Interface IRSEPersistableReferencingObject

IRSEBasePersistableReferencingObject, IRSEBaseReferencingObject, IRSEReferencingObject

All Known Subinterfaces:

public interface IRSEPersistableReferencingObject

extends IRSEReferencingObject, IRSEBasePersistableReferencingObject

A simple class that implements IRSEPersistableReferencingObject. This is an object that is a shadow (reference) of a real master object (IRSEPersistableReferencedObject).

Objects of this class contain a pointer (in memory) to the master object, and a copy of this object's unique name or key (for storing on disk).

Only the name is saved to disk, and after restoring from disk, that name is used to set the actual object reference.

The intention is that in your Rose model, your class extends this class. Do this for any shadow/reference class which you want to persist. Use a subclass of SystemPersistableReferenceManager to manage a list of these, and manage the saving/restoring of that list.

YOU MUST OVERRIDE resolveReferencesAfterRestore IN YOUR REFERENCE MANAGER SUBCLASS
