NAME

RDF::Query::Algebra::Exists - Algebra class for EXISTS and NOT EXISTS patterns

VERSION

This document describes RDF::Query::Algebra::Exists version 2.902.

METHODS

new ( $pattern, $pattern, $exists, $not_flag )

Returns a new EXISTS structure for the specified $pattern. If $not_flag is true, the pattern will be interpreted as a NOT EXISTS pattern.

construct_args

Returns a list of arguments that, passed to this class' constructor, will produce a clone of this algebra pattern.

pattern

Returns the base pattern (LHS) onto which the not-pattern joins.

exists_pattern

Returns the not-pattern (RHS).

not_flag

Returns true if the pattern is a NOT EXISTS pattern.

sse

Returns the SSE string for this alegbra expression.

as_sparql

Returns the SPARQL string for this alegbra expression.

as_hash

Returns the query as a nested set of plain data structures (no objects).

type

Returns the type of this algebra expression.

referenced_variables

Returns a list of the variable names used in this algebra expression.

binding_variables

Returns a list of the variable names used in this algebra expression that will bind values during execution.

definite_variables

Returns a list of the variable names that will be bound after evaluating this algebra expression.
