QuerySpec Methods

The QuerySpec type exposes the following members.

Methods
  NameDescription
Protected methodAddAsRelation
Prepares the implementor by converting it to a relation object and adds it to the passed in relationcollection.
Protected methodAddFieldToProjectionIfNotPresent
Adds the field to projection if not present already. Uses field alias checks. If this query is an entity query, it won't add any fields, only verify whether the field is present.
Protected methodAddFromClauseDirective
Adds from clause directive.
Protected methodAddFromClauseDirectives
Adds from clause directives.
Protected methodAppendToPreparedWhereClauseWithAnd
Appends the predicate with And to the prepared where clause. Only used for appending additional filters to specified filters.
Protected methodAppendUnionedQueriesToDerivedTable
Converts all unioned queries to derived tables and appends them as unioned queries to the derived table specified.
Protected methodAssureAlias
Assures that the query has a proper alias. This is necessary for derived table generation, as derived tables need an alias.
Protected methodCoerceToScalarQuery
Coerces this query to a scalar query expression
Protected methodConvertToDynamicRelationOperand
Converts this instance to a dynamic relation operand.
Protected methodDetermineIfDerivedTableIsTargetInFieldCompareSetPredicate
Determines if the derived table variant of this query is the target when this query is used as the target of a field compare set predicate. Only true if query is an entity query and entity is an inheritance entity of TargetPerEntity.
Protected methodDetermineIfWrappingAsDerivedTableIsRequiredForScalarQuery
Determines if wrapping as derived table is required for scalar query. This overload looks at the prepared elements, and if a wrapping is required it will return true, otherwise false.
Protected methodDetermineIfWrappingAsDerivedTableIsRequiredForScalarQuery(AggregateFunction)
Determines if wrapping as derived table is required for scalar query.
Protected methodDetermineRealTargetAliasToUse
Determines the real target alias to use.
Protected methodDetermineResultsetType
Determines the type of the resultset. This type is used to build resultset instances for hierarchy fetches.
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodField
Creates a field which targets the projection of this query. Use this to easily create a derived table targeting field which targets this query.
Protected methodFinalize
Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodGetAdditionalInfoAsString
Gets the additional info as string. For ToString().
Protected methodGetAllFieldsFromProjection
Gets all fields from projection.
Protected methodGetFromAsString
Gets from as string.
Protected methodGetFromClauseDirectiveClones
Gets from clause directives as clones.
Protected methodGetGroupByAsString
Gets the group by as string.
Public methodGetHashCode
Serves as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodGetHavingAsString
Gets the having as string.
Protected methodGetOrderByAsString
Gets the order by as string.
Protected methodGetPrefetchPathAsString
Gets the prefetch path as string.
Protected methodGetProjectionAsEntityFields
Gets the projection as EntityFields object
Protected methodGetProjectionAsEntityFields2
Gets the projection as EntityFields2 object
Protected methodGetProjectionAsString
Gets the projection as string.
Protected methodGetQueryParameters
Gets the query parameters, built from the elements for the query inside this expression
Protected methodGetReplacementForQueryTarget
Gets the replacement for query target. By default this is the result of GetThisAsEmptyClone(). It will thrown an exception if the class isn't an entityquery, unless this method is overriden in a subtype.
Protected methodGetThisAsEmptyClone
Gets the this as empty clone.
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodGetWhereAsString
Gets the where as string.
Protected methodHandleUnwrapTvfCall
Handles the unwrap TVF call action.
Protected methodIsEmpty
Determines whether this instance is empty.
Protected methodMarkAsNotPrepared
Makes this query as being not prepared so it will be re-prepared the next time Prepare() is called.
Protected methodMarkAsPrepared
Marks as prepared.
Protected methodMemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodOnPreparedForExecution
Called when PrepareForExecution has been completed successfully. Calls the lambda set in OnPrepareForExecutionCallBack, if set.
Protected methodPrepare
Prepares the contents of this query to be executed.
Protected methodPrepareForExecution
Prepares this query for execution.
Protected methodRaiseQueryTargetUsageExceptionIfApplicable
Raises an exception if a QueryTarget was used in a query type which wasn't suitable for that. By default it does this
Protected methodReplacePlaceHolders
Replaces the EntityQueryPlaceHolder objects with this instance
Protected methodSetCorrelationPredicate
Sets the correlation predicate.
Protected methodSetTargetAlias
Sets the target alias.
Protected methodToDerivedTable
Converts this instance to a derived table definition.
Public methodToString
Returns a String that represents this instance.
(Overrides ObjectToString.)
Public methodToString(Int32)
Returns a String that represents this instance.
Protected methodValidateForUnion
Validates this query whether it can be a unioned query in a parent query or not. Queries which contain nested queries or prefetch paths can't be unioned.
