RowDef

public RowDef()

Method Detail

getRowClass

public abstract java.lang.Class getRowClass()

Returns:

The instance object Class.

getAttributeDefImpls

protected abstract AttributeDefImpl[] getAttributeDefImpls()

getDefName

public java.lang.String getDefName()

Description copied from interface: StructureDef

Returns the structure's base definition name (short form). Note that, in some cases, a StructureDef may have an instance name and definition name. For example, for a View Object, getName() returns the VO's instance name and getDefName() returns the View definition's name.

Specified by:

getDefName in interface StructureDef

Returns:

name of the structure's base definition.

getDefFullName

public java.lang.String getDefFullName()

Description copied from interface: StructureDef

Returns the fully qualified name of the structure's base definition. Note that, in some cases, a StructureDef may have an instance name and definition name. For example, for a View Object, getFullName() returns the VO's full instance name and getDefFullName() returns the View definition's full name.

Specified by:

getDefFullName in interface StructureDef

Returns:

fully qualified name of the structure's base definition.

getDiscrColumns

protected AttributeDefImpl[] getDiscrColumns()

Returns the AttributeDef's of the discriminator columns.

Returns:

an array attribute definitions of the discriminator columns.

setDiscrColumns

protected void setDiscrColumns(AttributeDefImpl[] discrCols)

Sets the AttributeDef's of the discriminator columns.

Parameters:

discrCols - an array attribute definitions of the discriminator columns.

discrValuesQualify

protected boolean discrValuesQualify(java.lang.Object[] values)

findDefForDiscrValues

protected RowDef findDefForDiscrValues(java.lang.Object[] values,
                                       boolean recurse)

getBindingStyle

public int getBindingStyle()

Returns the Oracle or JDBC binding style defined for this Entity definition. The integer values and their meaning are determined by the SQLBuilder interface.

Returns:

an integer representing the Oracle or JDBC binding style. The returns values can be:

• -1 - unknown
• 0 - JDBC
• 1 - Oracle

See Also:

SQLBuilder

setBindingStyle

public void setBindingStyle(int bindingStyle)

Sets the Oracle or JDBC binding style defined for this Entity definition. The integer values and their meaning are determined by the SQLBuilder interface.

Parameters:

bindingStyle - an integer representing the Oracle or JDBC binding style for this Entity definition. The possible values can be:

• -1 unknown
• 0 JDBC
• 1 Oracle

See Also:

SQLBuilder

getAliasName

public java.lang.String getAliasName()

Returns the database alias that was declared for this definition object at Design-Time.

Returns:

the alias for this definition object as a String.

setAliasName

public void setAliasName(java.lang.String s)

setMessageBundleClass

public void setMessageBundleClass(java.lang.Class collClass)

Internal: Applications should not use this method.

Sets the implementation class for this Object's Message Bundle class.

Parameters:

collClass - the message bundle implementation class.

getMessageBundleClass

public java.lang.Class getMessageBundleClass()

Internal: Applications should not use this method.

Returns the class of the reference object.

Returns:

the class of the reference object.

getAttributeDefs
