Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
LeftJoinNode	acceptNodeTransformer(HomogeneousQueryNodeTransformer transformer) "Accept" method for the "Visitor" pattern.
LeftJoinNode	changeOptionalFilterCondition(Optional<ImmutableExpression> newOptionalFilterCondition) Constructs a new JoinLikeNode with the following optional filter condition (recall that a QueryNode is immutable).
