Returns:

The java class to which generated proxies will be typed

getEntityNameResolvers

EntityNameResolver[] getEntityNameResolvers()

Get any EntityNameResolvers associated with this Tuplizer.

Returns:

The associated resolvers. May be null or empty.

determineConcreteSubclassEntityName

String determineConcreteSubclassEntityName(Object entityInstance,
                                           SessionFactoryImplementor factory)

Given an entity instance, determine the most appropriate (most targeted) entity-name which represents it. This is called in situations where we already know an entity name for the given entityInstance; we are being asked to determine if there is a more appropriate entity-name to use, specifically within an inheritence hierarchy.

For example, consider a case where a user calls session.update( "Animal", cat );. Here, the user has explicitly provided Animal as the entity-name. However, they have passed in an instance of Cat which is a subclass of Animal. In this case, we would return Cat as the entity-name.

null may be returned from calls to this method. The meaining of null in that case is assumed to be that we should use whatever explicit entity-name the user provided (Animal rather than Cat in the example above).

Parameters:

entityInstance - The entity instance.

factory - Reference to the SessionFactory.

Returns:

The most appropriate entity name to use.

Throws:

HibernateException - If we are unable to determine an entity-name within the inheritence hierarchy.

getIdentifierGetter

Getter getIdentifierGetter()

Retrieve the getter for the identifier property. May return null.

Returns:

The getter for the identifier property.

getVersionGetter

Getter getVersionGetter()

Retrieve the getter for the version property. May return null.

Returns:

The getter for the version property.
