Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
java.util.Set<CascadeType>	getCascadeTypes()	Returns the cascade types that are configured for this attribute.
InverseRemoveStrategy	getInverseRemoveStrategy()	Returns the inverse remove strategy to use if this is an inverse mapping.
java.lang.String	getMappedBy()	Returns the mapping to the inverse attribute relative to the element type or null if there is none.
java.lang.reflect.Method	getMethod()	Returns the getter method represented by this attribute mapping.
java.lang.String	getName()	Returns the name of this attribute.
java.lang.Boolean	getOrphanRemoval()	Returns whether the elements that are removed from the attribute should be deleted.
java.lang.Boolean	getUpdatable()	Returns whether the attribute is updatable i.e. the JPA attribute to which the attribute is mapped via the mapping is updatable.
void	setInverseRemoveStrategy(InverseRemoveStrategy inverseRemoveStrategy)	Sets the inverse remove strategy.
void	setMappedBy(java.lang.String mappedBy)	Set the mapping to the inverse attribute.
void	setUpdatable(boolean updatable, boolean orphanRemoval, CascadeType[] cascadeTypes, java.lang.Class<?>[] subtypes, java.lang.Class<?>[] persistSubtypes, java.lang.Class<?>[] updateSubtypes)	Set whether the attribute is updatable along with cascading configuration and the allowed subtypes.

Method Detail

getName

java.lang.String getName()

Returns the name of this attribute.

Returns:

The attribute name

getMethod

java.lang.reflect.Method getMethod()

Returns the getter method represented by this attribute mapping.

Returns:

The getter method represented by this attribute mapping

getUpdatable

java.lang.Boolean getUpdatable()

Returns whether the attribute is updatable i.e. the JPA attribute to which the attribute is mapped via the mapping is updatable. If null(the default), whether the attribute is updatable is determined during the building phase(EntityViewConfiguration.createEntityViewManager(CriteriaBuilderFactory)).

Returns:

Whether the attribute is updatable or null if updatability should be determined during building phase

getOrphanRemoval

java.lang.Boolean getOrphanRemoval()

Returns whether the elements that are removed from the attribute should be deleted. If null(the default), whether the attribute is updatable is determined during the building phase(EntityViewConfiguration.createEntityViewManager(CriteriaBuilderFactory)).

Returns:

Whether the attribute should do orphan removal or null if that should be determined during building phase

getCascadeTypes

java.util.Set<CascadeType> getCascadeTypes()

Returns the cascade types that are configured for this attribute.

Returns:

The cascade types

setUpdatable

void setUpdatable(boolean updatable,
                  boolean orphanRemoval,
                  CascadeType[] cascadeTypes,
                  java.lang.Class<?>[] subtypes,
                  java.lang.Class<?>[] persistSubtypes,
                  java.lang.Class<?>[] updateSubtypes)

Set whether the attribute is updatable along with cascading configuration and the allowed subtypes.

Parameters:

updatable - Whether the attribute should be updatable

orphanRemoval - Whether orphaned objects should be deleted

cascadeTypes - The enabled cascade types

subtypes - The allowed subtypes for both, persist and update cascades

persistSubtypes - The allowed subtypes for persist cascades

updateSubtypes - The allowed subtypes for update cascades

getMappedBy

java.lang.String getMappedBy()

Returns the mapping to the inverse attribute relative to the element type or null if there is none.

Returns:

The mapping to the inverse attribute

setMappedBy

void setMappedBy(java.lang.String mappedBy)

Set the mapping to the inverse attribute.

Parameters:

mappedBy - The mapping

getInverseRemoveStrategy

InverseRemoveStrategy getInverseRemoveStrategy()

Returns the inverse remove strategy to use if this is an inverse mapping. Returns InverseRemoveStrategy.SET_NULL by default.

Returns:

the inverse remove strategy

setInverseRemoveStrategy

void setInverseRemoveStrategy(InverseRemoveStrategy inverseRemoveStrategy)

Sets the inverse remove strategy.

Parameters:

inverseRemoveStrategy - The strategy
