Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
void	add(ScalarType<?> scalarType)	Register a ScalarType with the system.
void	addEnumType(ScalarType<?> type, Class<? extends Enum> myEnumClass)	Register a ScalarType for an Enum with can have multiple classes.
ScalarType<?>	createEnumScalarType(Class<? extends Enum<?>> enumType, javax.persistence.EnumType enumerated)	Create a ScalarType for an Enum using a mapping (rather than JPA Ordinal or String which has limitations).
ScalarType<?>	getArrayScalarType(Class<?> type, io.ebean.annotation.DbArray dbArray, Type genericType, boolean nullable)	Return the ScalarType used to handle DB ARRAY.
ScalarType<?>	getDbMapScalarType()	Return the ScalarType used to handle HSTORE (Map).
ScalarType<?>	getJsonScalarType(DeployBeanProperty prop, int dbType, int dbLength)	Return the ScalarType used to handle JSON content.
ScalarType<?>	getScalarType(int jdbcType)	Return the ScalarType for a given jdbc type.
ScalarType<?>	getScalarType(Class<?> type)	Return the ScalarType for a given logical type.
ScalarType<?>	getScalarType(Class<?> type, int jdbcType)	For java.util.Date and java.util.Calendar additionally pass the jdbc type that you would like the ScalarType to map to.
ScalarType<?>	getScalarType(String cast)	Return the scalar type for the given logical type.

Method Detail

add

void add(ScalarType<?> scalarType)

Register a ScalarType with the system.

addEnumType

void addEnumType(ScalarType<?> type,
                 Class<? extends Enum> myEnumClass)

Register a ScalarType for an Enum with can have multiple classes.

getScalarType

ScalarType<?> getScalarType(String cast)

Return the scalar type for the given logical type.

getScalarType

ScalarType<?> getScalarType(int jdbcType)

Return the ScalarType for a given jdbc type.

Parameters:

jdbcType - as per java.sql.Types

getScalarType

ScalarType<?> getScalarType(Class<?> type)

Return the ScalarType for a given logical type.

getScalarType

ScalarType<?> getScalarType(Class<?> type,
                            int jdbcType)

For java.util.Date and java.util.Calendar additionally pass the jdbc type that you would like the ScalarType to map to. This is because these types can map to different java.sql.Types depending on the property.

createEnumScalarType

ScalarType<?> createEnumScalarType(Class<? extends Enum<?>> enumType,
                                   javax.persistence.EnumType enumerated)

Create a ScalarType for an Enum using a mapping (rather than JPA Ordinal or String which has limitations).

getJsonScalarType

ScalarType<?> getJsonScalarType(DeployBeanProperty prop,
                                int dbType,
                                int dbLength)

Return the ScalarType used to handle JSON content.

Note that type expected to be JsonNode or Map.

getArrayScalarType

ScalarType<?> getArrayScalarType(Class<?> type,
                                 io.ebean.annotation.DbArray dbArray,
                                 Type genericType,
                                 boolean nullable)

Return the ScalarType used to handle DB ARRAY.

getDbMapScalarType

ScalarType<?> getDbMapScalarType()

Return the ScalarType used to handle HSTORE (Map).
