Class QueryPostprocessDataContext

java.lang.Object
  org.eobjects.metamodel.AbstractDataContext
      org.eobjects.metamodel.QueryPostprocessDataContext

All Implemented Interfaces:

HasReadTypeConverters, DataContext

Direct Known Subclasses:

QueryPostprocessDelegate

public abstract class QueryPostprocessDataContext
extends AbstractDataContext
implements HasReadTypeConverters

Abstract DataContext for data sources that do not support SQL queries natively. Instead this superclass only requires that a subclass can materialize a single table at a time. Then the query will be executed by post processing the datasets client-side.

QueryPostprocessDataContext

public QueryPostprocessDataContext()

Method Detail

executeQuery

public DataSet executeQuery(Query query)

Description copied from interface: DataContext

Executes a query against the DataContext.

Specified by:

executeQuery in interface DataContext

Parameters:

query - the query object to execute

Returns:

the DataSet produced from executing the query

executeCountQuery

protected Number executeCountQuery(Table table,
                                   List<FilterItem> whereItems,
                                   boolean functionApproximationAllowed)

Executes a simple count query, if possible. This method is provided to allow subclasses to optimize count queries since they are quite common and often a datastore can retrieve the count using some specialized means which is much more performant than counting all records manually.

Parameters:

table - the table on which the count is requested.

whereItems - a (sometimes empty) list of WHERE items.

functionApproximationAllowed - whether approximation is allowed or not.

Returns:

the count of the particular table, or null if not available.

materializeFromItem

protected DataSet materializeFromItem(FromItem fromItem,
                                      List<SelectItem> selectItems)

materializeTable

protected DataSet materializeTable(Table table,
                                   List<SelectItem> selectItems,
                                   int firstRow,
                                   int maxRows)

isMainSchemaTable

protected boolean isMainSchemaTable(Table table)

getSchemaNamesInternal

protected final String[] getSchemaNamesInternal()
                                         throws MetaModelException

Description copied from class: AbstractDataContext

Gets schema names from the non-abstract implementation. These schema names will be cached except if the AbstractDataContext.refreshSchemas() method is called.

Specified by:

getSchemaNamesInternal in class AbstractDataContext

Returns:

an array of schema names.

Throws:

MetaModelException

getDefaultSchemaName

protected String getDefaultSchemaName()
                               throws MetaModelException

Description copied from class: AbstractDataContext

Gets the name of the default schema.

Specified by:

getDefaultSchemaName in class AbstractDataContext

Returns:

the default schema name.

Throws:

MetaModelException

getSchemaByNameInternal

protected final Schema getSchemaByNameInternal(String name)
                                        throws MetaModelException

Description copied from class: AbstractDataContext

Gets a specific schema from the non-abstract implementation. This schema object will be cached except if the AbstractDataContext.refreshSchemas() method is called.

Specified by:

getSchemaByNameInternal in class AbstractDataContext

Parameters:

name - the name of the schema to get

Returns:

a schema object representing the named schema, or null if no such schema exists.

Throws:

MetaModelException

getMainSchemaInternal

protected Schema getMainSchemaInternal()

addConverter

public void addConverter(Column column,
                         TypeConverter<?,?> converter)

Adds a TypeConverter to this DataContext's query engine (Query Postprocessor) for read operations. Note that this method should NOT be invoked directly by consuming code. Rather use Converters.addTypeConverter(DataContext, Column, TypeConverter) to ensure conversion on both reads and writes.

Specified by:

addConverter in interface HasReadTypeConverters

getMainSchema

protected abstract Schema getMainSchema()
                                 throws MetaModelException

Returns:

the main schema that subclasses of this class produce

Throws:

MetaModelException

getMainSchemaName

protected abstract String getMainSchemaName()
                                     throws MetaModelException

Returns:

the name of the main schema that subclasses of this class produce

Throws:

MetaModelException

materializeMainSchemaTable

protected DataSet materializeMainSchemaTable(Table table,
                                             List<SelectItem> selectItems,
                                             int firstRow,
                                             int maxRows)

Executes a simple one-table query against a table in the main schema of the subclasses of this class. This default implementation will delegate to materializeMainSchemaTable(Table, Column[], int, int).

Parameters:

table -

selectItems -

firstRow -

maxRows -

Returns:

materializeMainSchemaTable

protected DataSet materializeMainSchemaTable(Table table,
                                             Column[] columns,

                                             int maxRows)

Executes a simple one-table query against a table in the main schema of the subclasses of this class. This default implementation will delegate to materializeMainSchemaTable(Table, Column[], int) and apply a FirstRowDataSet if necessary.

Parameters:

table -

columns -

firstRow -

maxRows -

Returns:

materializeMainSchemaTable

protected abstract DataSet materializeMainSchemaTable(Table table,
                                                      Column[] columns,

Executes a simple one-table query against a table in the main schema of the subclasses of this class.

Parameters:
