Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
ANTI	Anti-join (also known as Anti-semi-join).
FULL	Full-outer join.
INNER	Inner join.
LEFT	Left-outer join.
RIGHT	Right-outer join.
SEMI	Semi-join.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
boolean	generatesNullsOnLeft()	Returns whether a join of this type may generate NULL values on the left-hand side.
boolean	generatesNullsOnRight()	Returns whether a join of this type may generate NULL values on the right-hand side.
static JoinType	valueOf(String name)	Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
static JoinType[]	values()	Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Enum Constant Details

INNER

public static final JoinType INNER

Inner join.

LEFT

public static final JoinType LEFT

Left-outer join.

RIGHT

public static final JoinType RIGHT

Right-outer join.

FULL

public static final JoinType FULL

Full-outer join.

SEMI

public static final JoinType SEMI

Semi-join.

For example, EMP semi-join DEPT finds all EMP records that have a corresponding DEPT record:

 SELECT * FROM EMP
 WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM DEPT
     WHERE DEPT.DEPTNO = EMP.DEPTNO)

ANTI

public static final JoinType ANTI

Anti-join (also known as Anti-semi-join).

For example, EMP anti-join DEPT finds all EMP records that do not have a corresponding DEPT record:

 SELECT * FROM EMP
 WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM DEPT
     WHERE DEPT.DEPTNO = EMP.DEPTNO)

Method Details

values

public static JoinType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static JoinType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

generatesNullsOnRight

public boolean generatesNullsOnRight()

Returns whether a join of this type may generate NULL values on the right-hand side.

generatesNullsOnLeft

public boolean generatesNullsOnLeft()

Returns whether a join of this type may generate NULL values on the left-hand side.
