A nested AND/OR block within a Hibernate criteria query, created by calling conjunction() or disjunction() on a BaseCriteriaBuilder. Restrictions added via the inherited methods (eq, like, in, and so on) are combined with each other using the junction's operator and added as a single restriction to the query that created this block.

likeStartsWith(String propertyName, Object value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a case-sensitive "starts with" restriction, matching values of the property that begin with the given value.

likeAnywhere(String propertyName, Object value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a case-sensitive "contains" restriction, matching values of the property that contain the given value anywhere in the string.

ilikeAnywhere(String propertyName, Object value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a case-insensitive "contains" restriction, matching values of the property that contain the given value anywhere in the string, regardless of case.

ilikeStartsWith(String propertyName, Object value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a case-insensitive "starts with" restriction, matching values of the property that begin with the given value, regardless of case.

ilike(String propertyName, Object value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a case-insensitive equality-style "like" restriction, similar to the Postgres ilike operator. Unlike ilikeAnywhere, no wildcard is implied around the value, so it behaves as a case-insensitive equality match unless the caller includes their own wildcard characters in the value.

eq(String propertyName, Object value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds an equality restriction on the named property. Integer values are widened to Long first, because identifier properties are stored as Long and JS numeric values otherwise arrive as Integer.

ne(String propertyName, Object value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a not-equal restriction on the named property. Integer values are widened to Long first, because identifier properties are stored as Long and JS numeric values otherwise arrive as Integer.

ge(String propertyName, Object value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a "greater than or equal to" restriction on the named property. Integer values are widened to Long first, because identifier properties are stored as Long and JS numeric values otherwise arrive as Integer.

gt(String propertyName, Object value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a "greater than" restriction on the named property. Integer values are widened to Long first, because identifier properties are stored as Long and JS numeric values otherwise arrive as Integer.

le(String propertyName, Object value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a "less than or equal to" restriction on the named property. Integer values are widened to Long first, because identifier properties are stored as Long and JS numeric values otherwise arrive as Integer.

lt(String propertyName, Object value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a "less than" restriction on the named property. Integer values are widened to Long first, because identifier properties are stored as Long and JS numeric values otherwise arrive as Integer.

isNull(String propertyName)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a restriction that the named property must be null.

isNotNull(String propertyName)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a restriction that the named property must not be null.

in(String propertyName, Collection value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a restriction that the named property must equal one of the values in the given collection. Integer values are widened to Long first, because identifier properties are stored as Long and JS numeric values otherwise arrive as Integer.

in(String propertyName, Object[] value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a restriction that the named property must equal one of the values in the given array. Integer values are widened to Long first, because identifier properties are stored as Long and JS numeric values otherwise arrive as Integer.

nin(String propertyName, Object[] value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a restriction that the named property must not equal any of the values in the given array.

nin(String propertyName, Collection value)

Returns: BaseCriteriaBuilder

Adds a restriction that the named property must not equal any of the values in the given collection.

conjunction()

Returns: JunctionCriteriaBuilder

Starts a nested AND block: restrictions added to the returned builder are combined with each other using AND, and the whole block is added as a single restriction to this builder.

disjunction()

Returns: JunctionCriteriaBuilder

Starts a nested OR block: restrictions added to the returned builder are combined with each other using OR, and the whole block is added as a single restriction to this builder.
