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

All Implemented Interfaces:

Expression
```
public final class NumericLiteral
extends AbstractExpression
```
Exact numeric literals support the use of Java integer literal syntax as well as SQL exact numeric literal syntax. Approximate literals support the use of Java floating point literal syntax as well as SQL approximate numeric literal syntax.
Appropriate suffixes may be used to indicate the specific type of a numeric literal in accordance with the Java Language Specification.

- Constructor Detail
  - NumericLiteral
```
public NumericLiteral(AbstractExpression parent)
```
    Creates a new NumericLiteral.
    
    Parameters:
    
    parent - The parent of this expression
  - NumericLiteral
```
public NumericLiteral(AbstractExpression parent,
                      String numeric)
```
    Creates a new NumericLiteral.
    
    Parameters:
    
    parent - The parent of this expression
    
    numeric - The numeric value
- 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.
  - getQueryBNF
```
public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()
```
    Returns the BNF of this Expression.
    
    Returns:
    
    The JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of this Expression
  - getText
```
public String getText()
```
  - toActualText
```
public String toActualText()
```
    Generates a string representation of this Expression, which needs to include any characters that are considered virtual, i.e. that was parsed when the query is incomplete and is needed for functionality like content assist.
    
    Specified by:
    
    toActualText in interface Expression
    
    Overrides:
    
    toActualText in class AbstractExpression
    
    Returns:
    
    The string representation of this Expression
  - toParsedText
```
public String toParsedText()
```
    Returns a string representation of this Expression and its children. The expression should contain whitespace even if the beautified version would not have any. For instance, "SELECT e " should be returned where Expression.toParsedText() would return "SELECT e".
    
    Specified by:
    
    toParsedText in interface Expression
    
    Overrides:
    
    toParsedText in class AbstractExpression
    
    Returns:
    
    The string representation of this Expression
