Method Detail

getConfiguration

OpenJPAConfiguration getConfiguration()
Return the configuration for this factory.


getProperties

Properties getProperties()
Return properties describing this runtime.


putUserObject

Object putUserObject(Object key,
                     Object val)
Put the specified key-value pair into the map of user objects.


getUserObject

Object getUserObject(Object key)
Get the value for the specified key from the map of user objects.


getStoreCache

StoreCache getStoreCache()
Access the level 2 store cache. This cache acts as a proxy to all named caches.


getStoreCache

StoreCache getStoreCache(String name)
Access a named level 2 store cache.


getQueryResultCache

QueryResultCache getQueryResultCache()
Access query result cache.


createEntityManager

OpenJPAEntityManager createEntityManager()

createEntityManager

OpenJPAEntityManager createEntityManager(Map props)
Return an entity manager with the provided additional configuration settings. OpenJPA recognizes the following configuration settings in this method:


addLifecycleListener

void addLifecycleListener(Object listener,
                          Class... classes)
Register a listener for lifecycle-related events on the specified classes. If the classes are null, all events will be propagated to the listener. The listener will be passed on to all new entity managers. See the org.apache.openjpa.event package for listener types.

0.3.3

removeLifecycleListener

void removeLifecycleListener(Object listener)
Remove a listener for lifecycle-related events.

Since:
0.3.3
