Class EntityListenerMetadata

java.lang.Object
org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metadata.ORMetadata
org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metadata.listeners.EntityListenerMetadata
All Implemented Interfaces:
Cloneable
Direct Known Subclasses:
EntityClassListenerMetadata
public class EntityListenerMetadata extends ORMetadata implements Cloneable
A MetadataEntityListener and is placed on the owning entity's descriptor. Callback methods from an EntityListener require a signature on the method. Namely, they must have an Object parameter. Key notes: - any metadata mapped from XML to this class must be compared in the equals method. - when loading from annotations, the constructor accepts the metadata accessor this metadata was loaded from. Used it to look up any 'companion' annotation needed for processing. - methods should be preserved in alphabetical order.
