buildClone assumes the attribute value exists on the original and can simply be copied.

readFromRowIntoObject assumes that one is building an original.

Both of the above assumptions are false in this method, and actually attempts to do both at the same time.

Extract value from the row and set the attribute to this value in the working copy clone. In order to bypass the shared cache when in transaction a UnitOfWork must be able to populate working copies directly from the row.

See Also:

useBasicIndirection(), dontUseIndirection()

shouldExtendPessimisticLockScope

useBasicIndirection

public void useBasicIndirection()

PUBLIC: Indirection means that a ValueHolder will be put in-between the attribute and the real object. This allows for the reading of the target from the database to be delayed until accessed. This defaults to true and is strongly suggested as it give a huge performance gain.

useBatchReading

public void useBatchReading()

PUBLIC: Indicates whether the referenced object should always be batch read on read all queries. Batch reading will read all of the related objects in a single query when accessed from an originating read all. This should only be used if it is know that the related objects are always required with the source object, or indirection is not used.

useWeavedIndirection

Refer also to transparent indirection for a transparent solution to indirection.

usesIndirection

public boolean usesIndirection()

PUBLIC: Indirection means that some sort of indirection object will be put in-between the attribute and the real object. This allows for the reading of the target from the database to be delayed until accessed. This defaults to true and is strongly suggested as it give a huge performance gain.

setJoinFetch

public void setJoinFetch(int joinFetch)

PUBLIC: Indicates whether the referenced object(s) should always be joined on read queries. Joining will join the two classes tables to read all of the data in a single query. This should only be used if it is know that the related objects are always required with the source object, or indirection is not used. A join-fetch can either use an INNER_JOIN or OUTER_JOIN, if the relationship may reference null or an empty collection an outer join should be used to avoid filtering the source objects from the queries. Join fetch can also be specified on the query, and it is normally more efficient to do so as some queries may not require the related objects. Typically batch reading is more efficient than join fetching and should be considered, especially for collection relationships.
