Interface AttributeOverrideContainer

All Superinterfaces:

org.eclipse.core.runtime.IAdaptable, IResourcePart, JpaContextNode, JpaNode, Model, OverrideContainer

All Known Subinterfaces:

JavaAttributeOverrideContainer, OrmAttributeOverrideContainer

public interface AttributeOverrideContainer
extends OverrideContainer

Attribute override container. Used by entities, embedded mappings, and element collection 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:

2.3

Method Detail

overrides

java.util.ListIterator<? extends ReadOnlyAttributeOverride> overrides()

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Return the overrides, both specified and virtual.

Specified by:

overrides in interface OverrideContainer

getOverrideNamed

ReadOnlyAttributeOverride getOverrideNamed(java.lang.String name)

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Return the override with the specified name, whether specified or virtual.

Specified by:

getOverrideNamed in interface OverrideContainer

specifiedOverrides

java.util.ListIterator<? extends AttributeOverride> specifiedOverrides()

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Return the specified overrides. No add/remove for specified overrides, the virtual overrides will be populated from the owner, then use VirtualOverride.convertToSpecified() to add/remove the override from the container.

Specified by:

specifiedOverrides in interface OverrideContainer

getSpecifiedOverride

AttributeOverride getSpecifiedOverride(int index)

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Return the specified override at the specified index.

Specified by:

getSpecifiedOverride in interface OverrideContainer

getSpecifiedOverrideNamed

AttributeOverride getSpecifiedOverrideNamed(java.lang.String name)

Specified by:

getSpecifiedOverrideNamed in interface OverrideContainer

virtualOverrides

java.util.ListIterator<? extends VirtualAttributeOverride> virtualOverrides()

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Return the virtual overrides, those not specified.

Specified by:

virtualOverrides in interface OverrideContainer

convertOverrideToVirtual

VirtualAttributeOverride convertOverrideToVirtual(Override_ specifiedOverride)

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Convert the specified specified override to virtual. Return the new override.

Specified by:

convertOverrideToVirtual in interface OverrideContainer

convertOverrideToSpecified

AttributeOverride convertOverrideToSpecified(VirtualOverride virtualOverride)

Description copied from interface: OverrideContainer

Convert the specified virtual override to specified. Return the new override.

Specified by:

convertOverrideToSpecified in interface OverrideContainer

resolveOverriddenColumn

Column resolveOverriddenColumn(java.lang.String attributeName)

Return the column of the mapping or attribute override with the specified attribute name. Return null if it does not exist. This column mapping/attribute override will be found in the mapped superclass (or embeddable), not in the owning entity.
