Method Detail

getSlicesByPolicy

public static SliceInfo getSlicesByPolicy(Object pc,
                                          DistributedConfiguration conf,
                                          Object ctx)

Gets the target slices by calling user-specified DistributionPolicy or ReplicationPolicy depending on whether the given instance is replicated. The policy is invoked when an instance enters the managed life cycle. However, if the instance being persisted is distributed to a target slice that is not determinable by its own basic attributes, but on its associated instance then those association may not have been initialized at the point of entry. In such case, the policy may return null. However, when a target slice may not be determinable at the entry to managed life cycle, a target slice must be determinable by the time an instance is flushed.

Parameters:

pc - the managed instance whose target slice is to be determined.

conf - to supply the distribution policy

ctx - the (opaque) context of invocation. No semantics is currently associated.

Returns:

information about the target slice for the given instance. Can be null if the policy can not determine the target slice(s) based on the current state of the instance.

getSlicesByPolicy

public static SliceInfo getSlicesByPolicy(OpenJPAStateManager sm,
                                          DistributedConfiguration conf,
                                          Object ctx)

Gets the target slices for the given StateManager.

isReplicated

public static boolean isReplicated(Object pc,
                                   DistributedConfiguration conf)

Affirms if the given instance be replicated to multiple slices.

isSliceAssigned

public static boolean isSliceAssigned(OpenJPAStateManager sm)

Affirms if the given StateManager has an assigned slice.

getSliceInfo

public static SliceInfo getSliceInfo(OpenJPAStateManager sm)

Gets the assigned slice information, if any, from the given StateManager.
