Method Detail

getTargetObject

java.lang.Object getTargetObject()

Return the current target object behind this scoped object proxy, in its raw form (as stored in the target scope).

The raw target object can for example be passed to persistence providers which would not be able to handle the scoped proxy object.

Returns:

the current target object behind this scoped object proxy

removeFromScope

void removeFromScope()

Remove this object from its target scope, for example from the backing session.

Note that no further calls may be made to the scoped object afterwards (at least within the current thread, that is, with the exact same target object in the target scope).
