All Implemented Interfaces:

Deprecated.
this class/method belongs to 11g SDK and is deprecated in 12c release. A target column is a column of a OdiInterface.TargetDataStore in an OdiInterface.
It contains information about how the column is mapped (indicators, potentially a target SQL mapping text).
When the target datastore has an underlying OdiDataStore, each TargetMapping points to one OdiColumn of this OdiDataStore.
In this case, TargetColumns are persisted according to an IMappingPersistencePolicy for obvious performance reasons (on a target datastore with 500 columns on which only 10 columns are mapped, this can make a difference).
On temporary target datastores, target columns do not reflect an OdiColumn and are systematically persisted.
Note that all setters in this class should not be used directly. To create, modify or delete a target column of an OdiInterface, use IInterfaceActions on an IInteractiveInterfaceHelperWithActions.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods Deprecated Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`void`	`addTargetMapping(TargetMapping pTargetMapping)` Deprecated. Internal use only Adds a target mapping to this target column.
`void`	`changeToTemporaryColumn()` Deprecated. Internal use only Modifies an existing target column for use when the target datastore is changed to temporary.
`java.lang.String`	`getBusinessRule()` Deprecated. Returns the business rule of this target column. The business rule is a custom functional description of what this column represents.
`OdiDataType`	`getDataType()` Deprecated. Returns the datatype of this target column.
`OdiInterface.ExecutionLocation`	`getExecutionLocation()` Deprecated. Returns the location of the execution of the mapping, if any. If no mapping is set for this target column, `null` is returned. If this column is mapped on the target then `OdiInterface.ExecutionLocation.TARGET` is returned. If this column is mapped on the Staging Area or on Source, then `null` is returned, you will need to fetch the execution location for each `DataSet` on the corresponding `TargetMapping`s, either by fetching them from `getTargetMappings()` either from `DataSet.getMapping(String)`.
`java.lang.String`	`getGlobalId()` Deprecated. Global ID is unique cross repositories.
`java.io.Serializable`	`getInternalId()` Deprecated. The internal ID of this sub component. Returning `null` from this method will indicate the object has never been persisted in the repository.
`java.lang.Integer`	`getInternalLength()` Deprecated. Returns the length of the column. Unlike `getLength()`, this method will return `null` rather than throwing an exception if the length is not allowed.
`java.lang.Integer`	`getInternalScale()` Deprecated. Returns the scale of the column. Unlike `getScale()`, this method will return `null` rather than throwing an exception if the scale is not allowed.
`java.lang.Integer`	`getLength()` Deprecated. Returns the length of the column. If the datatype is not set or doesn't allow length, a call to this method will cause an `IllegalStateException`.
`java.lang.String`	`getName()` Deprecated. Returns the name of the target column.
`Expression`	`getNonPersistedSql()` Deprecated. Returns the non persisted expression on this target column. The difference between the persisted and non persisted versions lie in the cross-references, as some cross-references are not persisted in the repository.
`OdiInterface`	`getParentInterface()` Deprecated. Returns the parent interface of this target column.
`java.lang.Integer`	`getPosition()` Deprecated. Getter for the column's position.
`java.lang.Integer`	`getScale()` Deprecated. Returns the scale of the column. If the datatype is not set or doesn't allow scale, a call to this method will cause an `IllegalStateException`.

`boolean`	`internalPersistenceEquals(TargetColumn t2)` Deprecated. Returns `true` if this instance is equal to i2 in terms of persisted fields only
`boolean`	`isCheckNotNullIndicator()` Deprecated. If `true` then the column will be checked for not null during the loading of the data in the target datastore. For this to happen, you need to have a CKM defined on the interface and to make sure that the IKM is enabled for flow control (please refer to the documentation of the IKM).

Note that mappings should comply with a few basic rules: - mappings executed on the SOURCE should not reference columns from different physical schemas, - mappings executed on the SOURCE should reference at least a source column, otherwise the target column should be manually assigned to a `SourceDataStore` using `InterfaceActionOnTargetMappingSetAttachedDataStore`, - mappings executed on the TARGET should not reference any source columns, since the source columns are not available on the target.
