void	closeAll() Close all open iterators that are consuming database resources.
Extent	getDelegate() Deprecated. cast to ExtentImpl instead. This method pierces the published-API boundary, as does the SPI cast.
Class<T>	getElementClass() The extent's element type.
OpenJPAEntityManager	getEntityManager() The owning entity manager.
FetchPlan	getFetchPlan() Fetch configuration for controlling how iterated objects are loaded.
boolean	getIgnoreChanges() Whether the extent sees inserts and deletes in the current transaction.
boolean	hasSubclasses() Whether the extent includes subclasses.
List<T>	list() List the extent contents.
