Interface DatabaseFinder

All Known Implementing Classes:

DatabaseFinder.Default, DatabaseFinder.Simple

public interface DatabaseFinder

This interface allows clients of the Dali db package to plug in a custom strategy for comparing an identifier to the names of a collection of database objects. Provisional API: This interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves. This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients.
