- All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
,Comparable<IdValidation>
,java.lang.constant.Constable
IdValidation configures which id values are considered valid when loading
from the database. This configuration is set either using the
PrimaryKey
annotation or using the ClassDescriptor
API.
This configuration is also used to determine if a sequence number is
required.- Since:
- EclipseLink 1.0

-
NULL
Only null is invalid All other values are considered valid. This is the default configuration when composite identifiers are used and sequencing is not used. -
ZERO
null and 0 are not allowed for primitive int and long ids. This is the default configuration for a simple identifier. -
