The implementation of the ViewObject interface, the middle-tier class that manages database queries and the view rows that result from executing queries.

A View Object manages a view row set (ViewRowSetImpl). When the application calls a RowSet method on a View Object, the call is delegated to the its view row set, which performs the actual operation.

A View Object's base definition is provided by a View Definition object, which is built from the meta-data stored in an XML file. The View Object inherits many of its definitions from its View Definition, but applications can override them in instances.

A View Object persists until it, or the Application Module from which it was created, is explicitly deleted (using remove methods). You can use a given View Object definition more than once within an Application Module; the Business Component framework uses View instance names to distinguish between them.

mUsePersColl

public static boolean mUsePersColl

The meaning of this static field has changed.

Before 9.0.2, we had two different ways of handling rows in a QueryCollection. The first used use Vector and the second used PCollection. Before 9.0.2, this field controlled which of these two ways would be used. If the user specifies jbo.user.pers.coll config parameter, it would set this field directly.

By 9.0.3, the Vector approach was effectively obsoleted. This flag was still present and could be used to choose the Vector approach. However, that was strongly discouraged. Having two different row management strategy was confusing and proned to problems. If the user specified jbo.use.pers.coll=false or true, that config param no longer affected this field. Regardless of the config param value, we used the PCollection approach. It instead controlled whether the PColl manager (owned by the DBTransactionImpl object) has a database persistence manager or not. If false, the PColl manager is created with no DB persistence manager. This means spill-to-disk will occur for no View Objects, regardless of the View Definition's PCollection related parameters.

If the user set this flag to false programmatically (which was still possible), we went with the Vector row management approach, but that code path was scarecely tested.

In 9.0.5, we removed the Vector management logic altogether. This static flag is still here. It now carries a slightly different meaning. When a QueryCollection is created, If this flag is false, and if the View Definition does not have a specific max-active-nodes value, it uses -1 as the max-active-nodes value, i.e., that View Object will not spill rows to disk.

The jbo.use.pers.coll config param has not changed its meaning. Thus, if jbo.use.pers.coll=false, no spill-to-disk will occur for all View Objects. Contrast that with jbo.pers.max.active.nodes=-1, which means no spill-to-disk for View Objects that do not have a max-active-nodes value in its View Definition. Setting mUsePersColl=false will have the same effect.

resetSelectedAttributeDefs

public void resetSelectedAttributeDefs(boolean forceSelectAllAttributes)

Does not select or unselect any attributes, but clears the private member variable of ViewObjectImpl that holds the attributes that should be selected. To execute a view object in SI mode, the user should typically call resetSelectedAttributeDefs(), followed by selectAttributeDefs and unselectAttributeDefs any number of times, followed by executeQuery() or similar function such as first(). If resetSelectedAttributeDefs is not called, selectAttributeDefs and unselectAttributeDefs may have no effect or may throw a NullPointerException. If none of these functions are called prior to executeQuery, then all attributes will be selected.

Parameters:

forceSelectAllAttributes - false means select only the force active attributes (ie. those that have Selected In Query = true, such as the primary key), and true means select all attributes

See Also:

selectAttributeDefs(String[])

resetSelectedAttributeDefs

public void resetSelectedAttributeDefs()

Calls resetSelectedAttributeDefs(false).

See Also:

resetSelectedAttributeDefs(boolean)

selectAttributeDefs

public void selectAttributeDefs(java.lang.String[] attrNameArray)

Does not select or unselect any attributes, but adds the attributes in attrNameArray to a private member variable of ViewObjectImpl. A call to isExecuted or execute will actually select the attributes. At that time, ADF will automatically select dependent attributes. Note that if in the first execution of this view object only A and B were active, and if prior to the second execution the user called resetSelectedAttributeDefs followed by selectAttributeDefs to activate C, then in the second execution only C will be active.

Parameters:

attrNameArray - The attributes to activate in the next call to buildQuery or isExecuted

See Also:

resetSelectedAttributeDefs(), unselectAttributeDefs(String[])

unselectAttributeDefs

public void unselectAttributeDefs(java.lang.String[] attrNameArray)

Does not select or unselect any attributes, but removes the attributes in attrNameArray from a private member variable of ViewObjectImpl. Note that force active attributes (ie. those that have Selected In Query = true, such as the primary key), will never be unselected.

Parameters:

attrNameArray - The attributes to activate in the next call to buildQuery or isExecuted

See Also:

resetSelectedAttributeDefs(), selectAttributeDefs(String[])

processNewSelectSet

protected void processNewSelectSet()

Activate the attributes selected in calls to selectAttributeDefs, unselectAttributeDefs. In other words, activate the attributes in the private member variable of ViewObjectImpl that holds the fields that should be selected.

Derived classes may override this method to select additional attributes. But remember to call the superclass function.

this function also handles the case when no new attributes have been selected, but the view criteria or order by have changed.

See Also:

resetSelectedAttributeDefs(), selectAttributeDefs(String[]), unselectAttributeDefs(String[]), processNewSelectSetSimple()

isEntityReferenceSelected

protected boolean isEntityReferenceSelected(EntityReference eRef)

Tell whether the given entity reference has been selected (ie. if any attributes from the entity usage have been selected). If we're not in runtime SQL generation mode (ie. SI mode or declarative SQL mode), or if eRef is null, this function returns true.

Parameters:

eRef - Has this entity reference been selected for the current query

Returns:

true if the entity reference has been selected

defineNamedWhereClauseParam

public void defineNamedWhereClauseParam(java.lang.String name,
                                        java.lang.Object defaultValue,
                                        int[] indices)

Description copied from interface: RowSet

Defines a named bind variable to use with the view object's where-clause.

This named where-clause parameter will be defined as a variable on the view object. That is, if a named where-clause parameter is defined through one row set, all other row sets that belongs to the same parent view object will "see" that parameter.

Through the defaultValue, one can specify the default value for this where-clause parameter. If no default value is supplied, null will be used as the parameter value.

The indices parameter specifies where-clause parameter indices into which this named parameter will be bound. The same value can be bound into multiple indices. For example, if { 1, 2 } is specified for indices, the value will be bound for where-clause parameter indices of 1 and 2. I.e., this parameter will produce setWhereClauseParam(1, value) and setWhereClauseParam(2, value).

This method can be invoked to redefine an existing named where-clause paramter (to change the default value and the indices) only if the named parameter is found on the view object. If the named parameter/variable is found on one of the parent objects, a new where-clause parameter definition is still added to the view object.

When redefining, a check is made to ensure that the existing variable has no kind specification (null) or is of the "where" kind (which means that the existing variable is a where-clause parameter). If not, an InvalidParamException is thrown.

Defining a named where-clause parameter does not automatically execute the query. You must call RowSet.executeQuery() to apply the new bind value.

Specified by:

defineNamedWhereClauseParam in interface RowSet

Parameters:

name - the name of the where-clause parameter.

defaultValue - specifies the default value for this where-clause parameter. This default value can be overridden through a call to setNamedWhereClauseParam().

indices - where-clause indices into which this parameter value should be bound. See above.

removeNamedWhereClauseParam

public void removeNamedWhereClauseParam(java.lang.String name)

Description copied from interface: RowSet

Removes a named where-clause parameter.

This method removes previously defined named where-clause parameter. A check is made to ensure that the variable being removed is a where-clause parameter (variable kind = "where"). If not, an InvalidParamException is thrown.

If the named where-clause parameter is found but it does not belong to the view object that owns this row set, an InvalidOperException is thrown. This means one is disallowed from removing a named where-clause parameter that belongs to the View definition, for example.

Removing a named where-clause parameter does not automatically execute the query. You must call RowSet.executeQuery() for the removal to take effect.

Specified by:

removeNamedWhereClauseParam in interface RowSet

Parameters:

name - the name of the where-clause parameter to remove.

getNamedWhereClauseParam

public java.lang.Object getNamedWhereClauseParam(java.lang.String name)

Description copied from interface: RowSet

Description copied from interface: RowSet

Sets the value of a named where-clause parameter for this row set.

If the view object owns multiple row sets, each row set may have its own (different) named where-clause parameter value.

Setting a named where-clause parameter does not automatically execute the query. You must call RowSet.executeQuery() to apply the new bind value.

Specified by:

setNamedWhereClauseParam in interface RowSet

Parameters:

name - the name of the where-clause parameter.

value - the where-clause parameter value for this row set.

skipNamedWhereClauseParam

public void skipNamedWhereClauseParam(java.lang.String name)

Description copied from interface: RowSet

Skips the named where-clause parameter for this row set. This method does not remove the named where-clause parameter. However, it "masks out" the named where-clause parameter, so that the parameter is skipped when the query is executed.

Skipping a named where-clause parameter does not automatically execute the query. You must call RowSet.executeQuery() for the skip to take effect.

Specified by:

skipNamedWhereClauseParam in interface RowSet

Parameters:

name - the name of the where-clause parameter.

setWhereClauseParam

public void setWhereClauseParam(int index,
                                java.lang.Object value)

Sets a specified the bind value, by index position. This method delegates its call to the default RowSet.

The new WHERE clause parameter value does not take effect until executeQuery is invoked.

In the following exmple, setWhereClause uses a hard-coded value for the the WHERE clause, and setWhereClauseParam specifies userID for the first (index=0) parameter position.

  ViewObject xVO = getUsersAvailableAssetsVO();
       String whereClause = "ASSET_ID = 100315";
       System.out.println("setWhereClause("+whereClause+") with
 setWhereClauseParam() after");
       xVO.setWhereClause(whereClause);
       xVO.setWhereClauseParam(0, userId);
       xVO.executeQuery();
       printVO(xVO);

Parameters:

index - the position of the bind value.

value - the bind value.

setNamedWhereClauseParams

public void setNamedWhereClauseParams(AttributeList attrlist)

Sets a specified bind name, value pair. This method delegates its call to the default RowSet.

The new WHERE clause parameter value does not take effect until executeQuery is invoked.

In the following exmple, setNamedWhereClauseParams uses the return value from getNamedWhereClauseParams as its parameters for the the WHERE clause,

  ViewObject xVO = am.findViewObject("DeptView");
       String whereClause = "Dept.DEPTNO = :deptBind";
       System.out.println("setWhereClause("+whereClause+") with
 setWhereClauseParam() after");
       xVO.setWhereClause(whereClause);
       xVO.defineNamedWhereClauseParam("deptBind", null, null);
       xVO.setNamedWhereClauseParam("deptBind",new Number(10));
       AttributeList myattr = xVO.getNamedWhereClauseParams();
       xVO.setNamedWhereClauseParams(myattr);
       xVO.executeQuery();
       printVO(xVO);

getUserDefinedQuery

public java.lang.String getUserDefinedQuery()

Gets the user-defined query, if one exists.

This method is used when the View Object's query is created in Expert Mode. The View Object's query statement is normally built from various clauses, such as FROM, WHERE, and ORDER BY. An application can bypass this mechanism by supplying a complete query though setQuery.

prepareVOForQuery

public void prepareVOForQuery()

Prepare view object for build query. In non SI mode, do nothing. In SI mode,

• activate the attributes in mNewSelectAttrNameset
• activate the attributes that are the source field of links to child view objects
• activate entity objects that are used in the WHERE or ORDER BY or GROUP BY but not the select
• activate join constraint view criteria if necessary

buildRangePagingQuery

protected java.lang.String buildRangePagingQuery(java.lang.String qry,
                                                 int noUserParams)

Applications may use this method to wrap this ViewObject query with rownum query or other mechanism to fetch rows in the current range. Note that bindRangePagingParameters() method will be called to fill in the range values when after other parameters for this query are bound.

bindRangePagingParams

protected void bindRangePagingParams(java.sql.PreparedStatement stmt,
                                     int nextParamIndex,

                                     int rangeSize)

If Applications override buildRangePaging() method to create a custom/wrapped query, they may also override this method to bind any/extra parameters that they add to the query.

getQueryHitCount

public long getQueryHitCount(ViewRowSetImpl viewRowSet)

Counts the number of rows that would be returned if the View Object were executed with the current query.

This method obtains the row count by executing:

    SELECT COUNT(1) FROM query-statement ESTCOUNT
 

Based on the value returned, you might want to adjust the JDBC row prefetch size.

Returns:

the number of rows.

getQueryHitCount

public long getQueryHitCount(ViewRowSetImpl viewRowSet,
                             Row[] masterRows)

                                   long oldCap,
                                   long cap)

This method executes a count query and returns the number of rows that could end up in the rowset. The count query could be very expensive in some scenarios if we were to execute without an upper limit. The method provides a cap argument so that we can execute a query that aborts the count as soon as the cap is met.

Parameters:

viewRowSet - the rowset that will contain the rows when fetched.

masterRows - the master rows are needed to get the parameters in a master detail scenario to bind to the row count query.

oldCap - current not used.

cap - the limit on the count expected

Returns:

+ve number if the row count is less than the limit or limit itself.

buildSelectClause

                                   int noUserParams)

Builds the WHERE clause part of the query and adds it into the string buffer.

The WHERE clause is made up of the following parts:

• WHERE clause expression from View Links. The View Links obtain the WHERE clauses from the detail View Objects.
• WHERE clause expression from the view definition. The view definition has the base WHERE clause that was defined at Design Time.
• WHERE clause expression on the View Object instance. The View Object has its own WHERE clause.

Parameters:

sqlBuffer - StringBuffer into which the WHERE clause is appended.

noUserParams - the number of bind variables in the WHERE clause. Typically, this number is getWhereClauseParams().length.

Returns:

true if a WHERE clause was appended.

buildOrderByClause

protected boolean buildOrderByClause(java.lang.StringBuffer sqlBuffer,
                                     java.lang.String defOrderByClause)

Builds the order-by-clause part of the query and adds it into the string buffer.

The order-by-clause is made up of the following parts:

• Order-by-clause from the view definition. The view definition has the base ORDER BY clause that was defined at Design Time.
• Order-by-clause on the View Object instance. The View Object has its own ORDER BY clause.

Parameters:

sqlBuffer - StringBuffer into which the order-by-clause is appended.

defOrderByClause - order-by-clause from the definition object.

Returns:

true if an order-by-clause was appended.

setQuery

public void setQuery(java.lang.String query)

Sets the user-defined query.

The View Object's query statement is normally built from various clauses, such as FROM, WHERE, and ORDER BY. An application can bypass this mechanism by using this method to supply a complete query. The new query statement does not take effect until executeQuery is invoked.

Parameters:

query - a user-defined query statement.

Throws:

InvaildOperException - if this method is called on a View Object that is a detail of a View Link.

getParametersAsStorageTypes

public java.lang.Object[] getParametersAsStorageTypes()

Constructs an array of the bind values used for binding arguments to the query. If the bind values are domain instances the actual data is retrieved from the domain.

The resulting array is a union of the following sets of bind values:

• Bind values supplied by the user through setWhereClauseParam().
• Bind values supplied by the master row, to be used in WHERE clause expressions derived from View Links.

Returns:

the array of the bind values as storage types, or null if none.

getRowClass

public java.lang.Class getRowClass()

Gets the Java class of this View Object's rows. Typically, this will be an instance of the oracle.jbo.server.ViewRowImpl class. If the Row Class (ViewRowImpl) was overridden during the Design Time, override this method.

Returns:

a Java class.

Specified by:

getAttrDefsForEntityAttr in interface ViewObject

Parameters:

eoName - fully qualified name of the entity object.

eoAttrName - entity object attribute name.

Returns:

the array of attribute definitions ov VO attrs that are mapped to the entity attribute. If no view attribute is mapped to the entity attribute, an empty array (of length 0) is returned.

See Also:

getAttrIndicesForEntityAttr(String, String)

getAttrIndicesForEntityAttr

public int[] getAttrIndicesForEntityAttr(java.lang.String eoName,
                                         java.lang.String eoAttrName)

Returns an array of indices of view attributes that are mapped to the entity attribute identified by the entity name (the eoName parameter) and the entity attribute name (the eoAttrName).

Note that it returns an array because more than one view object attribute may be mapped to one entity attribute.

This method can be used to identify view attributes that map into a particular entity object attribute. In particular, if a validation error fails on an entity attribute, this method can be used to find view attributes that map into that entity attribute.

Parameters:

eoName - fully qualified name of the entity object.

eoAttrName - entity object attribute name.

Internal: Applications should not use this method.

Returns the where-clause expression generated from View Links.

Returns:

the where-clause expression generated from View Links.

executeQuery

public void executeQuery()

Executes the query.

This method does not necessarily retrieve data. The View Object's fetch mode determines whether the rows are retrieved immediately or not. If FETCH_AS_NEEDED is specified, the ResultSet is left open, and the rows are retrieved as the user navigates through the row set.

Calling this method will ensure that the user will see the latest data from the database, as well as the data changes that the user has made in the current transaction.

If the user changes the SQL statement, or modifies attributes used by it, view rows that were visible may "disappear" after this method is invoked, and the new WHERE clause takes effect.

When a row set is first instantiated and the application calls a navigational method such as, next(), previous(), first(), or last(), this method is implicitly called.

Upon successful execution of the query, this method fires a RangeRefreshEvent event to RowSetListener's registered with this object, by calling RowSetListener.rangeRefreshed().

                                         int noUserParams)

This method is invoked right before the row set executes the query. If this method is overridden, the custom logic will be applied to all row sets.

In contrast, if the user overrides the view object's executeQuery(), the custom logic in it only applies only when the user calls executeQuery() on the view object. If he calls executeQuery() on secondary row sets, the custom logic in executeQuery() will not apply.

Parameters:

qc - the query collection about to execute the query.

params - the bind parameters that will be applied to the query.

noUserParams - the number of user bind parameters supplied through the setWhereClauseParam calls.

addDynamicAttribute

public AttributeDef addDynamicAttribute(java.lang.String attrName)

Adds a dynamic attribute to this View Object.

You can use a dynamic attribute to store information created at runtime that you want to store with the row data. It is used only by the View Object that created it. Attributes can be any Serializable object.

If this attribute is to be passivated for failover/saveForLater/undo, the attribute-value should be able to recreate itself from its string representations. Types like Hashtables, Vectors etc. will not be handled automatically.

markQueryCollectionDirty

protected void markQueryCollectionDirty(QueryCollection qc,
                                        boolean isDirty)

This method may be used to set or unset the dirty status of a query collection. Its recommended use is during activation, in conjunction with custom passivation of the QC dirty flag.

The method setDirty should not be used, as it updates only a subset of the necessary internal data structures.

Parameters:

qc - the query collection in question. If qc is null, the method does nothing.

isDirty - if true, the QC is marked dirty. If false, the QC is marked clean.

See Also:

QueryCollection.setDirty(boolean)

getFetchMode

public byte getFetchMode()

Gets the current fetch mode.

For more information on fetch modes, see setFetchMode.

Returns:

the fetch mode. Can be FETCH_ALL or FETCH_AS_NEEDED.

See Also:

setFetchMode(byte)

setFetchMode

protected void setFetchMode(byte fetchMode)

Sets the fetch mode.

The fetchMode parameter should be one of the FETCH_... constants. This fetch mode controls how rows are retrieved out of JDBC's ResultSet.

After the query is executed, the row data are retrieved from the ResultSet. If FETCH_AS_NEEDED is specified, the result set is left open and rows are retrieved as the user navigates through the row set. If the user navigates to the end of the row set, the result set is closed.

If FETCH_ALL is specified, all rows are retrieved out of the results set even if the user has not navigated through the row set. After all rows are retrieved, the result set is closed.

Additionally, if FETCH_ALL is specified, any value for setFetchSize(short) is disregarded.

FETCH_DEFAULT is not implemented and should not used.

FETCH_ALL should be used if the number of rows in the row set relatively small and the number of row sets open on the View Object is large. This is because FETCH_ALL enables the user to avoid using up JDBC ResultSets. If FETCH_AS_NEEDED is specified and too many row sets are open (and left open because they are not navigated to the end), the user may run out of ResultSets. On the other hand, if the result set contains many rows, FETCH_ALL may not desirable because it incurs the cost of retrieving all rows up front.

For example, if your application does a lot of work with master-detail tables and the application does not fetch all of the rows from the detail, it could run out of cursors. If this happens, use FETCH_ALL.

Parameters:

fetchMode - the new fetch mode. Can be FETCH_ALL or FETCH_AS_NEEDED.

getBindingStyle

public int getBindingStyle()

Returns the binding style. Can be one of:

• BINDING_STYLE_ORACLE

getViewLinkAccessorInfo

protected ViewLinkAccessorInfo getViewLinkAccessorInfo()

getFetchSize

public short getFetchSize()

Gets the row pre-fetch size.

The framework will use this value to set the JDBC row pre-fetch size. Note that the row pre-fetch size has performance ramifications. A larger fetch size is more expensive in terms of memory usage than a smaller size.

For each View Object, this method is customizable. Deciding what value to use could be made at runtime based on how many rows are expected for a particular View Object.

Returns:

the row pre-fetch size.

getMaxFetchSize

public int getMaxFetchSize()

Gets the maximum row fetch size.

This number is used to set the maximum number of rows to retrieve from JDBC. A value of 0 indicates all rows will be fetched.

Specified by:

getMaxFetchSize in interface ViewObject

Returns:

the maximum row fetch size.

setFetchSize

public void setFetchSize(short size)

Sets the number of rows that JDBC will fetch from the database during one round trip.

The framework will use this value to set the JDBC row pre-fetch size. Note that the row pre-fetch size has performance ramifications. A larger fetch size is more expensive in terms of memory usage than a smaller size. The default fetch size is 1 row.

If the value of setFetchMode(byte) is FETCH_ALL, then the value of setFetchSize is disregarded.

For each View Object, this method is customizable. Deciding what value to use could be made at runtime based on how many rows are expected for a particular View Object.

Parameters:

size - number of rows to fetch from the database. 1 is the default.

See Also:

setFetchMode(byte)

setMaxFetchSize

public void setMaxFetchSize(int size)

Maximum number of rows to fetch for this View Object. This number takes effect the next time the query for this View Object is executed.

Passing -1 to this method will retrieve an unlimited number of rows. In other words, all the row returned by this ViewObject's query result set may be retrieved. This is the default.

Passing 0 to this method will cause the database query not to be executed. The View Object will initially work with an empty row set. If you want to execute query later, call setMaxFetchSize again with a non-zero argument, then call executeQuery().

Specified by:

setMaxFetchSize in interface ViewObject

Parameters:

size - the maximum number of rows to fetch. The default, -1, retrieves an unlimited number of rows. 0 causes the query not to be executed, and row set is empty.

Calling this method does not cause automatically cause the new query mode to go into effect. Call RowSet.executeQuery() to apply the new query mode.

Specified by:

addQueryMode in interface ViewObject

Parameters:

queryMode - the new query mode to be added (OR'ed).

createViewCriteria

public ViewCriteria createViewCriteria()

isForScan

public boolean isForScan()

getScanRowFilterAttributeDefs

public AttributeDef[] getScanRowFilterAttributeDefs()

setKeyAttributeDefs

public void setKeyAttributeDefs(int[] keyIndices)

Advanced method: Sets the key attributes for this ViewObject to be the attributes at the given indices.

This method could be used to shorten the Key object for the rows of this ViewObject, if this ViewObject has a number of referenced entities and only one or a few updateable Entities, as long as

1. each row in the ViewObject is uniquely identifiable from the given set of key-attributes

2. the primary key of referenced entities are not updated in the cache. e.g, In case of EmpDeptView where Dept is referenced Entity if new Dept rows are added to the cache but not posted or Dept primary key values are changed, they may not be found by this ViewObject, as the key definition for this ViewObject may not have attribute-parts to identify the Depts in the cache. To avoid such cases, post changes for the Entites that make up references in this ViewObject before using findByKey

isManageRowsByKey

public boolean isManageRowsByKey()

Returns a flag indicating whether this View Object "manages rows by key" or not. This flag is meaningful only for a View Object which is not based on any Entity Object.

If a View Object has an Entity base, then View row cache manages View rows by the Entity rows on which each View row is based. For example, if you call findByKey on an Entity-based View Object, BC4J first locates the Entity row with the given primary key, then goes to this View row cache to find View rows that are based on this Entity row.

A View Object which is not based on any Entity Object does not have an Entity Object by which its rows can be organized. For such a View Object, you have an option to organize its rows by its keys. (For an EO-less View Object, its keys can be specified by setKeyAttributeDefs(int[])). This flag indicates whether the rows should be organized by its keys or not. The default is false.

When this flag is true, a small additional overhead will be added in View row management because of the bookkeeping associated with row management by key. However, findByKey will run faster because rows with match key can be found faster. Further, when this flag is true, findByKey can avoid returning duplicate rows in that the system can check to see if the row with the given key is already in the View row cache or not. If this flag is false, findByKey may cause duplicate rows to show up in the View row cache.

Note that for an EO based View Object, this flag is meaningless as rows are already organized and managed by its constituent Entity rows.

Returns:

a flag indicating whether rows are managed by its keys or not.

setManageRowsByKey

public void setManageRowsByKey(boolean manageRowsByKey)

Sets the flag indicating whethter this View Object "manages rows by key" or not. See isManageRowsByKey() for explanation of flag.

Parameters:

manageRowsByKey - the new flag value. Note that if the View Object is EO-based, this flag is meaningless as rows are already organized and managed by its constituent Entity rows.

getRowSet

public RowSet getRowSet()

Returns the View Object as a RowSet object.

Note that the RowSetIterator.getRowSet() method returns the RowSet that owns the RowSetIterator. Since a View Object is a RowSetIterator, the object that owns the RowSetIterator for that View Object is the View Object itself.

Specified by:

getRowSet in interface RowSetIterator

Returns:

the owning Row Set.

See Also:

RowSetIterator.getRowSet()

getRowSetIterator

public RowSetIterator getRowSetIterator()

Gets the row set iterator interface of this View Object. That is, it returns the View Object as a RowSetIterator object.

Returns:

a row set interface.

next

public Row next()

Navigates to the next row in the row set.

This method delegates to the default RowSetIterator. If this method is called on a row set that has not yet been executed, executeQuery() is implicitly called.

If the current row designation is to change, ViewRowImpl.validate() is called to validate the current row.

The row set has a "slot" before the first row, and one after the last row. When the row set is executed the iterator is positioned at the slot before the first row. If next() is invoked on a newly-executed row, the first row will be returned. If next() is called when the iterator is positioned on the last row of the row set, null is returned and the iterator is positioned at the slot following the last row.

If the iterator is at the last row of the range when next() is called, RowSetListener.rangeScrolled() is called to send ScrollEvent to registered RowSetListeners.

When successful, this method fires a NavigationEvent to registered RowSetListeners, by calling RowSetListener.navigated(). The row returned is designated as the current row.

Specified by:

next in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the next row, or null if no next row.

Throws:

ValidationException - if the prevously current row fails validation.

See Also:

NavigationEvent, RowSetListener, ScrollEvent, ViewRowImpl.validate()

previous

public Row previous()

Navigates to the previous row in the row set.

This method delegates to the default RowSetIterator. If this method is called on a row set that has not yet been executed, executeQuery() is implicitly called.

If the current row designation is to change, ViewRowImpl.validate() is called to validate the current row.

The row set has a "slot" before the first row, and one after the last row. When the row set is executed the iterator is positioned at the slot before the first row. If previous() is called when the iterator is positioned on the first row of the row set, null is returned and the iterator is positioned at the slot preceeding the first row.

