Interface JoinTable

All Superinterfaces:
org.eclipse.core.runtime.IAdaptable, IResourcePart, JpaContextNode, JpaNode, Model, ReferenceTable, Table
All Known Subinterfaces:
JavaJoinTable, OrmJoinTable

public interface JoinTable
extends ReferenceTable

Used by ManyToMany and OneToMany mappings. 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.

Since:
2.0
Version:
2.3

Method Detail

getRelationshipMapping

RelationshipMapping getRelationshipMapping()

getParent

JoinTableJoiningStrategy getParent()
Description copied from interface: JpaNode
Return the JPA node's parent. The JPA project will not have a parent.

Specified by:
getParent in interface JpaNode

inverseJoinColumns

<T extends JoinColumn> java.util.ListIterator<T> inverseJoinColumns()
Return the join table's inverse join columns, whether specified or default.


inverseJoinColumnsSize

int inverseJoinColumnsSize()
Return the number of inverse join columns, whether specified or default.


convertDefaultToSpecifiedInverseJoinColumn

void convertDefaultToSpecifiedInverseJoinColumn()
Convert the join table's default inverse join column to a specified inverse join column.


specifiedInverseJoinColumns

<T extends JoinColumn> java.util.ListIterator<T> specifiedInverseJoinColumns()
Return the specified inverse join columns.


specifiedInverseJoinColumnsSize

int specifiedInverseJoinColumnsSize()
Return the number of specified inverse join columns.

Add a specified join column to the join table. Return the newly-created join column.


removeSpecifiedInverseJoinColumn

void removeSpecifiedInverseJoinColumn(int index)
Remove the inverse join column at the specified index from the join table.


removeSpecifiedInverseJoinColumn

void removeSpecifiedInverseJoinColumn(JoinColumn joinColumn)
Remove the specified inverse join column from the join table.


moveSpecifiedInverseJoinColumn

void moveSpecifiedInverseJoinColumn(int targetIndex,
                                    int sourceIndex)
Move an inverse join column from the specified source index to the specified target index.


hasSpecifiedInverseJoinColumns

boolean hasSpecifiedInverseJoinColumns()
Return whether the join table has specified inverse join columns.


clearSpecifiedInverseJoinColumns

void clearSpecifiedInverseJoinColumns()
Remove all the join table's inverse join columns.
