public interface Criteria
extends org.refcodes.mixin.NameAccessor
The
Criteria itself is the base definition of
functionality which the CriteriaNode and
CriteriaLeaf implementations are to support.
Mainly, a Criteria is to have a name (for
example "AND", "OR", "LESS_THAN" and so on). The
Criteria instances can either be constructed in
an object oriented manner by instantiating the various criteria classes and
nesting them according to the required query or from a
String by using the
ExpressionCriteriaFactoryImpl. On the other
hand a Criteria can be converted to a String to
be used in SQL statements by using the
ExpressionQueryFactoryImpl.- Version:
