select

public void select(Select sel,
                   ExpContext ctx,

Description copied from interface: Val
Order by this value.


load

public Object load(ExpContext ctx,

            throws SQLException
Description copied from interface: Val
Load the data for this value.

Throws:
SQLException

calculateValue

public void calculateValue(Select sel,
                           ExpContext ctx,