If the iterator is at the first row of the range when previous() is called, RowSetListener.rangeScrolled() is called to send ScrollEvent to registeredRowSetListeners.

When successful, this method fires a NavigationEvent to registered RowSetListeners, by calling RowSetListener.navigated(). The row returned is designated as the current row.

Specified by:

previous in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the previous row, or null if no previous row.

Throws:

ValidationException - if the prevously current row fails validation.

See Also:

NavigationEvent, RowSetListener, ScrollEvent, ViewRowImpl.validate()

first

public Row first()

Navigates to the first row in the row set.

This method delegates to the default RowSetIterator. If this method is called on a row set that has not yet been executed, executeQuery() is implicitly called.

If the current row designation is to change, ViewRowImpl.validate() is called to validate the current row.

If the range does not include the first row when next() is called, RowSetListener.rangeScrolled() is called to send ScrollEvent to registered RowSetListeners.

When successful, this method fires a NavigationEvent to registered RowSetListeners, by calling RowSetListener.navigated(). The row returned is designated as the current row.

Specified by:

first in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the first row, or null if the set has no rows.

Throws:

InvalidOperException - if this is called on a forward-only row set, and the iterator has passed the first row.

ValidationException - if the prevously current row fails validation.

See Also:

NavigationEvent, RowSetListener, ViewRowImpl.validate()

last

public Row last()

Navigates to the last row in the row set.

This method delegates to the default RowSetIterator. If this method is called on a row set that has not yet been executed, executeQuery() is implicitly called.

If the current row designation is to change, ViewRowImpl.validate() is called to validate the current row.

This method retrieves rows until the end of row set is found. Thus, this operation may be slow. If the range does not include the last row when next() is called, RowSetListener.rangeScrolled() is called to send ScrollEvent to registered RowSetListeners.

When successful, this method fires a NavigationEvent to registered RowSetListeners, by calling RowSetListener.navigated(). The row returned is designated as the current row.

Specified by:

last in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the last row, or null if the set has no rows.

Throws:

ValidationException - if the prevously current row fails validation.

                                            boolean resetIter,
                                            boolean fillUpRange)

Specified by:

refreshCollection in interface WSRowSetMarshaller

reset

public void reset()

Resets the iterator.

This method delegates to the default RowSetIterator. The iterator is positioned to the slot before the first row, the state of a newly-executed row set.

Specified by:

reset in interface RowIterator

hasNext

public boolean hasNext()

Indicates whether the iterator has a next row.

This method delegates to the default RowSetIterator. If this method is called on a row set that has not yet been executed, executeQuery is implicitly called.

This method does not move the current row.

Specified by:

hasNext in interface RowIterator

Returns:

true if the row set has a next row, or false if not.

hasPrevious

public boolean hasPrevious()

Indicates whether the iterator has a previous row or not.

This method delegates to the default RowSetIterator. If this method is called on a row set that has not yet been executed, executeQuery is implicitly called.

This method does not move the current row.

Specified by:

hasPrevious in interface RowIterator

Returns:

true if the row set a previous row, or false if not.

isRangeAtBottom

public boolean isRangeAtBottom()

Indicates whether the iterator range contains the last row of the row set.

This method delegates to the default RowSetIterator. If this method is called on a row set that has not yet been executed, executeQuery is implicitly called.

This method does not move the current row.

Specified by:

isRangeAtBottom in interface RowIterator

Returns:

true if the range contains the last row, or false if not.

isRangeAtTop

public boolean isRangeAtTop()

Indicates whether the iterator range contains the first row of the row set.

This method delegates to the default RowSetIterator. If this method is called on a row set that has not yet been executed, executeQuery is implicitly called.

This method does not move the current row.

Specified by:

isRangeAtTop in interface RowIterator

Returns:

true if the range contains the first row, or false if not.

getFetchedRowCount

public int getFetchedRowCount()

Counts the number of rows fetched from the JDBC result set.

This method delegates to the default RowSetIterator.

This method can be used to determine whether the View Object has read all the rows from the cursor. For example, getEstimatedRowCount returns an equivalent of count(*) on the View Object. The getFetchedRowCount() method returns the count of rows already fetched. If getFetchedRowCount() returns a value less than getEstimatedRowCount(), then the View Object has not read all rows from the cursor.

Specified by:

getFetchedRowCount in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the number of rows already fetched.

getRowCount

public int getRowCount()

Counts the total number of rows in this row set.

This method retrieves all rows from the View Object by executing the View Object's query and then calling next() until the last row is retrieved. Thus, since it iterates through the View Object one record at a time, this method may be slow.

If you are working with a large number of rows, or if your application demands a fast response, use getEstimatedRowCount to obtain a quicker count.

The following sample code uses getRowCount() to set up separate iterators for even numbered and odd numbered rows:

 // Default iterator gets even-numbered rows.
 // Second iterator gets odd-numbered rows.
 long nRows = vo.getRowCount();
 String msg = "";
 for (int i = 0; i < nRows; i +=2) {

       // Get and set row index values relative to a range.
       // Index of first row = 0.
       vo.setCurrentRowAtRangeIndex(i);
       Row currRow = vo.getCurrentRow();
       msg = "  Default iterator (even): " + vo.getRangeIndexOf(currRow);
       printRow(currRow, msg);

       secondIter.setCurrentRowAtRangeIndex(i + 1);
       currRow = secondIter.getCurrentRow();
       msg = "  Second iterator (odd): " + vo.getRangeIndexOf(currRow);
       printRow(secondIter.getCurrentRow(), msg);
    }
 

Specified by:

getRowCount in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the number of rows in the row set.

See Also:

getEstimatedRowCount()

adjustERCWithChangedRows

public boolean adjustERCWithChangedRows()

getEstimatedRowCount

public long getEstimatedRowCount()

Makes an estimated count of the rows in this row set.

This method estimates the number of rows in the row count by calling getQueryHitCount (which performs a SELECT COUNT (*) FROM table). Internal logic in Business Components for Java keeps the EstimatedRowCount up-to-date as rows are inserted and removed. Thus, after the first call to this method, it can return the estimated count quickly.

For example:

 // Get the rowcount again because of deleted or inserted row
 rowCount = (int) iter.getRowSet().getEstimatedRowCount();
 

If you are working with a large number of rows, or if your application demands a fast response, use this method instead of getRowCount.

Note however, that this method might not be as accurate as getRowCount(). To test whether the View Object has read all the rows from the cursor, you can use getEstimatedRowCount() in conjunction with getFetchedRowCount(). For example, getEstimatedRowCount() returns an equivalent of count(*) on the View Object. The getFetchedRowCount method returns the count of rows already fetched. If getFetchedRowCount() returns a value less than getEstimatedRowCount(), then the View Object has not read all rows from the cursor.

Specified by:

getEstimatedRowCount in interface RowSet

Returns:

an estimate of the number of rows in the row set.

See Also:

getQueryHitCount(ViewRowSetImpl), getFetchedRowCount()

getDeferredEstimatedRowCount

public long getDeferredEstimatedRowCount()

Description copied from interface: RowSet

If this ViewObject is marked to not perform the estimatedRowCount query, then return -1 until either the estimatedRowCount is called and the count is known or the RowSet is fetched completely in which case the actual row count is known.

Specified by:

getDeferredEstimatedRowCount in interface RowSet

Returns:

-1 until either EstimatedRowCount or real RowCount is known.

getDetailEstimatedRowCount

public long getDetailEstimatedRowCount(Row[] masterRows)

Specified by:

getDetailEstimatedRowCount in interface WSRowSetMarshaller

getCappedRowCount

public long getCappedRowCount(long cap)

This method executes a count query and returns the number of rows that could end up in the rowset. The count query could be very expensive in some scenarios if we were to execute without an upper limit. The method provides a cap argument so that we can execute a query that aborts the count as soon as the cap is met.

Specified by:

getCappedRowCount in interface RowSet

Parameters:

cap - the limit on the count expected

Returns:

+ve number if the row count is less than the limit, a -cap number if the row count is possibly greater than the cap.

getDefaultRangeSize

public int getDefaultRangeSize()

setDefaultRangeSize

public void setDefaultRangeSize(int i)

setRangeSize

public int setRangeSize(int size)

Sets the range size for the iterator.

The following code example creates one View Object, uses the default iterator to display one row at a time, and creates a second iterator on the same View Object to display a range of five rows.

  // Create the View Object within the context defined by the
  // Application Module. The View Object provides a default iterator.
     ViewObject vo = appMod.createViewObject(voName, voDefFile);

  // Create another iterator.
     RowSetIterator secondIter = vo.createRowSetIterator("Two");
     secondIter.setRangeSize(5);
 

Specified by:

setRangeSize in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

size - the new range size, or -1 if all rows are to be included.

Returns:

the new range size.

Throws:

InvalidOperException - if the iterator is forward-only and size is greater than 1.

See Also:

RowIterator.setRangeStart(int)

getRangeSize

public int getRangeSize()

Returns the range size of the iterator.

A range size of -1 indicates that the range will contain all the rows of the row set.

The following code sample uses this method as a parameter to scrollRange. Assume that printRows is a helper routine defined elsewhere.

  // Use the second iterator to print a range of rows.
     secondIter.scrollRange(secondIter.getRangeSize());
     printRows(secondIter.getAllRowsInRange());
 

Specified by:

getRangeSize in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the range size.

getRangeStart

public int getRangeStart()

Returns the absolute row index of the first row in the range.

An absolute row index is a row index in the entire row set.

For an example usage of this method, see setRangeStart

Specified by:

getRangeStart in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the absolute row index of the first row in the range.

setRangeStart

public int setRangeStart(int start)

Positions the range.

This method scrolls the range to make the row of the specified start index the first row of the range. If successful, RowSetListener.rangeScrolled() is called to send a ScrollEvent to registered RowSetListener.

If start indicates a row beyond the last row, the range will be scrolled to the end of the row set.

In the following code sample, the range starts with the fourth row. Assume that printRows is a helper function defined elsewhere.

    vo.setRangeStart(4);
    vo.setRangeSize(3);
    // this command prints rows 4 - 6.
    printRows(vo.getAllRowsInRange(), vo.getRangeStart());
 

Specified by:

setRangeStart in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

start - an absolute row index.

Returns:

the absolute row index of the first row of the resulting range.

See Also:

ScrollEvent, RowSetListener

scrollRange

public int scrollRange(int amount)

Scrolls the range.

The number of rows to scroll, amount, may be positive or negative. If negative, the range is scrolled upward (backward).

The following code sample scrolls the range two rows backwards.

 // Range window scrolls 2 rows backwards. Range size stays the same.
    vo.scrollRange(-2); // Positive scrolls forward, negative scrolls back.
 

If amount would scroll the range beyond either end of the row set, this method scrolls to that end of the range. After the range is scrolled, this method calls RowSetListener.rangeScrolled() to send a ScrollEvent to registered RowSetListeners.

Specified by:

scrollRange in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

amount - the number of rows to scroll.

Returns:

the actual number of rows scrolled. A negative number indicates an upward scroll.

Throws:

InvalidOperException - if this method is called on on a forward-only row set and amount is negative.

See Also:

ScrollEvent, RowSetListener

scrollToRangePage

public int scrollToRangePage(int amount)

Description copied from interface: RowSetIterator

Moves the row set range start to the given page index where every page consists of RangeSize number of rows. PageIndex should start at page number 1. This method calculates the rowIndex that should start at that page and then scrolls the iterator to start at that row by using the following calculation:

(rangeSize * (pageSize-1)) - getRangeStart();

Specified by:

scrollToRangePage in interface RowSetIterator

Parameters:

amount - the page number to go to in the result set.

Returns:

the number of rows actually scrolled.

getEstimatedRangePageCount

public int getEstimatedRangePageCount()

Description copied from interface: RowSetIterator

Returns getEstimatedRowCount()/rangePageSize, if rangeSize > 0. For rangeSize <= 0, returns 1.

This number may fluxuate when the View Object is syncronized with its Entity Object.

Specified by:

getEstimatedRangePageCount in interface RowSetIterator

Returns:

the number of range-pages that this RowSet collection has.

scrollRangeTo

public int scrollRangeTo(Row row,
                         int index)

Scrolls the range to a specified row.

This method scrolls the range to position the specified row at a specified range index. This operation may be slow.

After the range is scrolled, this method calls RowSetListener.rangeScrolled() to send a ScrollEvent to registered RowSetListeners.

Specified by:

scrollRangeTo in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

row - the row to scroll the range to.

index - the range index at which row is to be positioned.

Returns:

the actual number of rows scrolled. A negative number indicates an upward scroll.

Throws:

InvalidParamException - thrown if index is outside the range, or if row is not found in the row set.

InvalidOperException - thrown if this method is called on on a forward-only row set.

See Also:

ScrollEvent, RowSetListener

getRow

public Row getRow(Key key)

Returns the first row matching a given key.

This method retrieves rows from the database until a match is found or the end of the row set is reached.

If this View Object has multiple Entity Objects, the key need not be specified for all. When this is the case multiple rows may match the key. The first of these rows will be returned. This method differs from findByKey in the following respects:

• getRow returns one row only, findByKey() returns multiple rows.
• getRow populates the collection until it finds a match, but findByKey retrieves rows first from the cache and then from the database, and does not populate the collection.
• findByKey may be much faster than getRow.
• getRow returns the first matching row, findByKey may retrieve rows in the order not specified by the query.

This method does not fire any navigation event, nor does it move the range or the current row.

Specified by:

getRow in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

key - the key to be matched.

Returns:

the first matching row, or null if none match.

See Also:

findByKey(Key, int)

getRowAtRangeIndex

public Row getRowAtRangeIndex(int index)

Returns the row at a given range position.

Specified by:

getRowAtRangeIndex in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

index - a zero-based index within the range.

Returns:

the row at the specified range index, or null if index is outside of the range.

getRowFromHandle

public Row getRowFromHandle(java.lang.Object hdl)

Internal: Applications should not use this method.

Returns the row with a handle specified by hdl.

A view row can be assigned a handle unique in the running session (ViewRowImpl.getHandle). This handle can be used to get back the row. This method returns the row given the row handle.

The row handle is valid only within the running session and may not be persisted across sessions.

This method is an internal routine. The client should use the row's key (ViewRowImpl.getKey) if he wishes to get the row back at a later time. Also, the key may be persisted and used across sessions.

Parameters:

hdl - the row handle.

Returns:

the row identified by the row handle.

See Also:

ViewRowImpl.getHandle(), ViewRowImpl.getKey()

removeRowHandle

public void removeRowHandle(java.lang.Object hdl)

Internal: Applications should not use this method.

Removes the row handle from the row handle hash table.

A view row can be assigned a handle unique in the running session (ViewRowImpl.getHandle). This handle can be used to get back the row. This method removes the row handle from the row handle hash table.

Parameters:

hdl - the row handle to remove.

See Also:

ViewRowImpl.getHandle()

getCurrentRow

public Row getCurrentRow()

Returns the current row of the iterator.

This method delegates to the default RowSet iterator. If the row set has not been executed, or if this method is called immediately after the current row is removed, then it returns null (no current row).

Specified by:

getCurrentRow in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the current row. null if no current row.

getCurrentRowIndex

public int getCurrentRowIndex()

Returns the absolute row index of the iterator's current row. An absolute row index is a zero-based index relative to the entire row set.

This method is used in the following example that refreshes a viewPort.

   private void refresh()
   {
      // This is the expensive way where we refresh the entire viewPort
      fireTableDataChanged();
      int rangeRow = iter.getCurrentRowIndex();
      if (rangeRow >= 0) // -1 if null or out of range
      {
         int tableRow = rangeRow + iter.getRangeStart();
         table.setRowSelectionInterval(tableRow, tableRow);
      }
      else
     {
         table.clearSelection();
      }
 

If the row set has not been executed, or the iterator has been reset, -1 is returned.

Specified by:

getCurrentRowIndex in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the absolute row index of the current row, or -1 if there is no current row.

getCurrentRowSlot

public int getCurrentRowSlot()

Returns the current row's slot status.

The current row's slot status is one of the following oracle.jbo.RowIterator constants:

• SLOT_VALID if the iterator is on a valid row.
• SLOT_DELETED if the current row of the iterator was just removed.
• SLOT_BEFORE_FIRST if the iterator is on the slot before the first row.
• SLOT_BEYOND_LAST if the iterator is on the slot after the last row.

The following example uses a switch statement to return a different string message based on the value returned by this method.

    public String getCurrentRowSlot()
   {
      switch (mViewObject.getCurrentRowSlot())
      {
         case mViewObject.SLOT_VALID:
            return new String("SLOT_VALID");

         case mViewObject.SLOT_DELETED:
            return new String("SLOT_DELETED");

         case mViewObject.SLOT_BEFORE_FIRST:
            return new String("SLOT_BEFORE_FIRST");

         case mViewObject.SLOT_BEYOND_LAST:
            return new String("SLOT_BEYOND_LAST");
      }
 

Specified by:

getCurrentRowSlot in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the current row's slot status.

getIterMode

public int getIterMode()

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Gets the current iteration mode. See Iteration Modes above for details on iteration mode which controls how the range behaves when it reaches the end of the Row Set.

Specified by:

getIterMode in interface RowIterator

Returns:

ITER_MODE_LAST_PAGE_PARTIAL if the iteration mode is "partial-last-page", ITER_MODE_LAST_PAGE_FULL if it is "full-last-page".

setIterMode

public void setIterMode(int mode)

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Sets the iteration mode for this Row Iterator. See Iteration Modes above for details on iteration mode which controls how the range behaves when it reaches the end of the Row Set.

Specified by:

setIterMode in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

mode - should be ITER_MODE_LAST_PAGE_PARTIAL if the iteration mode is to be "partial-last-page", ITER_MODE_LAST_PAGE_FULL if it is to be "full-last-page".

isRowValidation

public boolean isRowValidation()

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Gets the validation flag on this iterator. By default a RowIterator validates the current row when navigating to another row. This method returns TRUE if this row-validation is turned off.

Specified by:

isRowValidation in interface RowIterator

setRowValidation

public void setRowValidation(boolean flag)

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Sets the validation flag on this iterator. By default a RowIterator validates the current row when navigating to another row. This method can be used to turn this row-validation off by passing 'false' as parameter.

Specified by:

setRowValidation in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

flag - Whether to turn row validation off or not.

setCurrentRow

public boolean setCurrentRow(Row row)

Designates a given row as the current row.

This method calls ViewRowImpl.validate to validate the previous current row.

After designating row as the current row, this method invokes RowSetListener.navigated() to send a NavigationEvent to registered RowSetListeners.

Specified by:

setCurrentRow in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

row - the row that is to become the current row.

Returns:

true if the current row designation was changed to row.

Throws:

ValidationException - if the previous current row fails validation.

See Also:

NavigationEvent, RowSetListener, ViewRowImpl.validate()

setCurrentRowAtRangeIndex

public boolean setCurrentRowAtRangeIndex(int index)

Designates a row at a specified position as the current row.

This method calls ViewRowImpl.validate to validate the previous current row.

After designating row as the current row, this method invokes RowSetListener.navigated() to send a NavigationEvent to registered RowSetListeners.

Specified by:

setCurrentRowAtRangeIndex in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

index - the position of the row that is to become the current row.

Returns:

true if the current row designation was changed to row.

Throws:

ValidationException - if the previous current row fails validation.

See Also:

NavigationEvent, RowSetListener, ViewRowImpl.validate()

createAndInitRow

public Row createAndInitRow(AttributeList initVals)

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Creates and initializes a new Row object, but does not insert it into the Row Set. This method differs from createRow() mainly in that this method allows the user to pass in a list of name-value pairs with which row attributes are initialized.

nvp is a named value pair. When building an nvp from scratch, use NameValuePairs to build a new nvp. Here is an example:

    NameValuePairs nvp = new NameValuePairs();
    nvp.setAttribute("EmpTyp", "C");

    Row row = voEmp.createAndInitRow(nvp);
 

This method is particularly useful when creating a subclass View Row or Entity Row. You can include polymorphic discriminator attribute values in nvp and correct subclass row object will be created.

When this method is called, underlying entities are created. After the new entities are created, a new view row is created. After that ViewRowImpl.create(oracle.jbo.AttributeList) is called with this nvp. ViewRowImpl.create(AttributeList) walks thru the list of entities and calls EntityImpl.create(AttributeList) with the same nvp for each entity in the view row.

Specified by:

createAndInitRow in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

initVals - a list of name-value pairs.

Returns:

a new Row object.

createRow

public Row createRow()

Creates a new view row. The new row is not placed in the entity cache until its primary key is initialized. It is inserted into the database when changes are posted to database and the transaction is committed.

Note that the constituent entities will be added to the entity-cache if the primary key of these entites are populated/set when the relevant entity's create() method is called. PrimaryKey attributes of Bc4J generated ID types (like RowID, DBSequence, etc) are defaulted before Entity.create and thus entities with such types as Primary Key attribute will be placed in the entity cache during create.

Following is a short example of a helper routine that uses this method to add a row to a View Object.

  public static void addRow(ApplicationModule appMod, ViewObject vo) {
    // Create a row and fill in the columns.
         Row newRow = vo.createRow();
         newRow.setAttribute("Deptno", new Number(14));
         newRow.setAttribute("Dname", "Pubs");
         newRow.setAttribute("Loc", "Honolulu");
         vo.insertRow(newRow);
 

Specified by:

createRow in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the new view row.

insertRow

public void insertRow(Row row)

Inserts a row into the row set.

The row is inserted at the current row position and becomes the current row. The indices for rows below the insertion point are incremented.

Upon successful insertion, this method invokes RowSetListener.rowInserted() to send a InsertEvent to registered RowSetListeners.

If you want to insert a row but not change currency consider using insertRowAtRangeIndex.

Specified by:

insertRow in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

row - the view row to insert.

insertRowAtRangeIndex

public void insertRowAtRangeIndex(int index,
                                  Row row)

Inserts a row into the row set at the specified range position.

The row is inserted at the given range index. The indices for rows below the insertion point are incremented.

Note that this method does not change currency. Upon successful insertion, this method invokes RowSetListener.rowInserted() to send a InsertEvent to registered RowSetListeners.

Specified by:

insertRowAtRangeIndex in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

index - the range index at which row is to be inserted.

row - the view row to insert.

removeCurrentRow

public void removeCurrentRow()

Removes the current row.

This method marks constituent Entity Object rows as deleted. When changes are posted to database or transaction committed, the database rows are deleted.

Upon successful removal of the row, the current row position does not move. However, the current row is set to null, and its slot status is set to SLOT_DELETED. Calling next() or previous() after removal will return a row adjacent to the removed row.

After removing the row, this method invokes RowSetListener.rowDeleted() to send a DeleteEvent to registered RowSetListeners.

Specified by:

removeCurrentRow in interface RowIterator

See Also:

RowSetListener.rowDeleted(oracle.jbo.DeleteEvent)

removeCurrentRowFromCollection

public void removeCurrentRowFromCollection()

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Removes the current Row object from the collection.

It does not cause the row to be deleted from the database table. It just removes the row from the row collection. However, once the row is removed, it cannot be used any more. If you want to remove the current row from collection and insert it elsewhere, call RowIterator.removeCurrentRowAndRetain(), change currency to the desired location, and then call RowIterator.insertRow(oracle.jbo.Row) with that row.

Specified by:

removeCurrentRowFromCollection in interface RowIterator

removeCurrentRowAndRetain

public Row removeCurrentRowAndRetain()

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Removes the current Row object from the collection and retain it for insertion into another location.

It does not cause the row to be deleted from the database table. It just removes the row from the row collection.

This method differs from RowIterator.removeCurrentRowFromCollection() in that after the current row is removed from the collection, it can be inserted back into the collection at another location.

To do so, call RowIterator.removeCurrentRowAndRetain(), and get the returning row. Then, change currency to the desired location, and call RowIterator.insertRow(oracle.jbo.Row) with that row.

Specified by:

removeCurrentRowAndRetain in interface RowIterator

Returns:

the current row which was just removed from collection.

getRangeIndexOf

public int getRangeIndexOf(Row row)

Returns the range index of a given row.

Specified by:

getRangeIndexOf in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

row - a row.

Returns:

the zero-based range index of the row, or -1 if the row is not within the range.

enumerateRowsInRange

public java.util.Enumeration enumerateRowsInRange()

Creates and returns an enumerator of the rows in the range.

Specified by:

enumerateRowsInRange in interface RowIterator

Returns:

an enumerator.

getAllRowsInRange

public Row[] getAllRowsInRange()

Returns an array of all rows in the iterator's range.

Specified by:

getAllRowsInRange in interface RowIterator

Returns:

an array of view rows.

getNextRangeSet

public Row[] getNextRangeSet()

Description copied from interface: RowSetIterator

Gets the next set of rows in the range. This method is good for processing rows in a range-ful fashion. Suppose the Row Set has 20 rows and the Iterator range size is 10. Suppose further that the Iterator is showing rows 0 through 9 (0-based indexing). Calling getNextRangeSet() will return rows 10 through 19.

If the next range set does not have enough rows to fill up the range, getNextRangeSet() returns a partially filled range. That is, this method operates as if the iteration mode is RowIterator.ITER_MODE_LAST_PAGE_PARTIAL.

If there is no more rows, this method returns an empty array (an array of length 0).

While obtaining the next range set, the range will be scrolled. This causes a ScrollEvent to be sent to RowSetListener.rangeScrolled(oracle.jbo.ScrollEvent). To pick up such an event, the listener object must implement the RowSetListener interface. Further, this listener must be registered through a call to NavigatableRowIterator.addListener(Object) (the listener object passed in as the parameter to addListener).

After the next range set is obtained, the method sets the first Row of the range as the current row. This may fire a NavigationEvent and sends it to RowSetListener.navigated(oracle.jbo.NavigationEvent).

Specified by:

getNextRangeSet in interface RowSetIterator

Returns:

an array of Rows in the next range set. An array of length 0 if there are no more rows.

getPreviousRangeSet

public Row[] getPreviousRangeSet()

Description copied from interface: RowSetIterator

Gets the previous set of rows in the range. This method is good for processing rows in a range-ful fashion. Suppose the Row Set has 20 rows and the Iterator range size is 10. Suppose further that the Iterator is showing rows 10 through 19 (0-based indexing). Calling getPreviousRangeSet() will return rows 0 through 9.

If there is no more rows, this method returns an empty array (an array of length 0).

While obtaining the previous range set, the range will be scrolled. This causes a ScrollEvent to be sent to RowSetListener.rangeScrolled(oracle.jbo.ScrollEvent). To pick up such an event, the listener object must implement the RowSetListener interface. Further, this listener must be registered through a call to NavigatableRowIterator.addListener(Object) (the listener object passed in as the parameter to addListener).

After the previous range set is obtained, the method sets the first Row of the range as the current row. This may fire a NavigationEvent and sends it to RowSetListener.navigated(oracle.jbo.NavigationEvent).

Specified by:

getPreviousRangeSet in interface RowSetIterator

Returns:

an array of Rows in the previous range set. An array of length 0 if there are no more rows.

getViewObject

public ViewObject getViewObject()

Description copied from interface: RowSet

Gets the view object that owns this row set.

If this row set is the result of calling a view link accessor, the returned view object is an internal view object. ViewObject.isInternal() indicates whether the view object is internal or not. Even if a view link is defined between the master and detail view object, and even if an instance of them are included in the application module's data model, calling the view link by default uses a separate view object instance from the one in the AM's data model. To access the view link accessor's ViewObject, use the following code snippet (assuming that the detail side is called "MyDetail"):

    RowSet detailRS = (RowSet) masterViewRow.getMyDetail();
    ViewObject detailVO = detailRS.getViewObject();
 

Specified by:

getViewObject in interface RowSet

Returns:

the parent view object.

Parameters:

masterRSI - a master row set iterator.

Returns:

true if successful.

removeMasterRowSetIterator

                                boolean skipWhere)

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Same as RowIterator.findByKey(Key, int) with a few extra functionalities. The key is for an alternate key. You can specifcy the alternate key name through the keyName parameter.

A skipWhere parameter controls whether or notthe current view object's where-clause is included in the db query if a db query is issued to get the row(s).

It returns a RowIterator and not a row array. You can enumerate through rows of this row iterator.

Specified by:

Parameters:

keyName - the name of the alternate key. If null the primary key is specified, i.e., this function call becomes equivalent to findByKey with skipWhere = false.

key - the alternate key to match.

maxNumOfRows - the maximum size of the array to return, or -1 to return all rows.

skipWhere - A flag that controls whether, when a db query is issued to get the matching row(s), the view object's current where-clause is to be included in the query or not.

Returns:

an array of rows matching the alternate key.

Description copied from interface: RowIterator

Finds and returns View rows that match the specified View Criteria. See ViewCriteria for details on how to build and use a View Criteria.

The queryMode parameter controls the manner in which the qualifying View rows are searched. See the QUERY_MODE_... constants in ViewObject for different contants that can be specified (they can be OR'ed together).

If QUERY_MODE_SCAN_VIEW_ROWS is specified, the existing View rows in the current Row Set are scanned for matching rows.

If QUERY_MODE_SCAN_ENTITY_ROWS is specified, the Entity cache is searched for qualifying rows. If qualifying rows are found, they are added to the current Row Set. I.e., they become part of the current row collection. Internally, a finder View Object is created to search the Entity cache and to produce View rows from the Entity cache.

If QUERY_MODE_SCAN_DATABASE_TABLES is specified, a database query is issued to find matching rows. The View Criteria is converted into a where-clause. ViewObject.applyViewCriteria(ViewCriteria) on the finder View Object is invoked and the query executed.

Upon completion of this operation, the finder View Object is closed and removed.

Specified by:

findByViewCriteria in interface RowIterator

Parameters:

criteria - the View Criteria to be used to qualify View rows.

maxNumOfRows - the maximum size of the array to return, or -1 to return all rows. If a value other than -1 is specified and if the specified number of rows is reached, the method returns without performing any further operation.

queryMode - the mode in which qualify View rows are scanned. See above for further info.

Returns:

a RowSet (parented by the same View Object as this RowIterator) that contains qualifying rows. For convenience, this RowSet's range size is initialized to -1 (all rows).

setForwardOnly

public void setForwardOnly(boolean isForwardOnly)

Sets whether this row set will be forward-only or not.

Forward-only row sets manage only one row, and constrain users to working only with the current row. Data-update operations are not allowed.

Forward-only row sets are useful for batch operations which proceed linearly. The only allowed navigation operation is next(). A foward-only row set is faster and consumes fewer resources than a normal row set.

Specified by:

setForwardOnly in interface RowSet

Parameters:

isForwardOnly - true if the row set should be forward-only.

isForwardOnly

public boolean isForwardOnly()

Indicates whether this row set is forward-only.

Forward-only row sets manage only one row, and constrain users to working only with the current row. Data-update operations are not allowed.

Forward-only row sets are useful for batch operations which proceed linearly. The only allowed navigation operation is next(). A foward-only row set is faster and consumes fewer resources than a normal row set.

Specified by:

isForwardOnly in interface RowSet

Returns:

true if the row set is forward-only.

See Also:

RowSet.setForwardOnly(boolean)

setAssociationConsistent

public void setAssociationConsistent(boolean isConsistent)

Sets the association-consistent flag for this row set.

When association-consistency is disabled (the default), changes made in one View Object may not be visible in other View Objects until posted to the database.

When association-consistency is enabled, modified data will be fetched from the cache, rather than from the database, so changes will be visible before they are posted. Rows with modified foreign keys, newly created rows, deletions will be consistently shown. However, performace will be degraded. If association-consistency is on, the row set will reflect rows with modified foreign keys, newly created rows, and removed (deleted) rows.

If association-consistency is off, the user can post the pending changes to database. This way all subsequent queries into the database will include the data changes.

This method is relevant only if this row set was returned by a call to an entity association accessor. This methodl's default value is true for Entity Associations View Objects and false for View Link View Objects.

Specified by:

setAssociationConsistent in interface RowSet

Parameters:

isConsistent - true if association-consistency is to be enabled.

writeXML

public Node writeXML(long options,
                     java.util.HashMap voAttrRules)

Description copied from interface: XMLInterface

Renders data in a canonical XML-format. The classes ViewObjectImpl and ViewRowImpl implement this method to render data in XML.

Use this method whenever data is required in XML format, either to present a UI (after converting XML data into some HTTP format using a stylesheet) or to pass the data as payload for messages via JMS.

The options parameter represents a set of bit flags that will control the writeXML behavior. The following bit flags have been defined:

• public static long XML_OPT_LIMIT_RANGE = 0x00000001 - Controls whether writeXML will only write rows in the range. If this flag is off, all rows in the row set will be written. If this flag is on, only rows in the current range will be written.
• public static long XML_OPT_CHANGES_ONLY = 0x00000002 - Controls whether only changed attribute values of an entity row is written. If this is on, only the attributes whose value has been marked as "changed" will be written. If this is off, all attributes (regardless of whether the attribute value has been changed or not) will be written. This flag is relevant only when writing EntityImpl.

The voAttrMap parameter represents in a hashmap, the mapping between a given ViewObject's definition type and the corresponding Attributes/accessors to render. A null entry in the hashmap means, render all attributes and accessors of that viewobject type.

Specified by:

writeXML in interface XMLInterface

Parameters:

options - a set of bit flags that will control the writeXML

voAttrRules - HashMap containing Definition names of ViewObjects and an array of AttributeDef to render for a ViewObject of that definition type.

writeXML

public Node writeXML(int depthCount,
                     long options,

public Node writeXML(long options,
                     java.util.HashMap voAttrMap,
                     XSLStylesheet xslt)

Specified by:

writeXML

public final Node writeXML(int depthCount,
                           long options)

Renders data in a canonical XML-format. The classes ViewObjectImpl and ViewRowImpl implement this method to render data in XML.

Use this method whenever data is required in XML format, either to present a UI (after converting XML data into some HTTP format using a stylesheet) or to pass the data as payload for messages via JMS.

The writeXML method on ViewObjectImpl traverses the ViewLink accessor for every row in the ViewObject to render detail rows and performs this recursively at each level of the master-detail relationships. This allows writeXML to render rows without disturbing the ViewObject, but also means that new rows in detail rowsets will not be automatically included in the output of writeXML unless the XML_OPT_ASSOC_CONSISTENT option is selected (see below). If readXML is used to load the rendered writeXML output, all ViewObjects which wish to see those new detail rows should themselves be set to viewlink consistent. See readXML for more details.

The depthcount parameter represents to what level the rendering should recurse. A depthcount of zero (0) means do not traverse any View Links while rendering, a depthcount of one (1) means traverse the ViewLinks on this object but no ViewLinks thereafter, and so on.

The writeXML method creates default node labels during ViewObjectImpl and ViewRowImpl rendering. The custom properties XML_ELEMENT and XML_ROW_ELEMENT may be used to customize the default element names for ViewObjectImpl and ViewRowImpl respectively. Note that the XML_ELEMENT property must be set on the ViewLink in order to affect the labels of ViewObjectImpl nodes which are generated via View Link traversal. Since this is not currently possible at design time, a runtime workaround is as follows:

• 1. Get the XML_ELEMENT_NAME property which was set on the ViewObject definition at design time
• 2. Figure out the accessor name. If your master VO row has a method like get<DetailVO>, then the accessorName = <DetailVO>. You'd have to do this for the VO1 and all its child VOs, if the child VO has a grandchild.
• 3. Apply the XML_ELEMENT_NAME property to the accessor definition

String propVal = (String)VO1.getProperty(XML_ELEMENT_NAME); VO1.findAttributeDef(<accessorName>).setProperty(XML_ELEMENT_NAME, propVal); VO1.writeXML(...);

The options parameter represents a set of bit flags that will control the writeXML behavior. The following bit flags have been defined:

• XML_OPT_LIMIT_RANGE - Controls whether writeXML will only write rows in the range. If this flag is off, all rows in the row set will be written. If this flag is on, only rows in the current range will be written.
• XML_OPT_CHANGES_ONLY - Controls whether only changed attribute values of an entity row is written. If this is on, only the attributes whose value has been marked as "changed" will be written. If this is off, all attributes (regardless of whether the attribute value has been changed or not) will be written. This flag is relevant only when writing EntityImpl.
• XML_OPT_ASSOC_CONSISTENT - Controls whether attribute accessors that return a RowSet should set the AssociationConsistent flag on, so that new (unposted) rows for the RowSet are also included in the output. When this flag is set, the RowSet used for rendering XML is not set to forward only mode.

