Interface QueryExp

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

ObjectName

public interface QueryExp
extends Serializable

Applies the type of relational constraints seen in the where clauses of databases to an ObjectName. Instances of this class are usually returned by the static methods of the Query classes. If a custom implementation is required, it is better to extend the QueryEval class, rather than simply implementing this interface, in order to ensure that the setMBeanServer(MBeanServer) method functions correctly.
