Class MapAttributeImpl<X,K,V>

java.lang.Object

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metamodel.AttributeImpl<X,C>

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metamodel.PluralAttributeImpl<X,java.util.Map<K,V>,V>

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metamodel.MapAttributeImpl<X,K,V>

Type Parameters:

X - The type the represented Map belongs to

K - The type of the key of the represented Map

V - The type of the value of the represented Map

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, javax.persistence.metamodel.Attribute<X,java.util.Map<K,V>>, javax.persistence.metamodel.Bindable<V>, javax.persistence.metamodel.MapAttribute<X,K,V>, javax.persistence.metamodel.PluralAttribute<X,java.util.Map<K,V>,V>

public class MapAttributeImpl<X,K,V>
extends PluralAttributeImpl<X,java.util.Map<K,V>,V>
implements javax.persistence.metamodel.MapAttribute<X,K,V>

Purpose: Provides the implementation for the MapAttribute interface of the JPA 2.0 Metamodel API (part of the JSR-317 EJB 3.1 Criteria API)

Description: Instances of the type MapAttribute represent persistent Map-valued attributes.

Since:

EclipseLink 1.2 - JPA 2.0

Constructor Detail

MapAttributeImpl

protected MapAttributeImpl(ManagedTypeImpl<X> managedType,
                           org.eclipse.persistence.mappings.CollectionMapping mapping)

INTERNAL:

Parameters:

managedType -

mapping -

MapAttributeImpl

protected MapAttributeImpl(ManagedTypeImpl<X> managedType,
                           org.eclipse.persistence.mappings.CollectionMapping mapping,
                           boolean validationEnabled)

INTERNAL: Create a new MapAttribute instance. The elementType field is instantiated in the superclass. The keyType field is instantiated in this constructor by using one of the following A) MapContainerPolicy by consulting the keyField or PK class B) MappedKeyMapContainerPolicy by using the mapKeyTargetType on the keyMapping or the attributeClassification on the attributeAccessor

Parameters:

managedType - - the owning type (EmbeddableTypes do not support mappings)

mapping - - contains the mapping policy

validationEnabled - - report errors in the metamodel
