public class OdiInterface

extends oracle.odi.domain.support.AbstractOdiEntity

implements IOdiShortcutable<OdiInterface>, IOdiScenarioSource, oracle.odi.domain.procusage.IProcedureUser, IWorkDevelopmentOdiEntity, IExportable, IInterfaceSubComponent, IFlexFieldUser, ISmartExportable, oracle.odi.core.audit.support.IAuditableFirstClassObject

An OdiInterface is the main class that implement target datastore feeding, suppling data from several source datastores.

If an interface is constructed with a reference object, the interface will represented a shortcut to the reference object. When an interface is used as a shortcut, most properties are accessed through the base object. The IOdiShortcutable interface implemented by OdiInterface provides access and control over the shortcut aspects of this object.

This class is not intended to be used directly to create a consistent OdiInterface instance. A consistent OdiInterface is an OdiInterface instance that would be executed as is without any consistency issues regarding mappings, execution locations, etc. Creating a consistent OdiInterface has to be done using 3d party tools or classes that extend IInteractiveInterfaceHelper such as InteractiveInterfaceHelperWithActions.

This class is provided for internal use only, or for ODI consumers that want to read an existing OdiInterface instance. Any direct changes to that class or any of its enclosing members from package oracle.odi.domain.project.interfaces are strongly discouraged and without any guarantee. This may lead into unpredictable consistency issues.

StagingArea and TargetDataStore are non-nullable instances.

11.1.1.3.0

Method Detail

getInternalId

public java.io.Serializable getInternalId()

Description copied from interface: IRepositoryEntity

Provides a common getter for the persistence layer to obtain an identity, irrespective of the actual type of identity used.

Typically a subclass will delegate to a public SomePrimitiveWrapper getId() method. The necessity for the getInternalId() abstract method is solely because the persistence layer needs a way of obtaining the identity irrespective of the actual identity implementation choice.

Returning null from this method will indicate the object has never been saved. This will likely be relied on by some DAO implementations.
