Hello, An informal way of doing this might look like that:
// This should work with any dialect Factory factory = new Factory(dialect); // Create a local render context and configure it to declare tables (e.g. "ADM_USER" AS "A0") RenderContext ctx = factory.renderContext().declareTables(true); // Check if the declaration of the aliased table starts with the declaration of the unaliased table assertTrue(ctx.render(alias).startsWith(ctx.render(user))); Would that do the trick for you? Note, even if Factory.renderContext()'s Javadoc claims that this is internal API, I have plans of stabilising this API in jOOQ 3.0, to make it available for advanced users: https://github.com/jOOQ/jOOQ/issues/1663 Another option is to compare the record type: assertEquals(alias.getRecordType(), user.getRecordType()); It is unlikely that any other kind of Table will produce the same generated record type Cheers Lukas 2013/1/10 digulla <[email protected]> > I need to find out if an alias points to the some table, basically: > > Table<?> user = Tables.ADM_USER; > Table<?> alias = user.as( "A0" ); > > assertTrue( alias.equals( user ) ); > > > How can I do that? > >
