All Implemented Interfaces:

public class CurrentRowLocationNode
extends ValueNode

The CurrentRowLocation operator is used by DELETE and UPDATE to get the RowLocation of the current row for the target table. The bind() operations for DELETE and UPDATE add a column to the target list of the SelectNode that represents the ResultSet to be deleted or updated.

Method Detail

isEquivalent

protected boolean isEquivalent(ValueNode o)

Description copied from class: ValueNode

Tests if this node is equivalent to the specified ValueNode. Two ValueNodes are considered equivalent if they will evaluate to the same value during query execution.

This method provides basic expression matching facility for the derived class of ValueNode and it is used by the language layer to compare the node structural form of the two expressions for equivalence at bind phase.

Note that it is not comparing the actual row values at runtime to produce a result; hence, when comparing SQL NULLs, they are considered to be equivalent and not unknown.

One usage case of this method in this context is to compare the select column expression against the group by expression to check if they are equivalent. e.g.:

SELECT c1+c2 FROM t1 GROUP BY c1+c2

In general, node equivalence is determined by the derived class of ValueNode. But they generally abide to the rules below:

• The two ValueNodes must be of the same node type to be considered equivalent. e.g.: CastNode vs. CastNode - equivalent (if their args also match), ColumnReference vs CastNode - not equivalent.
• If node P contains other ValueNode(s) and so on, those node(s) must also be of the same node type to be considered equivalent.
• If node P takes a parameter list, then the number of arguments and its arguments for the two nodes must also match to be considered equivalent. e.g.: CAST(c1 as INTEGER) vs CAST(c1 as SMALLINT), they are not equivalent.
• When comparing SQL NULLs in this context, they are considered to be equivalent.
• If this does not apply or it is determined that the two nodes are not equivalent then the derived class of this method should return false; otherwise, return true.

Specified by:

isEquivalent in class ValueNode

Parameters:

o - the node to compare this ValueNode against.

Returns:

true if the two nodes are equivalent, false otherwise.
