Delegates

@QueryDelegate

com.mysema.query.annotations

Instead of static 'helper' methods to create queries, consider using annotated delegate methods to provide query extensions. Make your own DSL.

e.g. Expression from...where(QSalaryDetail.salaryDetail.isSalaryRelevant())

---

Replace the 'static cow' below with a Query Delegate.

Before

public class RelevantSalaryUtil {

    public static final String NON_RELEVANT_SALARY = "other";

    public static boolean isSalaryRelevant(String salaryName) {
        return !NON_RELEVANT_SALARY.equals(salaryName);
    }
}

After

@QueryDelegate(SalaryDetail.class)
public static BooleanExpression isSalaryRelevant(QSalaryDetail detail) {
    return detail.salaryName.notEqualsIgnoreCase("other");
}
