public class Cortex
extends Query

A Cortex is a subclass of Query in which some properties have been marked as "keys". These keys allow a bean to uniquely identify a set of rows in a set of tables. This allows functions such as inserting, deleting, updating, and selecting to be performed on an object-by-object basis.

Note that this implementation assumes that the columns are confined to a single table, that each property maps to at most one column, and each column maps to at most one property.

         java.sql.Connection pConnection)
           throws java.sql.SQLException

Updates all rows from the class' tables whose values match the specified selector. The selector is a Dictionary mapping property names to the values to be selected on those properties. Only those properties listed in the Dictionary will be considered as part of the query. A flag indicates if a selected row must match all entries in the selector, or any entry in the selector.

Parameters:

pSelector - the Dictionary mapping property name to the value to be matched for that property. Primitive values, such as "int", should be specified in object form - i.e., "Integer".

pIsAnd - flag indicating whether the entries of the selector will be placed in an AND clause or OR clause. If true, then only those rows that match all of the selector criteria will be returned. Otherwise, rows that match any of the selector criteria will be returned.

Selects all rows from this Cortex's table. The rows are converted to objects and returned in an array.

Parameters:

pConnection - the JDBC connection to use to perform the operation

Returns:

the table's rows converted to objects

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs

select

public java.lang.Object select(java.lang.Object pObject,
                      java.sql.Connection pConnection)
                        throws java.sql.SQLException

Searches for the specified row in the database. The entry in the database to be retrieved is identified solely by the object's primary key, which must be set. If the row is found in the database, then a version of the object with all of the properties filled in from the database is returned. In many implementations, the argument passed to the function will be modified in place and returned. If multiple rows are found, then it is not specified which row will be returned.

Parameters:

pObject - the object specifying the primary key value of the object to be found.

pConnection - the JDBC connection to use to perform the operation

Returns:

the found object with properties filled in from the row, or null if not found.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs

select

public java.lang.Object[] select(java.lang.Object[] pObjects,
                        java.sql.Connection pConnection)
                          throws java.sql.SQLException

Searches for the specified rows in the database, where each row is selected by the corresponding object in the specified array. The entry in the database to be retrieved is identified solely by the object's primary key, which must be set. If the row is found in the database, then a version of the object with all of the properties filled in from the database is put into the return array. The objects passed to the function will be modified in place and returned. If multiple rows are found for a particular object, then only one row is placed in the array (it is not specified which one).

Parameters:

pObjects - the objects specifying the primary key value of the objects to be found. Each object in the array is used to select one row from the database, which is returned as a single object in the return value.

pConnection - the JDBC connection to use to perform the operation

Returns:

the list of found objects with properties filled in from the rows. Each element of the return value is selected from the corresponding element in the object array parameter. If no row was found for one of the objects, then that element is set to null. The return value type is Object[], and should not be expected to be castable to the type of object represented by this Cortex. For example, if this Cortex represents a "Person" class, the return value is not necessarily of type Person[].

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs

select

public java.lang.Object[] select(java.util.Dictionary pSelector,
                        boolean pIsAnd,
                        java.sql.Connection pConnection)
                          throws java.sql.SQLException

Searches for the rows in the database that match the specified selector. The selector is a Dictionary mapping property names to the values to be selected on those properties. Only those properties listed in the Dictionary will be considered as part of the query. A flag indicates if a selected row must match all entries in the selector, or any entry in the selector.

Parameters:

pSelector - the Dictionary mapping property name to the value to be matched for that property. Primitive values, such as "int", should be specified in object form - i.e., "Integer".

pIsAnd - flag indicating whether the entries of the selector will be placed in an AND clause or OR clause. If true, then only those rows that match all of the selector criteria will be returned. Otherwise, rows that match any of the selector criteria will be returned.

pConnection - the JDBC connection to use to perform the operation

Returns:

an array of the selected rows, converted to objects. The return value type is Object[], and should not be expected to be castable to the type of object represented by this Cortex. For example, if this Cortex represents a "Person" class, the return value is not necessarily of type Person[].

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs
