Interface SetJoin<Z,E>

Type Parameters:
Z - the source type of the join
E - the element type of the target Set
All Superinterfaces:
Expression<E>, FetchParent<Z,E>, From<Z,E>, Join<Z,E>, Path<E>, PluralJoin<Z,java.util.Set<E>,E>, Selection<E>, TupleElement<E>

public interface SetJoin<Z,E>
extends PluralJoin<Z,java.util.Set<E>,E>

The SetJoin interface is the type of the result of joining to a collection over an association or element collection that has been specified as a java.util.Set.

Since:
Java Persistence 2.0

Method Detail

on

SetJoin<Z,E> on(Expression<java.lang.Boolean> restriction)
Modify the join to restrict the result according to the specified ON condition. Replaces the previous ON condition, if any. Return the join object

Specified by:
on in interface Join<Z,E>
Parameters:
restriction - a simple or compound boolean expression
Returns:
the modified join object

on

SetJoin<Z,E> on(Predicate... restrictions)
Modify the join to restrict the result according to the specified ON condition. Replaces the previous ON condition, if any. Return the join object

Specified by:
on in interface Join<Z,E>
Parameters:
restrictions - zero or more restriction predicates
Returns:
the modified join object

getModel

SetAttribute<? super Z,E> getModel()
Return the metamodel representation for the set attribute.

Specified by:
getModel in interface Path<E>
Specified by:
getModel in interface PluralJoin<Z,java.util.Set<E>,E>
Returns:
metamodel type representing the Set that is the target of the join
