public class AggregateFunction extends Object implements SQLFunction

A container for classes that will generate SQL for the SQL99 Standard Aggregate functions. These can be used via the Criteria.addSelectColumn method to produce SQL statements that can be called via the BasePeerImpl.doSelect methods.

Note database servers that use non-standard function names can be supported by setting the function name in the constructor accordingly.

E.g., older MySQL servers use LEAST instead of MIN. This can be supported by supplying "LEAST" as function name.

- ## Konstruktordetails

  - ### AggregateFunction

    protected AggregateFunction(String function, Column column, boolean distinct)
    Constructor for aggregate functions.
    Parameter:
      `function` - the function name, not null or blank.
      `column` - the column to apply the function to, not null.
      `distinct` - whether to apply DISTINCT to the column.

- ## Methodendetails

  - ### getColumn

    public Column getColumn()
    Returns the column the function is applied to.
    Angegeben von:
      `getColumn` in Schnittstelle `SQLFunction`
    Gibt zurück:
      the column, not null.

  - ### setColumn

    public void setColumn(Column column)
    Sets the column the function is applied to.
    Parameter:
      `column` - the column, not null.

  - ### isDistinct

    public boolean isDistinct()
    Should the column have DISTINCT added in front of it?
    Gibt zurück:
      True if DISTINCT is needed.

  - ### getFunction

    protected String getFunction()
    Get the function name to use, e.g. AVG, MIN, LEAST.
    Gibt zurück:
      The function name.

  - ### setFunction

    public void setFunction(String function)
    Set the function name to use, e.g. AVG, MIN, LEAST.
    Parameter:
      `function` - The function name to use, not null or blank.
    Löst aus:
      `UnsupportedOperationException` - if a subclass does not support changing the function name; never thrown by this implementation.

  - ### getSqlExpression

    public String getSqlExpression()
    Generate the SQL for this function.
    Angegeben von:
      `getSqlExpression` in Schnittstelle `Column`
    Gibt zurück:
      the SQL expression for the column, not null.
    Löst aus:
      `IllegalStateException` - if the arguments are not set

  - ### getArgument

    public Object getArgument(int i)
    Beschreibung aus Schnittstelle kopiert: `SQLFunction`
    Returns the function parameters at index i. Should be null if parameter does not exist.
    Angegeben von:
      `getArgument` in Schnittstelle `SQLFunction`
    Parameter:
      `i` - The 0 based parameter to get.
    Gibt zurück:
      The parameter. Null if one does not exist.

  - ### getArguments

    public Object[] getArguments()
    Beschreibung aus Schnittstelle kopiert: `SQLFunction`
    Return all the parameters as an object array. This allow for processing of the parameters in their original format rather than just in String format. E.g. a parameter might be specified as a Date object, or a Column object.
    Angegeben von:
      `getArguments` in Schnittstelle `SQLFunction`
    Gibt zurück:
      Should return a valid Object array and not null. E.g. implementors should return new Object[0] if there are no parameters.

  - ### setArguments

    public void setArguments(Object... args)
    Assumes that there are one or two arguments being specified. The first being a column identifier, and the second being an optional boolean indicating if DISTINCT needs to be added.
    Angegeben von:
      `setArguments` in Schnittstelle `SQLFunction`
    Parameter:
      `args` - The column to apply the function to.
    Löst aus:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - If at least one argument has not been supplied or the second argument object is not Boolean.

  - ### getColumnName

    public String getColumnName()
    Returns the column name. This implementation always return null because we do not reference a real column.
    Angegeben von:
      `getColumnName` in Schnittstelle `Column`
    Gibt zurück:
      the column name, always null.

  - ### getTableName

    public String getTableName()
    Beschreibung aus Schnittstelle kopiert: `Column`
    Returns the name of the associated table (not prefixed by the schema name).
    Angegeben von:
      `getTableName` in Schnittstelle `Column`
    Gibt zurück:
      the name of the table, may be null but not blank.

  - ### getSchemaName

    public String getSchemaName()
    Beschreibung aus Schnittstelle kopiert: `Column`
    Returns the name of any fixed schema prefix for the column's table (if any).
    Angegeben von:
      `getSchemaName` in Schnittstelle `Column`
    Gibt zurück:
      the schema name, or null if the schema is not known.

  - ### getFullTableName

    public String getFullTableName()
    Beschreibung aus Schnittstelle kopiert: `Column`
    Returns the table name prefixed with the schema name if it exists. I.e. if a schema name exists, the result will be schemaName.tableName, and otherwise it will just be tableName.
    Angegeben von:
      `getFullTableName` in Schnittstelle `Column`
    Gibt zurück:
      the fully qualified table name of the column, may be null but not blank.
