- org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.AbstractExpression
- - org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.jpql.parser.BadExpression

All Implemented Interfaces:

Expression
```
public final class BadExpression
extends AbstractExpression
```
This wraps another Expression that was correctly parsed by it is located in an invalid location within the JPQL query.

- Constructor Detail
  - BadExpression
```
public BadExpression(AbstractExpression parent)
```
    Creates a new BadExpression.
    
    Parameters:
    
    parent - The parent of this expression
  - BadExpression
```
public BadExpression(AbstractExpression parent,
                     AbstractExpression expression)
```
    Creates a new BadExpression.
    
    Parameters:
    
    parent - The parent of this expression
    
    expression - The Expression that was parsed in a location that was not supposed to contain that expression
- Method Detail
  - accept
```
public void accept(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
```
    Visits this Expression by the given visitor.
    
    Parameters:
    
    visitor - The ExpressionVisitor to visit this object
  - acceptChildren
```
public void acceptChildren(ExpressionVisitor visitor)
```
    Visits the children of this Expression. This method can be used to optimize traversing the children since a new list is not created every time Expression.children() is called.
    This does not traverse the Expression sub-hierarchy, use a subclass of AbstractTraverseChildrenVisitor in order to traverse the entire sub-hierarchy.
    
    Parameters:
    
    visitor - The visitor to visit the children of this object.
  - findQueryBNF
```
public JPQLQueryBNF findQueryBNF(Expression expression)
```
    Retrieves the JPQLQueryBNF that represents the fragment of this Expression that was used when parsing the given Expression.
    
    Specified by:
    
    findQueryBNF in interface Expression
    
    Overrides:
    
    findQueryBNF in class AbstractExpression
    
    Parameters:
    
    expression - The Expression that is a descendant of this one
    
    Returns:
    
    The JPQLQueryBNF that was used to parse the given expression
  - getExpression
```
public Expression getExpression()
```
    Returns the Expression that was parsed but grammatically, it is not a valid location.
    
    Returns:
    
    The invalid portion of the JPQL query that was parsed
  - getQueryBNF
```
public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()
```
    Returns the BNF of this Expression.
    
    Returns:
    
    The JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of this Expression
