TopLinkOperations (Spring Framework API 2.0) - Spring Framework 2.0.5 API 文档英文版

The Spring Framework

org.springframework.orm.toplink
Interface TopLinkOperations

All Known Implementing Classes:
TopLinkTemplate

public interface TopLinkOperations

Interface that specifies a basic set of TopLink operations, implemented by TopLinkTemplate. Not often used, but a useful option to enhance testability, as it can easily be mocked or stubbed.

Defines TopLinkTemplate's data access methods that mirror various TopLink Session / UnitOfWork methods. Users are strongly encouraged to read the TopLink javadocs for details on the semantics of those methods.

Since:
1.2
Author:

Method Detail

execute

Object execute(TopLinkCallback action)
               throws DataAccessException
Execute the action specified by the given action object within a TopLink Session. Application exceptions thrown by the action object get propagated to the caller (can only be unchecked). TopLink exceptions are transformed into appropriate DAO ones. Allows for returning a result object, i.e. a domain object or a collection of domain objects.

Note: Callback code is not supposed to handle transactions itself! Use an appropriate transaction manager like TopLinkTransactionManager.

Parameters:
action - callback object that specifies the TopLink action
Returns:
a result object returned by the action, or null
Throws:
DataAccessException - in case of TopLink errors
See Also:
TopLinkTransactionManager, org.springframework.dao, org.springframework.transaction, Session

executeFind

List executeFind(TopLinkCallback action)
                 throws DataAccessException

Parameters:
action - callback object that specifies the TopLink action
Returns:
a Collection result returned by the action, or null
Throws:
DataAccessException - in case of TopLink errors

refresh

Object refresh(Object entity)

refreshAll

List refreshAll(Collection entities)

A returned object will only be different from the corresponding passed-in object if the passed-in object is not the currently registered version of the corresponding entity.

Retrieves read-write objects from the TopLink UnitOfWork in case of a non-read-only transaction, and read-only objects else.

Parameters:
entities - the entity objects to refresh
Returns:
the refreshed versions of the entity objects

Refresh the given entity objects, returning the corresponding refreshed objects.

A returned object will only be different from the corresponding passed-in object if the passed-in object is not the currently registered version of the corresponding entity.

Parameters:
entities - the entity objects to refresh
enforceReadOnly - whether to always retrieve read-only objects from the plain TopLink Session (else, read-write objects will be retrieved from the TopLink UnitOfWork in case of a non-read-only transaction)

register

Object register(Object entity)
Register the given (new or existing) entity with the current UnitOfWork.

The entity will be checked for existence, according to TopLink's configured existence checking policy. To avoid the (potentially costly) existence check, consider using the specific registerNew or registerExisting method. Do not edit the passed-in object any further afterwards.

Parameters:
entity - the entity to register
Returns:
the registered clone of the original object, which needs to be used for further editing
Throws:
DataAccessException - in case of TopLink errors
See Also:
UnitOfWork.registerObject(Object), registerNew(Object), registerExisting(Object)

registerAll

List registerAll(Collection entities)
Register all given entities with the current UnitOfWork. Do not edit the passed-in objects any further afterwards.

Parameters:
entities - the entities to register
Returns:
the registered clones of the original objects, which need to be used for further editing
Throws:
DataAccessException - in case of TopLink errors
See Also:
UnitOfWork.registerAllObjects(java.util.Collection)

registerNew

void registerNew(Object entity)
Register the given new entity with the current UnitOfWork. The passed-in object can be edited further afterwards.

Parameters:
entity - the new entity to register
Throws:
DataAccessException - in case of TopLink errors
See Also:
UnitOfWork.registerNewObject(Object)

registerExisting

Object registerExisting(Object entity)
Register the given existing entity with the current UnitOfWork. Do not edit the passed-in object any further afterwards.

Parameters:
entity - the existing entity to register
Returns:
the registered clone of the original object, which needs to be used for further editing
Throws:
DataAccessException - in case of TopLink errors
See Also:
UnitOfWork.registerExistingObject(Object)

merge

Object merge(Object entity)
             throws DataAccessException
Reassociate the given entity copy with the current UnitOfWork, using simple merging.

The given object will not be reassociated itself: instead, the state will be copied onto the persistent object with the same identifier. In case of a new entity, merge will copy to a registered object as well, but will also update the identifier of the passed-in object.

Parameters:
entity - the updated copy to merge
Returns:
the updated, registered persistent instance
Throws:
DataAccessException - in case of TopLink errors
See Also:
UnitOfWork.mergeClone(Object)

deepMerge

Object deepMerge(Object entity)
                 throws DataAccessException
Reassociate the given entity copy with the current UnitOfWork, using deep merging of all contained entities.

The given object will not be reassociated itself: instead, the state will be copied onto the persistent object with the same identifier. In case of a new entity, merge will register a copy as well, but will also update the identifier of the passed-in object.

Parameters:
entity - the updated copy to merge
Returns:
the updated, registered persistent instance
Throws:
DataAccessException - in case of TopLink errors
See Also:
UnitOfWork.deepMergeClone(Object)

shallowMerge

Object shallowMerge(Object entity)
                    throws DataAccessException
Reassociate the given entity copy with the current UnitOfWork, using shallow merging of the entity instance.

The given object will not be reassociated itself: instead, the state will be copied onto the persistent object with the same identifier. In case of a new entity, merge will register a copy as well, but will also update the identifier of the passed-in object.

Parameters:
entity - the updated copy to merge
Returns:
the updated, registered persistent instance
Throws:
DataAccessException - in case of TopLink errors
See Also:
UnitOfWork.shallowMergeClone(Object)

mergeWithReferences

Object mergeWithReferences(Object entity)
                           throws DataAccessException
Reassociate the given entity copy with the current UnitOfWork, using merging with all references from this clone.

The given object will not be reassociated itself: instead, the state will be copied onto the persistent object with the same identifier. In case of a new entity, merge will register a copy as well, but will also update the identifier of the passed-in object.

Parameters:
entity - the updated copy to merge
Returns:
the updated, registered persistent instance
Throws:
DataAccessException - in case of TopLink errors
See Also:
UnitOfWork.mergeCloneWithReferences(Object)

            throws DataAccessException
Delete the given entity.

Parameters:
entity - the entity to delete
