Interface EntityBean

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

public interface EntityBean
extends Serializable

Bean that is aware of EntityBeanIntercept.

This interface and implementation of these methods is added to Entity Beans via instrumentation. These methods have a funny _ebean_ prefix to avoid any clash with normal methods these beans would have. These methods are not for general application consumption.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
default Object	_ebean_getField(int fieldIndex)	Return the value of a field from an entity bean of this type.
default Object	_ebean_getFieldIntercept(int fieldIndex)	Return the field value with interception.
default EntityBeanIntercept	_ebean_getIntercept()	Return the intercept for this object.
default String	_ebean_getMarker()	Return the enhancement marker value.
default String	_ebean_getPropertyName(int pos)	Return the property name at the given position.
default String[]	_ebean_getPropertyNames()	Return all the property names in defined order.
default EntityBeanIntercept	_ebean_intercept()	Similar to _ebean_getIntercept() except it checks to see if the intercept field is null and will create it if required.
default boolean	_ebean_isEmbeddedNewOrDirty()	Return true if any embedded beans are new or dirty.
default Object	_ebean_newInstance()	Create and return a new entity bean instance.
default void	_ebean_setEmbeddedLoaded()	Generated method that sets the loaded state on all the embedded beans on this entity bean by using EntityBeanIntercept.setEmbeddedLoaded(Object o);
default void	_ebean_setField(int fieldIndex, Object value)	Set the value of a field of an entity bean of this type.
default void	_ebean_setFieldIntercept(int fieldIndex, Object value)	Set the field value with interception.

Method Detail

_ebean_getPropertyNames

default String[] _ebean_getPropertyNames()

Return all the property names in defined order.

_ebean_getPropertyName

default String _ebean_getPropertyName(int pos)

Return the property name at the given position.

_ebean_getMarker

default String _ebean_getMarker()

Return the enhancement marker value.

This is the class name of the enhanced class and used to check that all entity classes are enhanced (specifically not just a super class).

_ebean_newInstance

default Object _ebean_newInstance()

Create and return a new entity bean instance.

_ebean_setEmbeddedLoaded

default void _ebean_setEmbeddedLoaded()

Generated method that sets the loaded state on all the embedded beans on this entity bean by using EntityBeanIntercept.setEmbeddedLoaded(Object o);

_ebean_isEmbeddedNewOrDirty

default boolean _ebean_isEmbeddedNewOrDirty()

Return true if any embedded beans are new or dirty.

_ebean_getIntercept

default EntityBeanIntercept _ebean_getIntercept()

Return the intercept for this object.

_ebean_intercept

default EntityBeanIntercept _ebean_intercept()

Similar to _ebean_getIntercept() except it checks to see if the intercept field is null and will create it if required.

This is really only required when transientInternalFields=true as an enhancement option. In this case the intercept field is transient and will be null after a bean has been deserialised.

This transientInternalFields=true option was to support some serialization frameworks that can't take into account our ebean fields.

_ebean_setField

default void _ebean_setField(int fieldIndex,
                             Object value)

Set the value of a field of an entity bean of this type.

Note that using this method bypasses any interception that otherwise occurs on entity beans. That means lazy loading and oldValues creation.

_ebean_setFieldIntercept

default void _ebean_setFieldIntercept(int fieldIndex,
                                      Object value)

Set the field value with interception.

_ebean_getField

default Object _ebean_getField(int fieldIndex)

Return the value of a field from an entity bean of this type.

Note that using this method bypasses any interception that otherwise occurs on entity beans. That means lazy loading.

_ebean_getFieldIntercept

default Object _ebean_getFieldIntercept(int fieldIndex)

Return the field value with interception.
