```
public void setCascadeInsert(boolean pInsert)

    Description copied from class: RepositoryPropertyDescriptor
    
    Sets the property CascadeInsert. If this is true on a property that refers to another item, the create operation will automatically create a new item in the referenced repository and set the value of this property to it. Typically this should be used in conjunction with CascadeUpdate so that this value gets added and updated at the same time as well. The default is false. You cannot set this to true for properties which do not refer to other items.
    
    Overrides:
    
    setCascadeInsert in class RepositoryPropertyDescriptor
    
    Parameters:
    
    pInsert - new value to set
  - setCascadeUpdate
```
public void setCascadeUpdate(boolean pUpdate)
```
    Description copied from class: RepositoryPropertyDescriptor
    Sets the property CascadeUpdate. If this is true on a property that refers to another item (or items), the add and update operations apply recursively to the referenced item (or items). More specifically, setting this property to true on a property descriptor changes the behavior of the system in the following ways:
    - when you have a mutable version of the item, any referenced items are returned as mutable when you call getPropertyValue.
    - when you add the item, any referenced items that are transient are automatically added
    - when you update the item, any referenced items that have been modified are automatically updated.
    The default is false. You cannot set this to true for properties which do not refer to other items.
    Overrides:
    
    setCascadeUpdate in class RepositoryPropertyDescriptor
    
    Parameters:
    
    pUpdate - new value to set
  - setCascadeDelete
```
public void setCascadeDelete(boolean pDelete)
```
    Description copied from class: RepositoryPropertyDescriptor
    Sets the property CascadeDelete. If this is true on a property that refers to another item (or items), the remove operation applies recursively to the referenced item (or items). More specifically, setting this property to true on a property descriptor changes the behavior of the system in the following ways:
    - when an item is removed, any items referenced by a cascade delete=true property are also removed.
    The default is false. You cannot set this to true for properties which do not refer to other items.
    Overrides:
    
    setCascadeDelete in class RepositoryPropertyDescriptor

    Parameters:
    
    attributeName - The locale-independent name of the attribute
    
    Returns:
    
    The value of the attribute. May be null if the attribute is unknown.
  - updatePropertyDescriptor
```
public void updatePropertyDescriptor()
```
    This method gets called when all of the property descriptor's properties have been set. It does computation of some precomputed values
  - getLocalizedResourceBundle
```
public java.util.ResourceBundle getLocalizedResourceBundle(java.util.Locale pLocale)
```
    Override the getResourceBundle method which is used to localize values for this property descriptor to the user's locale. First check for a bundle on the property, then the table, then the item-descriptor.
    
    Overrides:
    
    getLocalizedResourceBundle in class RepositoryPropertyDescriptor
    
    Parameters:
    
    pLocale - The locale to review the resource bundle for.
    
    Returns:
    
    The localized resource bundle. If null is passed in the locale is the server.
  - getResourceBundle
```
public java.util.ResourceBundle getResourceBundle()
```
    Override the getResourceBundle method which is used to localize values for this property descriptor to the server locale. First check for a bundle on the property, then the table, then the item-descriptor.
    
    Overrides:
    
    getResourceBundle in class RepositoryPropertyDescriptor
  - getReverseReferenceProperties
```
public GSAPropertyDescriptor[] getReverseReferenceProperties()
```
    Returns the property or properties that reverse this reference. Returns null if this is a non-RepositoryItem reference or there is no reversing property, or if this property references a non-GSA repository.
  - setManyToOneIdProperty
```
public void setManyToOneIdProperty(GSAPropertyDescriptor pManyToOneIdProperty)
```
    Sets the property ManyToOneIdProperty. If this property is the src of a many to one relationship, we need to treat this property specially. This property contains the property descriptor of the destination id property for the relationship. When this property gets modified (i.e. an item gets added or removed from it), we need to do some special things:
    - We skip the actual insert, update or delete from the table for this item since that will happen automatically when we process the referenced item. This happens because we force cascadeUpdate on this property so by simply adding or removing a reference to the underlying item, we'll add or remove the item itself.
