Method Detail

mayReturnNullWithoutNullArguments

protected boolean mayReturnNullWithoutNullArguments()

In case of non-literal RDF types

Specified by:

mayReturnNullWithoutNullArguments in class FunctionSymbolImpl

tolerateNulls

protected boolean tolerateNulls()

Description copied from class: FunctionSymbolImpl

Returns true if is not guaranteed to return NULL when one argument is NULL. Can be the case for some function symbols that are rejecting certain cases and therefore refuse to simplify themselves, e.g. RDF(NULL,IRI) is invalid and therefore cannot be simplified.

Specified by:

tolerateNulls in class FunctionSymbolImpl

isAlwaysInjectiveInTheAbsenceOfNonInjectiveFunctionalTerms

public boolean isAlwaysInjectiveInTheAbsenceOfNonInjectiveFunctionalTerms()

Description copied from class: FunctionSymbolImpl

When the function symbol is, in the absence of non-injective functional sub-terms, sometimes but not always injective, please override isInjective(...)

Specified by:

isAlwaysInjectiveInTheAbsenceOfNonInjectiveFunctionalTerms in class FunctionSymbolImpl

inferType

public Optional<TermTypeInference> inferType(it.unibz.inf.ontop.com.google.common.collect.ImmutableList<? extends ImmutableTerm> terms)

buildTermAfterEvaluation

protected ImmutableTerm buildTermAfterEvaluation(it.unibz.inf.ontop.com.google.common.collect.ImmutableList<ImmutableTerm> newTerms,
                                                 TermFactory termFactory,
                                                 VariableNullability variableNullability)

Description copied from class: FunctionSymbolImpl

By default, just build a new functional term. NB: If the function symbol does not tolerate NULL values, no need to handle them here.

Overrides:

canBePostProcessed

public boolean canBePostProcessed(it.unibz.inf.ontop.com.google.common.collect.ImmutableList<? extends ImmutableTerm> arguments)

Description copied from interface: FunctionSymbol

1. When a functional term simplifies itself in a BOTTOM-UP manner: Returns true if is guaranteed to "simplify itself" as a Constant when receiving Constants as arguments (outside the optimization phase) . 2. When a functional term simplifies itself in a TOP-DOWN manner (e.g. IF-THEN-ELSE functional terms): The permission for post-processing may depend on the ability of sub-functional terms to be post-processed or safely evaluated by the DB engine. (Recall that top-down evaluation allows some arguments not to be evaluated when their pre-conditions are not met. This is particularly valuable for preventing fatal errors).
