QualifiedAsterisk (jOOQ 3.12.1 API)

All Superinterfaces:

QueryPart, SelectFieldOrAsterisk, java.io.Serializable
```
public interface QualifiedAsterisk
extends SelectFieldOrAsterisk
```
A qualified asterisk.
Asterisks (qualified and unqualified) are expressions that can be used exclusively in SELECT clauses and a few other clauses that explicitly allow for asterisks, including RETURNING on DML statements. Asterisks are syntax sugar in SQL, which are expanded to a column list by the parser once all the columns in the FROM clause are known.
Example:
```
 // Assuming import static org.jooq.impl.DSL.*;

 using(configuration)
    .select(ACTOR.asterisk())
    .from(ACTOR)
    .fetch();
 
```
Instances can be created using Table.asterisk().

```
@Support
QualifiedAsterisk except(java.lang.String... fieldNames)
```
    The qualified asterisk (t.* EXCEPT (fields)) expression to be used in SELECT clauses.
    This expression is a convenient way to select "all but some fields". Some dialects (e.g. SQLDialect.H2) implement this feature natively. In other dialects, jOOQ expands the asterisk if possible.
  - except
```
