public final class TableSelectExpression
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable, StatementTreeObject, java.lang.Cloneable

A container object for the a table select expression, eg.

               SELECT [columns]
                 FROM [tables]
                WHERE [search_clause]

chainComposite

public void chainComposite(TableSelectExpression expression,
                           java.lang.String composite,
                           boolean is_all)

Throws:

DatabaseException

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()
                       throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

Description copied from interface: StatementTreeObject
