protected TypeFactory.TypeScope scope()

isAssociationType

public boolean isAssociationType()

An entity type is a type of association type

Specified by:

isAssociationType in interface Type

Overrides:

isAssociationType in class AbstractType

Returns:

True.

isEntityType

public final boolean isEntityType()

Explicitly, an entity type is an entity type ;)

Specified by:

isEntityType in interface Type

Overrides:

isEntityType in class AbstractType

Returns:

True.

isMutable

public boolean isMutable()

Description copied from interface: Type

Are objects of this type mutable. (With respect to the referencing object ... entities and collections are considered immutable because they manage their own internal state.)

Specified by:

isMutable in interface Type

Returns:

boolean

toString

public String toString()

Generates a string representation of this type.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

string rep

getName

public String getName()

For entity types, the name correlates to the associated entity name.

Specified by:

getName in interface Type

Returns:

String the Hibernate type name

isReferenceToPrimaryKey

public boolean isReferenceToPrimaryKey()

Does this association foreign key reference the primary key of the other table? Otherwise, it references a property-ref.

Returns:

True if this association reference the PK of the associated entity.

getRHSUniqueKeyPropertyName

public String getRHSUniqueKeyPropertyName()

Description copied from interface: AssociationType

The name of a unique property of the associated entity that provides the join key (null if the identifier of an entity, or key of a collection)

Specified by:

getRHSUniqueKeyPropertyName in interface AssociationType

getLHSPropertyName

public String getLHSPropertyName()

Description copied from interface: AssociationType

Get the name of a property in the owning entity that provides the join key (null if the identifier)

Specified by:

getLHSPropertyName in interface AssociationType

getPropertyName

public String getPropertyName()

getAssociatedEntityName

public final String getAssociatedEntityName()

The name of the associated entity.

Returns:

The associated entity name.

getAssociatedEntityName

public String getAssociatedEntityName(SessionFactoryImplementor factory)

The name of the associated entity.

Specified by:

getAssociatedEntityName in interface AssociationType

Parameters:

factory - The session factory, for resolution.

Returns:

The associated entity name.

getAssociatedJoinable in interface AssociationType

Parameters:

getReturnedClass

public final Class getReturnedClass()

This returns the wrong class for an entity with a proxy, or for a named entity. Theoretically it should return the proxy class, but it doesn't.

The problem here is that we do not necessarily have a ref to the associated entity persister (nor to the session factory, to look it up) which is really needed to "do the right thing" here...

Specified by:

getReturnedClass in interface Type

Returns:

The entiyt class.

                   Object y)

Description copied from interface: Type

Perform a Comparator style comparison between values

Specified by:

compare in interface Type

Overrides:

compare in class AbstractType

Parameters:

x - The first value

Specified by:

deepCopy in interface Type

Parameters:

replace

public Object replace(Object original,
                      Object target,

                      Map copyCache)
               throws HibernateException

Description copied from interface: Type

During merge, replace the existing (target) value in the entity we are merging to with a new (original) value from the detached entity we are merging. For immutable objects, or null values, it is safe to simply return the first parameter. For mutable objects, it is safe to return a copy of the first parameter. For objects with component values, it might make sense to recursively replace component values.

Specified by:

replace in interface Type

Parameters:

original - the value from the detached entity being merged

target - the value in the managed entity

session - The originating session

owner - The owner of the value

copyCache - The cache of already copied/replaced values

Returns:

the value to be merged

Throws:

HibernateException - An error from Hibernate

getHashCode

public int getHashCode(Object x,
                       SessionFactoryImplementor factory)

Description copied from interface: Type

Get a hash code, consistent with persistence "equality". Again for most types the normal usage is to delegate to the value's hashCode.

Specified by:

getHashCode in interface Type

Overrides:

getHashCode in class AbstractType

Parameters:

x - The value for which to retrieve a hash code

factory - The session factory

Returns:

The hash code

isEqual

public boolean isEqual(Object x,
                       Object y,
                       SessionFactoryImplementor factory)

Description copied from interface: Type

Compare two instances of the class mapped by this type for persistence "equality" (equality of persistent state).

This should always equate to some form of comparison of the value's internal state. As an example, for something like a date the comparison should be based on its internal "time" state based on the specific portion it is meant to represent (timestamp, date, time).

Specified by:

isEqual in interface Type

Overrides:

isEqual in class AbstractType

Parameters:

x - The first value

y - The second value

factory - The session factory

Returns:

True if there are considered equal (see discussion above).
