Class CompanyQuery

jobmatch.data.CompanyQuery

public final class CompanyQuery

CompanyQuery is used to query the Company table in the database.
It returns objects of type CompanyDO.

General usage:

In DODS: Create a Data Object named "Dog", and create an Attribute named "Name", and set that Attribute to "Can be queried." DODS will then generate the method DogQuery.setQueryName().

In your Business Layer, prepare the query:

             DogQuery dq = new DogQuery();
             dq.setQueryName("Rex")
             if ( Rex is a reserved name )
                 dq.requireUniqueInstance();
 

Then, get the query results one of two ways:

#1:

             String names = "";
             DogBDO[] dogs = dq.getBDOArray();
             for ( int i = 0; i < dogs.length; i++ ) {
                 names += dogs[i].getName() + " ";
             }
 

or #2:

             String names = "";
             DogBDO dog;
             while ( null != ( dog = dq.getNextBDO() ) ) {
                 names += dog.getName() + " ";
             }
 

Note: Methods getDOArray() and getNextDO() do exist, but they are not generally used in the Business or Presentation layers of an application. All access to the Data Layer (DO classes) should occur via the Business Layer (BDO classes). Only the Business Layer (BDO classes and classes extending them) should need to manipulate the Data Layer (DO classes). See also the comments in the BDO constructors.

Note: If requireUniqueInstance() was called, then getBDOArray() or getNextBDO() will throw an exception if more than one "Rex" was found.

Note: Results of the query will come from the Data Object cache if: - The cache is available. - Matches were found in the cache. - No other tables (Data Objects of other types) were involved in the query. This can happen if you extend the DogQuery class and you make calls to the QueryBuilder object to add SQL involving other tables. If any of these conditions is not true, then any results from the query will come from the database.

To reuse the query object, call:

             dq.reset();

executeQuery

public ResultSet executeQuery(jobmatch.data.DBConnection conn)
                       throws SQLException

Method to query objects from the database. The following call in runQuery() dbQuery.query( this ); causes the dbQuery object to invoke executeQuery()

SQLException - If a database access error occurs.

next

public Object next(ResultSet rs)
            throws SQLException,
                   jobmatch.data.ObjectIdException

WARNING! This method is disabled. It's implementation is forced by the Query interface. This method is disabled for 2 reasons: 1) the getDOArray() and getNextDO() methods are better because they return DOs instead of JDBC objects. 2) the createExisting() method throws an exception that we cannot reasonably handle here, and that we cannot throw from here.

Parameters:

rs - JDBC result set from which the next object will be instantiated.

Throws:

SQLException - If a database access error occurs.

com.lutris.appserver.server.sql.ObjectIdException - If an invalid object id was queried from the database.

getQueryBuilder

public jobmatch.data.QueryBuilder getQueryBuilder()

Returns the QueryBuilder that this CompanyQuery uses to construct and execute database queries. CompanyQuery.setQueryXXX methods use the QueryBuilder to append SQL expressions to the "WHERE" clause to be executed. The QueryBuilder.addEndClause method. can be used to append freeform SQL expressions to the WHERE clause, e.g. "ORDER BY name". Notes regarding cache-enabled DO classes: DO classes can be cache-enabled. If when using a CompanyQuery, the application developer does not call getQueryBuilder, then CompanyQuery.setQueryXXX methods simply prune the DO cache and return the remaining results. However, a QueryBuilder builds SELECT statements for execution by the actual database, and never searches the built-in cache for the DO. So, if the DO class is cache-enabled, and getQueryBuilder is called, this CompanyQuery object ignores the cache and hits the actual database.

or

public void or()

Insert an OR between WHERE clauses. Example: find all the persons named Bob or Robert: PersonQuery pq = new PersonQuery(); pq.setQueryFirstName( "Bob" ); pq.or(); pq.setQueryFirstName( "Robert" ); Note: Calls to setQueryXxx methods are implicitly ANDed together, so the following example will always return nothing: PersonQuery pq = new PersonQuery(); pq.setQueryFirstName( "Bob" ); // AND automatically inserted here. pq.setQueryFirstName( "Robert" );

See Also:

to construct more elaborate queries.

openParen

public void openParen()

Place an open parenthesis in the WHERE clause. Example usage: find all the Bobs and Roberts who are 5 or 50 years old: PersonQuery pq = new PersonQuery(); pq.openParen(); pq.setQueryFirstName( "Bob" ); pq.or(); pq.setQueryFirstName( "Robert" ); pq.closeParen(); // AND automatically inserted here. pq.openParen(); pq.setQueryAge( 5 ); pq.or(); pq.setQueryAge( 50 ); pq.closeParen();

closeParen

public void closeParen()

Place a closing parenthesis in the WHERE clause.
