Interface Interceptor

All Known Implementing Classes:

EmptyInterceptor

public interface Interceptor

Allows user code to inspect and/or change entity property values before they are written to the database, or after the are read from the database.

The Session may not be invoked from a callback (nor may a callback cause a collection or proxy to be lazily initialized).

There might be a single instance of Interceptor for a SessionFactory, or a new instance might be created for each Session. Use:

• AvailableSettings.INTERCEPTOR to specify an interceptor shared between sessions, or
• AvailableSettings.SESSION_SCOPED_INTERCEPTOR to specify that there is a dedicated instance of the interceptor for each session.

Whichever approach is used, the interceptor must be serializable for the Session to be serializable. This means that SessionFactory-scoped interceptors should implement readResolve().

Method Detail

onLoad

@Deprecated(since="6.0")
default boolean onLoad(Object entity,
                       Serializable id,
                       Object[] state,
                       String[] propertyNames,

                throws CallbackException

Deprecated.

use onLoad(Object, Object, Object[], String[], Type[])

Called just before an object is initialized. The interceptor may change the state, which will be propagated to the persistent object. Note that when this method is called, entity will be an empty uninitialized instance of the class.

NOTE: The indexes across the state, propertyNames and types arrays match.

Parameters:

entity - The entity instance being loaded

id - The identifier value being loaded

state - The entity state (which will be pushed into the entity instance)

propertyNames - The names of the entity properties, corresponding to the state.

types - The types of the entity properties, corresponding to the state.

Returns:

true if the user modified the state in any way.

Throws:

CallbackException - Thrown if the interceptor encounters any problems handling the callback.

onLoad

default boolean onLoad(Object entity,
                       Object id,
                       Object[] state,
                       String[] propertyNames,
                       Type[] types)
                throws CallbackException

Called just before an object is initialized. The interceptor may change the state, which will be propagated to the persistent object. Note that when this method is called, entity will be an empty uninitialized instance of the class.

NOTE: The indexes across the state, propertyNames and types arrays match.

Parameters:

entity - The entity instance being loaded

id - The identifier value being loaded

state - The entity state (which will be pushed into the entity instance)

propertyNames - The names of the entity properties, corresponding to the state.

types - The types of the entity properties, corresponding to the state.

Returns:

true if the user modified the state in any way.

Throws:

CallbackException - Thrown if the interceptor encounters any problems handling the callback.

onFlushDirty

@Deprecated(since="6.0")

                             Object[] previousState,
                             String[] propertyNames,
                             Type[] types)
                      throws CallbackException

Deprecated.

use onFlushDirty(Object, Object, Object[], Object[], String[], Type[])

Called when an object is detected to be dirty, during a flush. The interceptor may modify the detected currentState, which will be propagated to both the database and the persistent object. Note that not all flushes end in actual synchronization with the database, in which case the new currentState will be propagated to the object, but not necessarily (immediately) to the database. It is strongly recommended that the interceptor not modify the previousState.

NOTE: The indexes across the currentState, previousState, propertyNames and types arrays match.

Parameters:

entity - The entity instance detected as being dirty and being flushed

id - The identifier of the entity

currentState - The entity's current state

previousState - The entity's previous (load time) state.

propertyNames - The names of the entity properties

types - The types of the entity properties

Returns:

true if the user modified the currentState in any way.

Throws:

CallbackException - Thrown if the interceptor encounters any problems handling the callback.

                             Object[] previousState,
                             String[] propertyNames,
                             Type[] types)
