    • _supportsOrderByNullsLast

      public boolean _supportsOrderByNullsLast()
    • requiresOrderByAlias

      public boolean requiresOrderByAlias()
      Description copied from interface: Dialect
      Returns true if this Dialect can include expressions in the ORDER BY clause only by adding an expression to the SELECT clause and using its alias.

      For example, in such a dialect,

      SELECT x FROM t ORDER BY x + y
      would be illegal, but
      SELECT x, x + y AS z FROM t ORDER BY z
      would be legal.

      MySQL, DB2 and Ingres are examples of such dialects.

      Specified by:
      requiresOrderByAlias in interface Dialect
      Overrides:
      requiresOrderByAlias in class JdbcDialectImpl
      Returns:
      Whether this Dialect can include expressions in the ORDER BY clause only by adding an expression to the SELECT clause and using its alias
    • requiresAliasForFromQuery

      public boolean requiresAliasForFromQuery()
      Description copied from interface: Dialect
      Returns whether this Dialect requires subqueries in the FROM clause to have an alias.
      Specified by:
      requiresAliasForFromQuery in interface Dialect
      Overrides:
      requiresAliasForFromQuery in class JdbcDialectImpl
      Returns:

      public boolean allowsDdl()
      Description copied from interface: Dialect
      Returns whether this dialect supports common SQL Data Definition Language (DDL) statements such as CREATE TABLE and DROP INDEX.

      Access seems to allow DDL iff the .mdb file is writeable.

      Specified by:
      allowsDdl in interface Dialect
      Overrides:
      allowsDdl in class JdbcDialectImpl
      Returns:

      public boolean supportsGroupByExpressions()
      Description copied from interface: Dialect
      Returns whether this Dialect supports expressions in the GROUP BY clause. Derby/Cloudscape and Infobright do not.
      Specified by:
      supportsGroupByExpressions in interface Dialect
      Overrides:
      supportsGroupByExpressions in class JdbcDialectImpl
      Returns:
      Whether this Dialect allows expressions in the GROUP BY clause
    • generateInline

      public String generateInline(List<String> columnNames, List<String> columnTypes, List<String[]> valueList)
      Description copied from interface: Dialect
      Generates a SQL statement to represent an inline dataset.

      For example, for Oracle, generates

       SELECT 1 AS FOO, 'a' AS BAR FROM dual
       UNION ALL
       SELECT 2 AS FOO, 'b' AS BAR FROM dual
       

      For ANSI SQL, generates:

       VALUES (1, 'a'), (2, 'b')
       
      Specified by:
      generateInline in interface Dialect
      Overrides:
      generateInline in class JdbcDialectImpl
      Parameters:
      columnNames - List of column names
      columnTypes - List of column types ("String" or "Numeric")
      valueList - List of rows values
      Returns:
