Method Details
-
getAtomicComparer
AtomicComparer getAtomicComparer()Get the AtomicComparer used to compare atomic values. This encapsulates any collation that is used -
getSingletonOperator
int getSingletonOperator()Get the primitive (singleton) operator used: one of Token.FEQ, Token.FNE, Token.FLT, Token.FGT, Token.FLE, Token.FGE -
getOperands
Expression[] getOperands()Get the two operands of the comparison -
convertsUntypedToOther
boolean convertsUntypedToOther()Determine whether untyped atomic values should be converted to the type of the other operand- Returns:
- true if untyped values should be converted to the type of the other operand, false if they should be converted to strings.
