public interface OwnableRelationshipReference
extends RelationshipReference

An OwnableRelationshipReference is a type of RelationshipReference that may be the owned side of the relationship. (i.e. It may use a "mappedBy" joining strategy.)

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

getMappedByJoiningStrategy

MappedByJoiningStrategy getMappedByJoiningStrategy()

Return the aggregate (never null) object used to configure the mapped by joining strategy

usesMappedByJoiningStrategy

boolean usesMappedByJoiningStrategy()

Return whether the mapped by joining strategy is currently the predominant joining strategy

setMappedByJoiningStrategy

void setMappedByJoiningStrategy()

Set the mapped by joining strategy as the predominant joining strategy

unsetMappedByJoiningStrategy

void unsetMappedByJoiningStrategy()

Unset the mapped by joining strategy as the predominant joining strategy. This will not set any other joining strategy as the predominant one, so whichever one is also being used (is specified) or the default strategy will apply at that point.

mayBeMappedBy

boolean mayBeMappedBy(AttributeMapping mapping)

Validates whether the given mapping may own the relationship
