org.hibernate.collection
Interface PersistentCollection

All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractPersistentCollection

public interface PersistentCollection

Persistent collections are treated as value objects by Hibernate. ie. they have no independent existence beyond the object holding a reference to them. Unlike instances of entity classes, they are automatically deleted when unreferenced and automatically become persistent when held by a persistent object. Collections can be passed between different objects (change "roles") and this might cause their elements to move from one database table to another.

Hibernate "wraps" a java collection in an instance of PersistentCollection. This mechanism is designed to support tracking of changes to the collection's persistent state and lazy instantiation of collection elements. The downside is that only certain abstract collection types are supported and any extra semantics are lost

Applications should never use classes in this package directly, unless extending the "framework" here.

Changes to structure of the collection are recorded by the collection calling back to the session. Changes to mutable elements (ie. composite elements) are discovered by cloning their state when the collection is initialized and comparing at flush time.
