### Uses of Path in javax.persistence.criteria

Subinterfaces of Path in javax.persistence.criteria
`interface` `CollectionJoin<Z,E>` The `CollectionJoin` interface is the type of the result of joining to a collection over an association or element collection that has been specified as a `java.util.Collection`.
`interface` `From<Z,X>` Represents a bound type, usually an entity that appears in the from clause, but may also be an embeddable belonging to an entity in the from clause.
`interface` `Join<Z,X>` A join to an entity, embeddable, or basic type.
`interface` `ListJoin<Z,E>` The `ListJoin` interface is the type of the result of joining to a collection over an association or element collection that has been specified as a `java.util.List`.
`interface` `MapJoin<Z,K,V>` The `MapJoin` interface is the type of the result of joining to a collection over an association or element collection that has been specified as a `java.util.Map`.
`interface` `PluralJoin<Z,C,E>` The `PluralJoin` interface defines functionality that is common to joins to all collection types.
`interface` `Root<X>` A root type in the from clause.
`interface` `SetJoin<Z,E>` The `SetJoin` interface is the type of the result of joining to a collection over an association or element collection that has been specified as a `java.util.Set`.

Methods in javax.persistence.criteria that return Path
`<Y> Path<Y>` Path.`get(SingularAttribute<? super X,Y> attribute)` Create a path corresponding to the referenced single-valued attribute.
`<Y> Path<Y>` Path.`get(String attributeName)` Create a path corresponding to the referenced attribute.
`Path<?>` Path.`getParentPath()` Return the parent "node" in the path or null if no parent.
`Path<K>` MapJoin.`key()` Create a path expression that corresponds to the map key.
`<X,T extends X> Path<T>` CriteriaBuilder.`treat(Path<X> path, Class<T> type)` Downcast Path object to the specified type.
`Path<V>` MapJoin.`value()` Create a path expression that corresponds to the map value.

Methods in javax.persistence.criteria with parameters of type Path
`<Y> CriteriaUpdate<T>` CriteriaUpdate.`set(Path<Y> attribute, Expression<? extends Y> value)` Update the value of the specified attribute.
`<Y,X extends Y> CriteriaUpdate<T>` CriteriaUpdate.`set(Path<Y> attribute, X value)` Update the value of the specified attribute.
`<X,T extends X> Path<T>` CriteriaBuilder.`treat(Path<X> path, Class<T> type)` Downcast Path object to the specified type.
