Method Detail

supportsSequences

public boolean supportsSequences()

Description copied from class: Dialect

Does this dialect support sequences?

Overrides:

supportsSequences in class DB2Dialect

Returns:

True if sequences supported; false otherwise.

getIdentitySelectString

public String getIdentitySelectString()

Description copied from class: Dialect

Get the select command to use to retrieve the last generated IDENTITY value.

Overrides:

getIdentitySelectString in class DB2Dialect

Returns:

The appropriate select command

supportsLimit

public boolean supportsLimit()

Description copied from class: Dialect

Does this dialect support some form of limiting query results via a SQL clause?

Overrides:

supportsLimit in class DB2Dialect

Returns:

True if this dialect supports some form of LIMIT.

supportsLimitOffset

public boolean supportsLimitOffset()

Description copied from class: Dialect

Does this dialect's LIMIT support (if any) additionally support specifying an offset?

Overrides:

supportsLimitOffset in class Dialect

Returns:

True if the dialect supports an offset within the limit support.

getLimitString

public String getLimitString(String sql,
                             int offset,
                             int limit)

Description copied from class: Dialect

Given a limit and an offset, apply the limit clause to the query.

Overrides:

getLimitString in class Dialect

Parameters:

sql - The query to which to apply the limit.

offset - The offset of the limit

limit - The limit of the limit ;)

Returns:

The modified query statement with the limit applied.

useMaxForLimit

public boolean useMaxForLimit()

Description copied from class: Dialect

Does the LIMIT clause take a "maximum" row number instead of a total number of returned rows?

This is easiest understood via an example. Consider you have a table with 20 rows, but you only want to retrieve rows number 11 through 20. Generally, a limit with offset would say that the offset = 11 and the limit = 10 (we only want 10 rows at a time); this is specifying the total number of returned rows. Some dialects require that we instead specify offset = 11 and limit = 20, where 20 is the "last" row we want relative to offset (i.e. total number of rows = 20 - 11 = 9)

So essentially, is limit relative from offset? Or is limit absolute?

Overrides:

useMaxForLimit in class DB2Dialect

Returns:

True if limit is relative from offset; false otherwise.

supportsVariableLimit

public boolean supportsVariableLimit()

Description copied from class: Dialect

Does this dialect support bind variables (i.e., prepared statememnt parameters) for its limit/offset?

Overrides:

supportsVariableLimit in class Dialect

Returns:

True if bind variables can be used; false otherwise.
