WhereVisitor
Overview
This class represents the implementation of Visitor patterns and sets the strategy of traversal for the WhereExpression tree.
It is the base class and as such contains basic rules of visiting objects, which may compose a tree. Separate concrete visitor classes derived from it can perform some particular operations, by implementing these operations in their respective Visit methods.

WhereVisitor()
Sub New()
Visit protected
Calls the appropriate VisitXXX method depending on the type of the given WhereExpression.
method Visit(expression: WhereExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression Visit(WhereExpression expression)
Function Visit(expression As WhereExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitBetween protected
Defines the base rule of traversal for BetweenExpression. First, it visits Expression, then Lower Expression and finally Upper Expression. If parts of BetweenExpression were changed during visits, a new BetweenExpression, containing the new parts, will be obtained as a result.
method VisitBetween(expression: BetweenExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitBetween(BetweenExpression expression)
Function VisitBetween(expression As BetweenExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitBinary protected
Defines the base rule of traversal for BinaryExpression. First, it visits Left Expression, then Right Expression. If parts of BinaryExpression were changed during visits, a new BinaryExpression, containing the new parts, will be obtained.
method VisitBinary(expression: BinaryExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitBinary(BinaryExpression expression)
Function VisitBinary(expression As BinaryExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitConstant protected
Defines the base rule of traversal for ConstantExpressions. Since ConstantExpressions can't consist of other expressions (it's the final object in the WhereExpression tree), this method returns the given ConstantExpression.
method VisitConstant(expression: ConstantExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitConstant(ConstantExpression expression)
Function VisitConstant(expression As ConstantExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitDateTimeNow protected
method VisitDateTimeNow(expression: DateTimeNowExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitDateTimeNow(DateTimeNowExpression expression)
Function VisitDateTimeNow(expression As DateTimeNowExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitDateTimePart protected
method VisitDateTimePart(expression: DateTimePartExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitDateTimePart(DateTimePartExpression expression)
Function VisitDateTimePart(expression As DateTimePartExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitDateTimeToday protected
method VisitDateTimeToday(expression: DateTimeTodayExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitDateTimeToday(DateTimeTodayExpression expression)
Function VisitDateTimeToday(expression As DateTimeTodayExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitField protected
Defines the base rule of traversal for FieldExpressions. Since FieldExpressions can't consist of other expressions (it's the final object in the WhereExpression tree), this method returns the given FieldExpression.
method VisitField(expression: FieldExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitField(FieldExpression expression)
Function VisitField(expression As FieldExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitFunctionCall protected
method VisitFunctionCall(expression: FunctionCallExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitFunctionCall(FunctionCallExpression expression)
Function VisitFunctionCall(expression As FunctionCallExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitList protected
Defines the base rule of traversal for ListExpressions. This method goes through the list and visits every expression on it. If at least one expression on the list was changed during the visit, a new ListExpression, containing the changed items, will be obtained as a result.
method VisitList(expression: ListExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitList(ListExpression expression)
Function VisitList(expression As ListExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitMacro protected
Defines the base rule of traversal for MacroExpressions. This method goes through the items list and visits every expression on it. If at least one expression on the list was changed during the visit, a new MacroExpression, containing the changed items, will be obtained as a result.
method VisitMacro(expression: MacroExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitMacro(MacroExpression expression)
Function VisitMacro(expression As MacroExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitNull protected
Defines the base rule of traversal for NullExpressions. Since NullExpression can't consist of other expressions, this method returns the given expression.
method VisitNull(expression: NullExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitNull(NullExpression expression)
Function VisitNull(expression As NullExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitParameter protected
Defines the base rule of traversal for ParameterExpressions. Since ParameterExpression can't consist of other expressions (it's the final object in the WhereExpression tree), this method returns the given ParameterExpression.
method VisitParameter(expression: ParameterExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitParameter(ParameterExpression expression)
Function VisitParameter(expression As ParameterExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
VisitUnary protected
Defines the base rule of traversal for UnaryExpression. It visits Expression, contained in the given UnaryExpression. If it is changed during the visit, a new UnaryExpression, containing the changed Expression, will be created.
method VisitUnary(expression: UnaryExpression): WhereExpression
WhereExpression VisitUnary(UnaryExpression expression)
Function VisitUnary(expression As UnaryExpression) As WhereExpression
Parameters:
- expression:
