Method Detail

getAlias

public String getAlias()
Description copied from interface: Strategy
Return the alias of this strategy. For custom strategies, return the full class name.

Specified by:
getAlias in interface Strategy
Overrides:
getAlias in class AbstractStrategy

map

public void map(boolean adapt)
Description copied from interface: Strategy
Map the owning mapping using this strategy.

Specified by:
map in interface Strategy
Overrides:
map in class AbstractStrategy
Parameters:
adapt - if true, use the owning mapping's raw mapping info to set its ORM data; if false, ORM data will already be set

select

public boolean select(Select sel,
                      ClassMapping mapping)
Description copied from interface: DiscriminatorStrategy
Select the data for this Discriminator.

Specified by:
select in interface DiscriminatorStrategy
Overrides:
select in class AbstractDiscriminatorStrategy
mapping - the known base class being selected; this may not be the base class in the inheritance hierarchy
Returns:
true if anything was selected; false otherwise

getClass

public Class getClass(JDBCStore store,
                      ClassMapping base,
                      Result res)
               throws SQLException,
                      ClassNotFoundException
Description copied from interface: DiscriminatorStrategy
Return the class for the current result row.

Specified by:
getClass in interface DiscriminatorStrategy
Overrides:
getClass in class AbstractDiscriminatorStrategy
Throws:
SQLException
ClassNotFoundException

getClassConditions

public SQLBuffer getClassConditions(Select sel,
                                    Joins joins,
                                    ClassMapping base,
                                    boolean subclasses)
Description copied from interface: DiscriminatorStrategy
Return SQL to limit the classes selected as much as possible to the given base class, and optionally its subclasses. Return null if no conditions needed. The select and joins instances are supplied in order to get column aliases.

Specified by:
getClassConditions in interface DiscriminatorStrategy
Overrides:
getClassConditions in class AbstractDiscriminatorStrategy
