Method Detail

limit

AbstractQueryBuilder<ExpressionType> limit()

Adds the FETCH FIRST ROW ONLY expression for this query. The resulting LimitSpecification will have its count as null.

Returns:

This builder.

limit

AbstractQueryBuilder<ExpressionType> limit(Integer max)

Adds the FETCH FIRST <number> ROWS ONLY expression for this query. Calling this method is equivalent of calling limit(NonBooleanExpression) and passing the NumericLiteral representing the given number as the parameter.

Parameters:

max - The maximum amount of rows for this query to return. Use null to remove the FETCH FIRST <number> ROWS ONLY expression.

Returns:

This builder.

limit

AbstractQueryBuilder<ExpressionType> limit(NonBooleanExpression max)

Adds the FETCH FIRST <number> ROWS ONLY expression for this query.

Parameters:

max - The maximum amount of rows for this query to return. May be subquery or something else that evaluates to number or NULL. Use null to remove the FETCH FIRST <number> ROWS ONLY expression.

Returns:

This builder.

offset

AbstractQueryBuilder<ExpressionType> offset(Integer skip)

Adds the OFFSET <number> ROWS expression for this query. Calling this method is equivalen of calling offset(NonBooleanExpression) and passing the NumericLiteral representing the given number as the parameter.

Parameters:

skip - The amount of rows to skip before starting to include them into this query. Use null to remove the OFFSET <number> ROWS expression.

Returns:

This builder.

offset

AbstractQueryBuilder<ExpressionType> offset(NonBooleanExpression skip)

Adds the OFFSET <number> ROWS expression for this query.

Parameters:

skip - The amount of rows to skip before starting to include them into this query. May be subquery or something else that evaluates to number or NULL. Use null to remove the OFFSET <number> ROWS expression.

Returns:

This builder.
