detachAll

Object[] detachAll(Collection objs,

Detach the specified objects from the broker. The objects returned can be manipulated and re-attached with attachAll(java.util.Collection, boolean, org.apache.openjpa.kernel.OpCallbacks). The detached instances will be unmanaged copies of the specified parameters, and are suitable for serialization and manipulation outside of a OpenJPA environment. When detaching instances, only fields in the current FetchConfiguration will be traversed.

Parameters:

objs - array of instances to import

copyNew - whether to copy new instances

Returns:

the re-attached instances

newInstance

Object newInstance(Class cls)

Create a new instance of type cls. If cls is an interface or an abstract class whose abstract methods follow the JavaBeans convention, this method will create a concrete implementation according to the metadata that defines the class. Otherwise, if cls is a managed type, this will return an instance of the specified class.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if cls is not a managed type or interface.