Specified by:

writeXML in interface XMLInterface

Parameters:

depthCount - represents to what level data writing should recurse.

options - a set of bit flags that will control the writeXML behavior.

                          XSLStylesheet xslt)

Given the document interface, finds the rowset Element and invokes JboXMLUtil.processAndReadXML(XMLInterface, org.w3c.dom.Element, int, oracle.xml.parser.v2.XSLStylesheet) to read in the data from the XML.

Note that if the XML contains modifications to row-keys, other RowSets for this object may not pick those changes up unless the rows are posted to the database. Call Transaction.postChanges() to sync up all RowSets for this View Object.

Specified by:

readXML in interface XMLInterface

Parameters:

                          int depthCount)

Given the document interface, finds the rowset Element and invokes readFromXMLElementNode() to read in the data from the XML.

Note that if the XML contains modifications to row-keys, other RowSets for this object may not pick those changes up unless the rows are posted to the database. Call Transaction.postChanges() to sync up all RowSets for this View Object.

When using readXML in a passivation-enabled environment prior to release 9.0.5, it is recommended to enable viewlink consistency. This may be done at the VM level using -Djbo.viewlink.consistent=true, or at the ViewObjectImpl class level (applying to all instances and both external and internal row sets) by overriding addRowSet() as follows:

protected void addRowSet(ViewRowSetImpl rs) { super.addRowSet(rs); rs.setAssociationConsistent(true); }

For targeted overrides, it's also possible to control viewlink consistency at the ViewObjectImpl instance level by invoking setAssociationConsistent(true).

Specified by:

readXML in interface XMLInterface

Parameters:

elem - the element from which data should be read.

depthCount - represents to what level the reading should recurse.

Creates a key from the given element's sub-elements to find an existing row. If the row is found, it is updated with other attribute values. If the row is not found, it creates a new row, sets the attribute values and inserts the row in the rowset.

Parameters:

node - the node that corresponds to the row which is sought.

depthCount - represents to what level the updating should recurse.

rs - the rowSet in which the row should be found.

Throws:

ReadXMLException - when the read operation fails while reading the rows for this rowset. This exception may contain one exception per Row in this rowset.

checkPassivateViewAttributes

protected boolean checkPassivateViewAttributes()

Applications should override this method to indicate if all View Attribute (Transient, SQLDerived or Dynamic) needs to be passivated when this ViewObject is passivated. If true is returned, then this overrides the ViewAttribute property settings for XML passivation. By default, the framework returns false from this method so that only those View attributes which have custom property setting for PASSIVATE_TRANSIENT_VALUE are passivated.

isPassivatableTransientAttribute

protected final boolean isPassivatableTransientAttribute(ViewAttributeDefImpl voAttr)

Returns true if this Transient attribute should be passivated when the ViewObject data is being passivated. This method calls ViewObject.checkPassivateViewAttributes() to verify if VO is marked to passivate all transient attribute passivation. If so, this method returns true. This method returns true if Passivate flag is turned on in the metadata for this attribute. For backward compatibility if passivate flag is not set, but PASSIVATE_TRANSIENT_VALUE element is defined as a custom property with a value not equal to 'false' and XML_ELEMENT_NAME property is not '#hide', then this method returns true.

setPassivatableTransientAttribute

protected final void setPassivatableTransientAttribute(ViewAttributeDefImpl voAttr,
                                                       boolean flag)

Marks the given attribute def for this VO as passivatable. If the attribute definition does not belong to this ViewObject, then this method is a no-op.

passivateDynamicAttributeDef

protected void passivateDynamicAttributeDef(java.util.ArrayList dal,
                                            Document doc,
                                            Element parent)

Parameters:

dal - A list of dynamic attribute definitions to passivate

doc - XMLDocument to passivate data in.

parent - Element inside the document to passivate dynamic attributes in.

For internal use only. Application developers should not use this

This method saves out required dynamic attribute definition parameters to recreate them on activation. What is saved is name, type and expression.

passivateState

protected void passivateState(Document doc,
                              Element parent)

Allows subclasses to store custom data as XML-nodes under the given parent element, in the given document. The difference between this method and passivateState(ViewRowImpl, Document, Element) is that this method may be used to store custom data that does not depend upon the VO Iterator or RowSet state which may include:

• the current row
• all fetched rows
• a subset of rows

By default the ViewObject does not store anything in this method. On activation, the ViewObject calls activateState(Element) with the parent element for the reverse operation.

Parameters:

doc - the XML document where the custom data will be stored.

parent - the parent element under which the custom data will be stored.

passivateState

protected void passivateState(ViewRowImpl currentRow,
                              Document doc,
                              Element parent)

Allows subclasses to store custom data as XML-nodes under the given parent element, in the given document. Specifies the current row for which the key has been passivated.

This method lets customized View Objects determine how they want to store private data for:

• the current row
• all fetched rows
• a subset of rows

The only requirement is that this data should be stored under a child node under the parent element. Note that the data cannot be stored under the first child, because that is where default passivation routines always store the key.

The default implementation of this method stores transient row data and new row tracker data in the parent element. The default implementation should not be overriden.

On activation, the View Object calls activateState(Element) to notify the activation of ViewObject instance state and activateState(ViewRowImpl, Element) with the currentRow, and parent element to notify the activation of iterator state.

Parameters:

currentRow - the View Row for which the key has been passivated.

doc - the name of the XML document where the custom data will be stored.

parent - the name of the parent element under which the custom data will be stored.

passivateState

protected void passivateState(ViewRowSetImpl vrs,
                              ViewRowImpl currentRow,
                              Document doc,
                              Element parent)

Override this to store custom data as XML-nodes for the given ViewRowSetImpl.

Advanced Internal method only. ReStores the newRowTracker array

handleActivatedRowNotFound

protected ViewRowImpl handleActivatedRowNotFound(Key k)

Applications should override this method and create a new row if they want to "own" management of a row that was not found during this VOs activation. This could occur when an updated row (transient values only) was removed from the database and the VO is being activated after that occurence.

Typically Applications will throw a RowNotFoundException for these cases based on their locking modes. By default this method simply prints a diagnostic warning.

Parameters:

k - Key object for the row that was not found during activation.

Returns:

a Row if the application determines this row needs to be maintained in this ViewObject's collection.

activateTransientAttribute

protected void activateTransientAttribute(ViewRowImpl row,
                                          Node transRow,
                                          AttributeDefImpl ad)

This method should be invoked from passivateState with a list of attributedefs as per the VO requirement. This method stores the rowkey, and the given set of attributes.

activateState

protected void activateState(Element parent)

Allows subclasses to retrieve custom data from an XML-node under the given parent element. This method differs from activateState(ViewRowImpl, Element) in that the ViewObject RowSet and Iterator state are not restored when this method is invoked. Applications that define persistent, custom data which is dependent upon RowSet and/or Iterator state should extend passivateState(ViewRowImpl, Document, Element) and activateState(ViewRowImpl, Element) instead.

Parameters:

parent - element which could be null if nothing was passivated in it in passivateState

Description copied from interface: ViewObject

Reads the data in XML form (in the format as generated by writeXML()) by finding a row that matches the key in the given XML and then reading in that row. If the row is not found, it tries to insert that row into this ViewObject with the attribute values from XML.

The depthcount parameter represents to what level the rendering should recurse. A depthcount of zero (0) means do not traverse any view links while rendering. One (1) means traverse the view links on this object but no view links thereafter, and so on.

Specified by:

readRowXML in interface ViewObject

readRowXML

public void readRowXML(Element elem,
                       int depthCount,

Specified by:

readRowXML in interface ViewObject

setQueryOptimizerHint

public void setQueryOptimizerHint(java.lang.String hintText)

If this ViewObject does not have an expert mode query, then this hint is added to the select clause of the SQL for this ViewObject before the columns are listed e.g., SELECT \/*+ *\/ columns... For expert mode queries, this hint is appended in the outer Select like: SELECT \/*+ *\/ * FROM ()

Specified by:

                                         Key key)

Override this to provide custom current row lookup. Apps may need to implement this method in cases where expert mode query or full-query is used for a VO and the query has where-clause with bindparameters built into it and this VO is not executed but has inserted rows. In this case, since the VO is not passivated, there are no bind params passivated and on activation findByKey will fail to find the current row as the VO does not have bind parameters.

Override this method and use another VO to fetch an equivalent row and add it to the given ViewRowSet. The caller activation routine will set the row as current.

prepareForActivation

protected void prepareForActivation(Element amNode)

Override this method to activate custom data in the ViewObject from this VO's xml node. This data would most likely be passivated in the overridden prepareForPassivation(). This method is called before any VO settings are activated.

Parameters:

amNode - Element node under which this VO's data is being passivated.

prepareForPassivation

protected void prepareForPassivation(Document out,
                                     Element parent)

Parameters:

out - Document in which to create xml nodes.

parent - Element node under which this VO's data is being passivated.

resetSession

protected void resetSession()

BC4J invokes this method when a ViewObject is being reset for potential reuse by another client session. Custom applications may extend this method to clean up custom ViewObject state that was specific to the last session to use this ViewObject.
