Constructor Summary

ExpressionImpl(java.lang.Class<T> cls, java.lang.String name, ExpressionType type)
Constructor for a parameter or variable of this type.

ExpressionImpl(Expression queryExpr)
Constructor taking in the query expression being represented.

ExpressionImpl(PersistableExpression parent, java.lang.String name)
Constructor, extending a parent, and accessing a member of that parent.
