Constructor Detail

RemoteDbContainer

public RemoteDbContainer(AppVersion defaultAppVersion)

Constructor - creates a new XmlContainer object with the given AppVersion as the default AppVersion for future framework calls on this container.

Parameters:

defaultAppVersion - the AppVersion to use in configuring this container

Method Detail

getAppVersion

public AppVersion getAppVersion()

Return the AppVersion associated with this XmlContainer . This AppVersion serves as a default AppVersion for subsequent calls into the persistence framework.

Specified by:

getAppVersion in interface Container

Returns:

the AppVersion defined for this container

getDefaultInstance

public static RemoteDbContainer getDefaultInstance()

Returns the default XmlContainer for the system. This container represents an xml container instance configured to use the default application version information.

Returns:

the default XmlContainer as defined based upon the default application version information

generateId

public Id generateId(DataType dataType,
                     java.lang.String strKey)
              throws PersistenceException

Generates an Id instance specific to this XmlContainer . The format of the provided string does not matter, but, it should be a unique value in order for the generated Id itself to be unique.

Specified by:

generateId in interface Container

Parameters:

dataType - the DataType of the object that the generated Id instance will refer to

strKey - the String value to use when generating the key value of the Id instance

Returns:

an Id implementation instance, appropriate to this XmlContainer, whose key value is generated from the given value

Throws:

PersistenceException - if an error occurs in the Id generation process

Id.toExternalString()

generateId

public Id generateId(DataType dataType,
                     int nKey1,
                     int nKey2)
              throws PersistenceException

Generates an Id instance specific to this XmlContainer . The value of the provided integers does not matter, but, the combination of the two values should be unique in order for the generated Id itself to be unique.

Specified by:

generateId in interface Container

Parameters:

dataType - the DataType of the object that the generated Id instance will refer to

nKey1 - an integer value to use when generating the key value of the Id instance

nKey2 - another integer value to use when generating the key value of the Id instance

Returns:

an Id implementation instance, appropriate to this Container, whose key value is generated from the given integer values

Throws:

PersistenceException - if an error occurs in the Id generation process

generateId

public Id generateId(DataType dataType,
                     int nKey1)
              throws PersistenceException

Generates an Id instance specific to this DatabaseContainer . The value of the provided integers does not matter, but, the combination of the two values should be unique in order for the generated Id itself to be unique.

Specified by:

generateId in interface Container

Parameters:

dataType - the DataType of the object that the generated Id instance will refer to

nKey1 - an integer value to use when generating the key value of the Id instance

Returns:

an Id implementation instance, appropriate to this DatabaseContainer, whose key value is generated from the given integer values

Throws:

PersistenceException - if an error occurs in the Id generation process

isValidId

public boolean isValidId(Id id)

Determines if the provided Id is a "valid" id for this XmlContainer.

An Id is considered valid for this XmlContainer if it is "set" (see Id.isSet()), if it originates from this xml container, and if it is an instance of the appropriate Id subclass for this xml container.

Specified by:

isValidId in interface Container

Parameters:

id - the Id to examine for validity

Returns:

true is the provided id is a valid id for this xml container, false otherwise
