I'd like to apply more complex expressions as the Case When above. It
seems there is a function closed to the SQL Case When called
if_then_else.
So I try :
Expression expression =
ECQL.toExpression("if_then_else(area(THE_GEOM)>10,5, 1)");
definitions.add(new Definition("EXP", expression));
SimpleFeatureSource transformed =
TransformFactory.transform((SimpleFeatureSource) fs,
"OUTPUT_TABLE_TEST_F", definitions);
Unfortunately, it returns the following exception
Exception in thread "main"
org.geotools.filter.text.cql2.CQLException:
Encountered ">" at line 1, column 28.
Is there a way to execute nested expression with Geotools ECQL
parser ?
It is, but you're mixing filters and expressions in the wrong way.
Filters use expressions, but
they are not expressions. So something like "area(THE_GEOM)>10" is a
filter, it cannot
be nested inside an expression, only inside another filter.
There are filter functions that try to work around this limitation, so
you could write this instead:
if_then_else(greater(area(THE_GEOM), 10),5, 1)
Thanks Andrea,
if_then_else(greater(area(THE_GEOM), 10),5, 1) is a good way but I'd
like to write in plain text form as SQL does.
I'd love to see an improvement in GeoTools allowing to treat a Filter
like an Expression that returns
a boolean but... the change would not be trivial, and rife with
repercussions (would allow building
filters/expressions that are not valid anymore, not in CQL, nor in
Filter Encoding).
I understand the standard compliant pb ;-) There is a need for an
abstract and extensible language for expressions.
We will have to think about something else and maybe implement our own
parser expression.
A temporary solution would be to parse the expression with a lib like
JSQLParser (https://github.com/JSQLParser/JSqlParser) and build a "CQL
compliant" expression.
