERATION
static int	ENUMERATION_ORDINAL
static CallingConvention	EXISTS
static int	EXISTS_ORDINAL The EXISTS calling convention is only allowed for a terminator.
static CallingConvention	HASHTABLE
static int	HASHTABLE_ORDINAL
static CallingConvention	ITERABLE
static int	ITERABLE_ORDINAL The ITERABLE calling convention means that the expression is converted to an openjava expression (Expression) which evalutes to an object which implements Iterable.
static CallingConvention	ITERATOR
static int	ITERATOR_ORDINAL The ITERATOR calling convention means that the expression is converted to an openjava expression (Expression) which evalutes to an Iterator.
static CallingConvention	JAVA
static int	JAVA_ORDINAL The JAVA calling convention means that the expression is converted into an Openjava parse tree, which can then be un-parsed, compiled, and executed as java code.
static CallingConvention	MAP
static int	MAP_ORDINAL
static CallingConvention[]	noConventions
static CallingConvention	NONE
static int	NONE_ORDINAL The NONE calling convention means that expression does not support any calling convention -- in other words, it is not implementable, and has to be transformed to something else in order to be implemented.
static CallingConvention	PLAN
static int	PLAN_ORDINAL The PLAN calling convention means that the expression is converted to a Plan.
static CallingConvention	RESULT_SET
static int	RESULT_SET_ORDINAL The RESULT_SET calling convention means that the expression is a JDBC result set.
static CallingConvention[]	values
static CallingConvention	VECTOR
static int	VECTOR_ORDINAL

Field Detail

noConventions

public static final CallingConvention[] noConventions

NONE_ORDINAL

public static final int NONE_ORDINAL

The NONE calling convention means that expression does not support any calling convention -- in other words, it is not implementable, and has to be transformed to something else in order to be implemented.

Constant Field Values

NONE

public static final CallingConvention NONE

PLAN_ORDINAL

public static final int PLAN_ORDINAL

The PLAN calling convention means that the expression is converted to a Plan. (We still need to specify whether the objects returned from that plan are good after further objects have been retrieved. It makes a lot of difference when implementing a blocking expression such as an aggregation.)

See Also:

Constant Field Values

PLAN

public static final CallingConvention PLAN

JAVA_ORDINAL

public static final int JAVA_ORDINAL

The JAVA calling convention means that the expression is converted into an Openjava parse tree, which can then be un-parsed, compiled, and executed as java code.

The Rel.implement(saffron.opt.Implementor, int) method generates a piece of code which will call the piece of code corresponding to the parent once for each row:

• The parent code is generated by calling Implementor.generateParentBody(saffron.rel.Rel, openjava.ptree.StatementList), which in turn calls Rel.implement(saffron.opt.Implementor, int)() on the parent.
• The code is generated into the current block (gleaned from Implementor.getStatementList()).

Constant Field Values

JAVA

public static final CallingConvention JAVA

ITERATOR_ORDINAL

public static final int ITERATOR_ORDINAL

The ITERATOR calling convention means that the expression is converted to an openjava expression (Expression) which evalutes to an Iterator. See Converter.

See Also:

Constant Field Values

ITERATOR

public static final CallingConvention ITERATOR

ARRAY_ORDINAL

public static final int ARRAY_ORDINAL

The ARRAY calling convention results in a Java expression which evaluates to an array containing the rows returned. Compare with JAVA_ORDINAL, where a loop does something for each row returned).

Constant Field Values

ARRAY

public static final CallingConvention ARRAY

COLLECTION_ORDINAL

public static final int COLLECTION_ORDINAL

The COLLECTION calling convention results in a Java expression which evaluates to a Collection, typically a ArrayList.

Constant Field Values

COLLECTION

public static final CallingConvention COLLECTION

VECTOR_ORDINAL

public static final int VECTOR_ORDINAL

See Also:

Constant Field Values

VECTOR

public static final CallingConvention VECTOR

ENUMERATION_ORDINAL

public static final int ENUMERATION_ORDINAL

See Also:

Constant Field Values

ENUMERATION

public static final CallingConvention ENUMERATION

MAP_ORDINAL

public static final int MAP_ORDINAL

See Also:

Constant Field Values

MAP

public static final CallingConvention MAP

HASHTABLE_ORDINAL

public static final int HASHTABLE_ORDINAL

See Also:

Constant Field Values

HASHTABLE

public static final CallingConvention HASHTABLE

ITERABLE_ORDINAL

public static final int ITERABLE_ORDINAL

The ITERABLE calling convention means that the expression is converted to an openjava expression (Expression) which evalutes to an object which implements Iterable.

See Also:

Constant Field Values

ITERABLE

public static final CallingConvention ITERABLE

EXISTS_ORDINAL

public static final int EXISTS_ORDINAL

The EXISTS calling convention is only allowed for a terminator.

See Also:

Constant Field Values

EXISTS

public static final CallingConvention EXISTS

RESULT_SET_ORDINAL

public static final int RESULT_SET_ORDINAL

The RESULT_SET calling convention means that the expression is a JDBC result set. When a result set is converted to another convention such as array or iterator, the default object type is Row.

RESULT_SET

public static final CallingConvention RESULT_SET

values

public static final CallingConvention[] values

public static final EnumeratedValues enumeration
