Detailed Description

Qore's SQL "NULL" parse tree/value type, not-referenced counted, not dynamically allocated.

This class cannot be instantiated; there will only be one single QoreNullNode object instantiated and used everywhere in the Qore library; use the null() function or simply &Null to acquire a pointer to an object of this class. This value can be represented in Qore code as the keyword "NULL". NOTE: Qore's "NULL" is not equal to "NOTHING"

Member Function Documentation

◆ evalImpl() [1/2]

virtual DLLEXPORT QoreValue SimpleValueQoreNode::evalImpl ( bool &  needs_deref,
ExceptionSink xsink 
) const
privatevirtual

this function is never called for this type

See also
AbstractQoreNode::evalImpl()

Reimplemented from SimpleValueQoreNode.

◆ evalImpl() [2/2]

DLLLOCAL QoreValue QoreNullNode::evalImpl ( bool &  needs_deref,
ExceptionSink xsink 
) const
privatevirtual

should never be called for value types

in debugging builds of the library, calls to this function will abort

Reimplemented from SimpleValueQoreNode.

◆ getAsString() [1/2]

virtual DLLEXPORT QoreString * QoreNullNode::getAsString ( bool &  del,
int  foff,
class ExceptionSink xsink 
) const
virtual

returns a QoreString with the text: "<NULL>"

used for n and N printf formatting

Parameters
delis always set to true for this implementation of the function, meaning that the returned QoreString pointer should be deleted
fofffor multi-line formatting offset, -1 = no line breaks (ignored by this version of the function)
xsinkignored by this version of the function NOTE: Use the QoreNodeAsStringHelper class (defined in QoreStringNode.h) instead of using this function directly
See also
QoreNodeAsStringHelper

Implements AbstractQoreNode.

◆ getAsString() [2/2]

virtual DLLEXPORT int QoreNullNode::getAsString ( QoreString str,
int  foff,
class ExceptionSink xsink 
) const
virtual

concatenate "<NULL>" to an existing QoreString

used for n and N printf formatting

Parameters
strthe string representation of the type will be concatenated to this QoreString reference
fofffor multi-line formatting offset, -1 = no line breaks
xsinkif an error occurs, the Qore-language exception information will be added here
Returns
-1 for exception raised, 0 = OK

Implements AbstractQoreNode.

◆ is_equal_hard()

virtual DLLEXPORT bool QoreNullNode::is_equal_hard ( const AbstractQoreNode v,
ExceptionSink xsink 
) const
virtual

tests for equality without type conversions (hard compare)

Parameters
vthe value to compare
xsinkignored for this version of the function

Implements AbstractQoreNode.

◆ is_equal_soft()

virtual DLLEXPORT bool QoreNullNode::is_equal_soft ( const AbstractQoreNode v,
ExceptionSink xsink 
) const
virtual

tests for equality with possible type conversion (soft compare)

since no type can be implicitly converted to a NULL, this comparison is the same as is_equal_hard() for QoreNullNode

Parameters
vthe value to compare
xsinkignored for this version of the function

Implements AbstractQoreNode.
