Interface Content

All Known Subinterfaces:

ContentRemote, Document, DocumentRemote

All Known Implementing Classes:

FastContentImpl

public interface Content

extends java.io.Serializable, ConfigurableEntity

The content object is used to provide access to any type of content.

This is the base interface for all Content objects. In general, you should only typecast to this interface and not to the ContentRemote interface.

It has a unique identifier and a mimeType. The mimeType is used to describe to the user which application to use to interpret the specific content. The content home will also have a specialized finder that uses the Search class to specify a sql-like expression.

 Primary Key = com.beasys.commerce.axiom.content.ContentPk
 

Attribute: identifier

• Containment: By Value
• Multiplicity: 1:1
• PRIMARY KEY FIELD
• The unique id of the Content.

Attribute: mimeType

• Containment: By Value
• Multiplicity: 1:1
• The MIME type of the Content.

When constructing queries for Contents, the above property/attribute names will compare against the explicit attributes on the Content interface. For example, to find content whose mime type matches "application/x-*", you could use a query string like "mimeType like 'application/x-*'".
