public class OdiSubModel

extends AbstractOdiSubModel

A sub model is a group of functionally homogeneous datastores within a model.

A sub model may be contained by a OdiModel or another sub model. A sub model may also contain any number of other sub models.

The datastores of a model can be inserted directly by using AbstractOdiSubModel.addDataStore(OdiDataStore), or by automatic distribution. The base class AbstractOdiSubModel handles adding, removing datastores. This class handles the automatic distribution configuration for the datastores.

For automatic distribution, Use this class to define a distribution rule of the datastores in your sub models. Datastores, depending on the datastores distribution rule for each sub model, are compared to the automatic distribution mask. If they match this pattern, then they are moved into this sub model.

There are two methods to classify:

• (UI Only) By clicking Distribution the current rule is applied to the datastores.
• At the end of the reverse-engineering process, all rules are applied in the order specified in the Order of mask application after a Reverse field.

11.1.1.3.0

Constructor Detail

OdiSubModel

public OdiSubModel(OdiModel pParentModel,
                   java.lang.String pName,
                   java.lang.String pCode)

Creates a sub model with a parent model, a name and a code.

Parameters:

pParentModel - parent model

pName - sub model name

pCode - unique code for sub model

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if parent model is null ; if the name is null, empty or longer than NAME_MAX_LENGTH; if the code is null, empty, longer than CODE_MAX_LENGTH, or contains whitespaces or is not uppercase

OdiModel

OdiSubModel

public OdiSubModel(OdiSubModel pParentSubModel,
                   java.lang.String pName,
                   java.lang.String pCode)

Creates a sub model with a parent sub model, a name and a code.

Parameters:

pParentSubModel - parent sub model

pName - sub model name

pCode - unique sub model code

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the parent sub model is null ; if the name is null, empty or longer than NAME_MAX_LENGTH ; if the code is null, empty, longer than CODE_MAX_LENGTH, contains whitespaces or is not uppercase

Method Detail

getParentSubModel

public OdiSubModel getParentSubModel()

Returns the parent sub model of this OdiSubModel instance.

Returns:

an OdiSubModel object representing the parent sub model value

getSubModels

public java.util.Collection<OdiSubModel> getSubModels()

Obtains the unmodifiable collection of sub models of this OdiSubModel instance.

Use removeSubModel(OdiSubModel) and addSubModel(OdiSubModel) to respectively add and remove a sub model.

Returns:

the unmodifiable collection of sub models

See Also:

addSubModel(OdiSubModel), removeSubModel(OdiSubModel)

addSubModel

public void addSubModel(OdiSubModel pSubModel)

Add the given sub model to the collection of sub models of this OdiSubModel instance.

This will also set the ParentSubModel of the given sub model to this sub model. If the given sub model was already associated to an other sub model, it will be removed from the other sub model.

Parameters:

pSubModel - sub model to be added

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if pSubModel is null or if you try to move the pSubModel to an other OdiModel or if you try to create cycles in hierarchy

removeSubModel

public void removeSubModel(OdiSubModel pSubModel)

Remove the given sub model from the collection of sub models of this OdiSubModel instance.

This will also reset the OdiSubModel of the given sub model to null.

Note: IOdiEntityManager.remove(pSubModel) must also be called in order to remove the sub model from the repository

Parameters:

pSubModel - sub model to be removed

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if pSubModel is null or does not belong to this OdiSubModel

getDistributionMask

public java.lang.String getDistributionMask()

Get the distribution mask for this OdiSubModel instance.

The distribution mask determines the pattern to which the datastores names must adhere to be classified in this OdiSubModel instance.

Returns:

the mask for data stores distribution

See Also:

setDistributionMask(String)

setDistributionMask

public void setDistributionMask(java.lang.String pDistributionMask)

Set the distribution mask for this OdiSubModel instance.

The distribution mask determines the pattern to which the datastores names must adhere to be classified in this OdiSubModel instance.

Parameters:

pDistributionMask - the data stores distribution mask

See Also:

getDistributionMask()

getDistributionRule

public OdiSubModel.DistributionRule getDistributionRule()

Get the distribution rule for this OdiSubModel instance.

The distribution rule determines which datastores will be considered and compared to the automatic assignment mask.

Returns:

the distribution rule

See Also:

setDistributionRule(DistributionRule)

setDistributionRule

public void setDistributionRule(OdiSubModel.DistributionRule pDistributionRule)

Set the distribution rule for this OdiSubModel instance.

The distribution rule determines which datastores will be considered and compared to the automatic assignment mask.

By default distribution rule is set to OdiSubModel.DistributionRule.NO_DISTRIBUTION.

Parameters:

pDistributionRule - the distribution rule

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if given rule is null

See Also:

getDistributionRule()

getDistributionOrder

public java.lang.String getDistributionOrder()

Get the distribution order for this OdiSubModel instance.

The distribution order determines the order in which the mask is applied at the end of a reverse-engineering process. Consequently, a rule with a high priority order on all datastores will have precedence. A rule with a high order on non classified datastores will apply only on datastores ignored by the other rules' patterns. At the end of the reverse-engineering process, new datastores are considered as non classified. Those already classified as a sub model stay attached to their sub model.

Returns:

the distribution order of this OdiSubModel instance

See Also:

setDistributionOrder(String)

setDistributionOrder

public void setDistributionOrder(java.lang.String pDistributionOrder)

Defines the distribution order of this OdiSubModel instance.

The distribution order determines the order in which the mask is applied at the end of a reverse-engineering process. Consequently, a rule with a high priority order on all datastores will have precedence. A rule with a high order on non classified datastores will apply only on datastores ignored by the other rules' patterns. At the end of the reverse-engineering process, new datastores are considered as non classified. Those already classified as a sub model stay attached to their sub model.

By default distribution order is set to null.

Parameters:

pDistributionOrder - the distribution order

See Also:

getDistributionOrder()

setName

public void setName(java.lang.String pName)

Set the name of this OdiSubModel instance.

Parameters:

pName - sub model name

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the name is null, empty, contains whitespaces or is longer than NAME_MAX_LENGTH
