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.

Method Detail

getEntity

Entity getEntity()
Return the entity that owns the relationship mapping.


getRelationshipReference

RelationshipReference getRelationshipReference()
Return the meta-information used to populate the entities of the relationship


isRelationshipOwner

boolean isRelationshipOwner()
Return whether this mapping is the owning side of the relationship. Either this is a unidirectional mapping or it is the owning side of a bidirectional relationship. If bidirectional, the owning side is the side that does not specify 'mappedBy'. The owning side is the side where the join table would be specified


getJoinTableDefaultName

java.lang.String getJoinTableDefaultName()

getTargetEntity

java.lang.String getTargetEntity()

getSpecifiedTargetEntity

java.lang.String getSpecifiedTargetEntity()

setSpecifiedTargetEntity

void setSpecifiedTargetEntity(java.lang.String value)

getDefaultTargetEntity

java.lang.String getDefaultTargetEntity()

getResolvedTargetEntity

Entity getResolvedTargetEntity()

allTargetEntityAttributeNames

java.util.Iterator<java.lang.String> allTargetEntityAttributeNames()
Return all attribute names on the target entity, provided target entity resolves


getTargetEntityEnclosingTypeSeparator

char getTargetEntityEnclosingTypeSeparator()
Return the char to be used for browsing or creating the target entity IType.

IType.getFullyQualifiedName(char)

getCascade

Cascade getCascade()
