Method Detail

getPreferredConstructor

public PreferredConstructor<T> getPreferredConstructor()

Description copied from interface: PersistentEntity

Returns the PreferredConstructor to be used to instantiate objects of this PersistentEntity.

Specified by:

getPreferredConstructor in interface PersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>

Returns:

must never return null.

getName

public String getName()

Description copied from interface: PersistentEntity

The entity name including any package prefix

Specified by:

getName in interface PersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>

Returns:

must never return null

getIdProperty

public P getIdProperty()

Description copied from interface: PersistentEntity

Returns the id property of the PersistentEntity. Must never return null as a PersistentEntity instance must not be created if there is no id property.

Specified by:

getIdProperty in interface PersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>

Returns:

the id property of the PersistentEntity.

setIdProperty

public void setIdProperty(P property)

Description copied from interface: MutablePersistentEntity

Sets the id property for the entity.

Specified by:

setIdProperty in interface MutablePersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>

addPersistentProperty

public void addPersistentProperty(P property)

Description copied from interface: MutablePersistentEntity

Adds a PersistentProperty to the entity.

Specified by:

addPersistentProperty in interface MutablePersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>

addAssociation

public void addAssociation(Association<P> association)

Description copied from interface: MutablePersistentEntity

Adds an Association to the entity.

Specified by:

addAssociation in interface MutablePersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>

getPersistentProperty

public P getPersistentProperty(String name)

Description copied from interface: PersistentEntity

Obtains a PersistentProperty instance by name.

Specified by:

getPersistentProperty in interface PersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>

Parameters:

name - The name of the property

Returns:

The PersistentProperty or null if it doesn't exist

getType

public Class<T> getType()

Description copied from interface: PersistentEntity

Returns the resolved Java type of this entity.

Specified by:

getType in interface PersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>

Returns:

The underlying Java class for this entity

getTypeInformation

public TypeInformation<T> getTypeInformation()

Description copied from interface: PersistentEntity

Returns the TypeInformation backing this PersistentEntity.

Specified by:

getTypeInformation in interface PersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>

Returns:

doWithProperties

public void doWithProperties(PropertyHandler<P> handler)

Description copied from interface: PersistentEntity

Applies the given PropertyHandler to all PersistentPropertys contained in this PersistentEntity.

Specified by:

doWithProperties in interface PersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>

Parameters:

handler - must not be null.

doWithAssociations

public void doWithAssociations(AssociationHandler<P> handler)

Description copied from interface: PersistentEntity

Applies the given AssociationHandler to all Association contained in this PersistentEntity.

Specified by:

doWithAssociations in interface PersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>

Parameters:

handler - must not be null.

verify

public void verify()

Description copied from interface: MutablePersistentEntity

Callback method to trigger validation of the PersistentEntity. As MutablePersistentEntity is not immutable there might be some verification steps necessary after the object has reached is final state.

Specified by:

verify in interface MutablePersistentEntity<T,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>
