Detailed Description

The class qString encapsulates information for comparing string values.

Only equality comparison is supported at this point. It does not ensure the names are valid in any way. When the check does happen, the left side will be checked first. If it matches the name of a ibis::column, the right side will be assumed to be the value one is trying to match. If the left side does not match any know column name, but the right side does, the right side will be assumed to name of column to be searched and the left side will be the value to search against. If neither matches the name of any column, the expression will evaluate to NULL (i.e., no hit).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ibis::qString::qString ( const char *  ls,
const char *  rs 
)

The constructor of qString.

For convenience of inputting patterns, this function allows the back slash to be used as escape characters in the second argument. It attempts to remove the back slashes before passing the second argument to later operations.

Member Function Documentation

virtual qString* ibis::qString::dup ( ) const
inlinevirtual

!< Reorder the expressions tree.

Duplicate this query expression. Return the pointer to the new object.

Reimplemented from ibis::qExpr.

void ibis::qString::getTableNames ( std::set< std::string > &  plist) const
virtual

Identify the data partitions involved in the query expression.

Return the list of data partition names in a set.

It records a '*' for the variables without explicit partition names.

Reimplemented from ibis::qExpr.

References ibis::qExpr::extractTableName().

void ibis::qString::print ( std::ostream &  out) const
virtual

Print out the node in the string form.

The short-form of the print function.

It only prints information about the current node of the query expression tree.

Reimplemented from ibis::qExpr.

virtual void ibis::qString::printFull ( std::ostream &  out) const
inlinevirtual

Print out the full expression.

The long form of the print function.

It recursively prints out the whole query expression tree, which can be quite long.

Reimplemented from ibis::qExpr.

References ibis::qExpr::print().