    - When an item is added to this property, we need to update the property of the item whose value corresponds to the id of this property's item. This ensures that when the refernced item is added that it has the proper value this relationship requires to do this direction.
    - When an item which contains one of these properties is removed, we need to go to the manyToOneProperty and clear its reference to this item to avoid referential integrity constraints.
    Parameters:
    
    pManyToOneIdProperty - new value to set
  - getManyToOneIdProperty
```
public GSAPropertyDescriptor getManyToOneIdProperty()
```
    Returns:
    
    The value of the property ManyToOneIdProperty.
  - setManyToOneMultiProperty
```
public void setManyToOneMultiProperty(GSAPropertyDescriptor pManyToOneMultiProperty)
```
    Sets the property ManyToOneMultiProperty.
    
    Parameters:
    
    pManyToOneMultiProperty - new value to set
  - getManyToOneMultiProperty
```
public GSAPropertyDescriptor getManyToOneMultiProperty()
```
    Returns:
    
    The value of the property ManyToOneMultiProperty.
  - setRemoveNullValues
```
public void setRemoveNullValues(boolean pRemoveNullValues)
```
    Sets the property RemoveNullValues. This gets set via the feature descriptor attribute of the same name. When it is true on a multi-valued property, any null values in that property are automatically removed from the bean representation (and when the property is modified, the updated table also has these values removed).
    
    Parameters:
    
    pRemoveNullValues - new value to set
  - getRemoveNullValues
```
public boolean getRemoveNullValues()
```
    Returns:
    
    The value of the property RemoveNullValues.
  - setAllowNullValues
```
public void setAllowNullValues(boolean pAllowNullValues)
```
    Sets the property allowNullValues. This gets set via the feature descriptor attribute of the same name. When it is false on a multi-valued property, null values are silently stripped, and saving a null value will result in an error.
    
    Parameters:
    
    pAllowNullValues - new value to set
  - getAllowNullValues
```
public boolean getAllowNullValues()
```
    When it allowNullValues is false on a multi-valued property, null values are silently stripped, and saving a null value will result in an error.
    
    Returns:
    
    The value of the property allowNullValues.
  - isBackingMapProperty
```
public boolean isBackingMapProperty()
```
    Gets the value of the property backingMapProperty.
  - setCacheReferencesById
```
public void setCacheReferencesById(boolean pCacheReferencesById)
```
    Sets the property CacheReferencesById. If this is a set on an item descriptor, we cache item ids not items directly. This can be used to reduce the number of items cached (i.e. a referencing item will not implicitly hold onto all referenced items). It also is used by the version repository to ensure that references are always returned pointing to the correct item (in case a new item is added to a workspace when we are caching the version of the item on the branch for example).
    
    Parameters:
    
    pCacheReferencesById - new value to set
  - getCacheReferencesById
```
public boolean getCacheReferencesById()
```
    Returns:
    
    The value of the property CacheReferencesById.
  - setLoadingStrategy
```
public void setLoadingStrategy(java.lang.String pLoadingStrategy)
```
    Set property loadingStrategy
    
    Parameters:
    
    pLoadingStrategy - new value to set
  - getLoadingStrategy
```
public java.lang.String getLoadingStrategy()
```
    Get property loadingStrategy
    
    Returns:
    
    loadingStrategy
  - logDebug
```
public void logDebug(java.lang.String pMsg)
```
    Log a debug message
  - logDebug
```
public void logDebug(java.lang.String pMsg,
                     int pLevel)
```
    Log a debug message
  - logWarning
```
public void logWarning(java.lang.String pMsg)
```
    Log a warning message
  - logError
```
public void logError(java.lang.String pMsg)
```
    Log a error message
  - logError
```
public void logError(java.lang.Throwable pThrowable)
```
    Log a error message
  - isLoggingDebug
```
public boolean isLoggingDebug()
```
    Check logging debug status
    
    Overrides:
    
    isLoggingDebug in class RepositoryPropertyDescriptor
    
    Returns:
    
    The value of the property LoggingDebug.
  - isLoggingWarning
```
public boolean isLoggingWarning()
```
    Check logging warning status
  - isLoggingError
```
public boolean isLoggingError()
```
    Check logging error status
