Annotation Type ResultColumn

@Documented
@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Target(value=FIELD)
public @interface ResultColumn

Annotation that allows for the field of a data class for a given DataSet to be mapped to a column of a SQL result set that is returned by invoking a method decorated by a Select annotation.

Overview

The ResultColumn annotation can also be used to indicate that a data class field is to be used to uniquely identify a row when a DataSet is used in a disconnected mode.

In the example below, the ResultColumn annotation is used to specify that the Mammal.weight field corresponds to the column kilos in the result set that is returned by invoking the method getAllMammals.

 public class Mammal {
     public String name;
     public String description;
     public @ResultColumn("kilos") int weight;
 }
 

 // Obtain an instance of the Query interface, Queries
 Queries myQueries = con.createQueryObject(Queries.class)
 DataSet<Mammal> rows = myQueries.getAllMammals();
 for( Mammal row :rows) {
     System.out.print("name: " + row.name + ", weight: " + row.weight);
 }
