Function documentation

QgsExpressionNode* QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::clone() const override

Generate a clone of this node.

Returns a deep copy of this node.

Ownership is transferred to the caller.

QString QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::dump() const override

Dump this node into a serialized (part) of an expression.

The returned expression does not necessarily literally match the original expression, it's just guaranteed to behave the same way.

QVariant QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::evalNode(QgsExpression* parent, const QgsExpressionContext* context) override

Abstract virtual eval method Errors are reported to the parent.

bool QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::isStatic(QgsExpression* parent, const QgsExpressionContext* context) const override

Returns true if this node can be evaluated for a static value.

This is used during the prepare() step and in case it returns true, the value of this node will already be evaluated and the result cached (and therefore not re-evaluated in subsequent calls to eval()). In case this returns true, prepareNode() will never be called.

bool QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::needsGeometry() const override

Abstract virtual method which returns if the geometry is required to evaluate this expression.

Returns true if a geometry is required to evaluate this expression

This needs to call needsGeometry() recursively on any child nodes.

QList<const QgsExpressionNode*> QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::nodes() const override

Returns a list of all nodes which are used in this expression.

QgsExpressionNode::NodeType QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::nodeType() const override

Gets the type of this node.

Returns The type of this node

QgsExpressionNode* QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::opLeft() const

Returns the node to the left of the operator.

QgsExpressionNode* QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::opRight() const

Returns the node to the right of the operator.

int QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::precedence() const

Returns the precedence index for the operator.

Higher values have higher precedence.

bool QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::prepareNode(QgsExpression* parent, const QgsExpressionContext* context) override

Abstract virtual preparation method Errors are reported to the parent.

QSet<QString> QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::referencedColumns() const override

Abstract virtual method which returns a list of columns required to evaluate this node.

Returns A list of columns required to evaluate this expression

When reimplementing this, you need to return any column that is required to evaluate this node and in addition recursively collect all the columns required to evaluate child nodes.

QString QgsExpressionNodeBinaryOperator::text() const

Returns a the name of this operator without the operands.

I.e. "AND", "OR", ...
