Interface OrderedAggregateFunction<T>

public interface OrderedAggregateFunction<T>

An ordered aggregate function.

An ordered aggregate function is an aggregate function with a mandatory Oracle-specific WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY ..) clause. An example is LISTAGG:

 SELECT   LISTAGG(TITLE, ', ')
          WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY TITLE)
 FROM     T_BOOK
 GROUP BY AUTHOR_ID
 

The above function groups books by author and aggregates titles into a concatenated string.

Ordered aggregate functions can be further converted into window functions using the OVER(PARTITION BY ..) clause. For example:

 SELECT LISTAGG(TITLE, ', ')
        WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY TITLE)
        OVER (PARTITION BY AUTHOR_ID)
 FROM   T_BOOK
