Interface Entity

All Known Subinterfaces:

MutableEntity

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractEntity, AbstractMutableEntity, PersistentEnum

public interface Entity

All model beans must implement this interface.

Method Summary

java.lang.Object	getChangedValue(java.lang.String propertyName)
java.util.Map	getChangedValues()
java.lang.Long	getId() Subclasses should implement the 'id' property and map it to the right DB column..
java.lang.Object	getOriginalValue(java.lang.String propertyName)
java.util.Map	getOriginalValues() Must return the *internal* hashmap that is used for storing original values This is important because Entity detection in the AutoSync mechanism excludes the original values maps when it traverses an object graph.
boolean	isChanged() Returns true if any property has changed since it was loaded from the database.
boolean	isChanged(java.lang.String propertyName) Returns true if the given property has changed since it was loaded from the database.
java.lang.Boolean	isUnsaved(Entity entity)
void	onDelete(Entity entity, java.io.Serializable id, java.lang.Object[] state, java.lang.String[] propertyNames, org.hibernate.type.Type[] types)

Throws:

org.hibernate.CallbackException

postFlush

void postFlush()

preFlush

void preFlush()

snapshot

void snapshot()

Store the current content of this entity, for difference analysis later. This operation is called after calling a business facade on all loaded objects by default.

getOriginalValues

java.util.Map getOriginalValues()

Must return the *internal* hashmap that is used for storing original values This is important because Entity detection in the AutoSync mechanism excludes the original values maps when it traverses an object graph.

getOriginalValue

java.lang.Object getOriginalValue(java.lang.String propertyName)

getChangedValues

java.util.Map getChangedValues()

getChangedValue

java.lang.Object getChangedValue(java.lang.String propertyName)

isChanged

boolean isChanged(java.lang.String propertyName)

Returns true if the given property has changed since it was loaded from the database.

isChanged

boolean isChanged()

Returns true if any property has changed since it was loaded from the database.
