Class EISDescriptor

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable

public class EISDescriptor
extends ClassDescriptor

An EISDescriptor defines the mapping from a JCA data structure to a Java object. There are two types of EIS descriptors:

• Root - indicates to the TopLink runtime that the EIS descriptor's reference class is a parent class: no other class will reference it by way of a composite object mapping or composite collection mapping. For an EIS root descriptor, EIS interactions can be defined to invoke methods on an EIS
• Composite - indicates to the TopLink runtime that the EIS descriptor's reference class may be referenced by a composite object mapping or composite collection mapping

Overrides:

addDirectMapping in class ClassDescriptor

addPrimaryKeyFieldName

public void addPrimaryKeyFieldName(java.lang.String fieldName)

PUBLIC: Specify the primary key field. This should be called for each field that make up the primary key. For EIS XML Descriptors use the addPrimaryKeyField(DatabaseField) API and supply an org.eclipse.persistence.oxm.XMLField parameter instead of using this method

Overrides:

addPrimaryKeyFieldName in class ClassDescriptor

See Also:

#addMultipleTableForeignKeyFieldName(String, String);

setSequenceNumberFieldName

public void setSequenceNumberFieldName(java.lang.String fieldName)

PUBLIC: Set the sequence number field name. This is the field in the descriptors table that needs its value to be generated. This is normally the primary key field of the descriptor.

Aggregates use a dummy table as default.

Overrides:

extractDefaultTable in class ClassDescriptor
