analyzing SQL statement, parsing in Java
I have an SQL statement :
SELECT ... WHERE YEAR = XXXX and MONTH = YY or YEAR = YYYY and MONTH < ZZ
I need to create set of all months with year which will be included , for example
for WHERE YEAR = 2012 and MONTH = 04 or YEAR = 2013 and MONTH > 5
it will be (04/2012, 06/2013, 07/2013, ...) , the upper limit will be the current year and month
or
WHERE YEAR = 2012 and MONTH < 03 or YEAR = 2013 and MONTH > 5
it will be (01/2008,.......02/2012, 06/2013,....) the lower limit will be 01/2008
Any suggestions

This is confusing ;) Can you please omit the sql and just say in normal human terms what you're trying to achieve
This is tricky. You can try as given below.
Ex.1. YEAR = 2012 and MONTH = 04 or YEAR = 2013 and MONTH > 5
WHERE TO_DATE(YEAR||MONTH||'01',
Ex.2. YEAR = 2012 and MONTH < 03 or YEAR = 2013 and MONTH > 5
WHERE TO_DATE(YEAR||MONTH||'01',
Ex.1. YEAR = 2012 and MONTH = 04 or YEAR = 2013 and MONTH > 5
WHERE TO_DATE(YEAR||MONTH||'01',
Ex.2. YEAR = 2012 and MONTH < 03 or YEAR = 2013 and MONTH > 5
WHERE TO_DATE(YEAR||MONTH||'01',
As I understand it, sniger wants to write a piece of Java code that takes an arbitrary SQL SELECT statement that includes some WHERE clauses on the YEAR and MONTH columns and turns it into a list of months and years that could be returned by the statement.
I'm wondering where this requirement came from.
