    <T> @NotNull Field<T>
    asField()
    The underlying field representation of this object.
    <T> @NotNull Field<T>
    asField(String alias)
    The underlying field representation of this object.

    asField(Function<? super Field<T>,? extends String> aliasFunction)

    - 3.14.0 - [#10156] - These methods will be removed without replacement from a future jOOQ.

  • Method Details

    • asField

      @NotNull <T> @NotNull Field<T> asField()
      The underlying field representation of this object.

      This method is useful for things like SELECT y.*, (SELECT a FROM x) FROM y

      Returns:
      This result provider as a Field<?> object

    • asField

      @NotNull <T> @NotNull Field<T> asField(String alias)
      The underlying field representation of this object.

      This method is useful for things like SELECT y.*, (SELECT a FROM x) [alias] FROM y

      Note that the case-sensitivity of the returned field depends on Settings.getRenderQuotedNames(). By default, field aliases are quoted, and thus case-sensitive in many SQL dialects!

      Returns:
      This result provider as a Field<?> object

      @Deprecated(forRemoval=true, since="3.14") @NotNull @Support <T> @NotNull Field<T> asField(Function<? super Field<T>,? extends String> aliasFunction)
      Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.
      - 3.14.0 - [#10156] - These methods will be removed without replacement from a future jOOQ. They offer convenience that is unidiomatic for jOOQ's DSL, without offering functionality that would not be possible otherwise - yet they add complexity in jOOQ's internals.
      The underlying field representation of this object.

      This method is useful for things like SELECT y.*, (SELECT a FROM x) [alias] FROM y

      Note that the case-sensitivity of the returned field depends on Settings.getRenderQuotedNames(). By default, field aliases are quoted, and thus case-sensitive in many SQL dialects!

      This works like asField(String), except that field aliases are provided by a function. This is useful, for instance, to prefix all columns with a common prefix (on Table.as(String, Function)): 

      
 MY_TABLE.as("t1", f -> "prefix_" + f.getName());

      And then to use the same function also for individual fields: 

      
 MY_TABLE.MY_COLUMN.as(f -> "prefix_" + f.getName());
