Interface PersistenceManager

All Known Subinterfaces:
JDOEntityManager

public interface PersistenceManager

PersistenceManager is the primary interface for JDO-aware application components. It is the factory for Query and Transaction instances, and contains methods to manage the life cycle of PersistenceCapable instances.

A PersistenceManager is obtained from the PersistenceManagerFactory (recommended) or by construction.

Method Detail

isClosed

boolean isClosed()
A PersistenceManager instance can be used until it is closed.

Returns:
true if this PersistenceManager has been closed.
See Also:
close()

close

void close()
Close this PersistenceManager so that no further requests may be made on it. A PersistenceManager instance can be used only until it is closed.

Closing a PersistenceManager might release it to the pool of available PersistenceManagers, or might be garbage collected, at the option of the JDO implementation. Before being used again to satisfy a getPersistenceManager() request, the default values for options will be restored to their values as specified in the PersistenceManagerFactory.

This method closes the PersistenceManager.


currentTransaction

Transaction currentTransaction()
Return the Transaction instance associated with a PersistenceManager. There is one Transaction instance associated with each PersistenceManager instance. The Transaction instance supports options as well as transaction completion requests.

Returns:
the Transaction associated with this PersistenceManager.

evict

void evict(java.lang.Object pc)
Mark an instance as no longer needed in the cache. Eviction is normally done automatically by the PersistenceManager at transaction completion. This method allows the application to explicitly provide a hint to the PersistenceManager that the instance is no longer needed in the cache.

Parameters:
pc - the instance to evict from the cache.

evictAll

void evictAll(java.lang.Object... pcs)
Mark an array of instances as no longer needed in the cache.

Parameters:
pcs - the array of instances to evict from the cache.
See Also:
evict(Object pc)

evictAll

void evictAll(java.util.Collection pcs)
Mark a Collection of instances as no longer needed in the cache.

Parameters:
pcs - the Collection of instances to evict from the cache.
See Also:
evict(Object pc)

evictAll

void evictAll(boolean subclasses,
              java.lang.Class pcClass)
Mark the parameter instances as no longer needed in the cache.

Parameters:
pcClass - the class of instances to evict
subclasses - if true, mark instances of subclasses also
Since:
2.1

evictAll

void evictAll()
Mark all persistent-nontransactional instances as no longer needed in the cache. It transitions all persistent-nontransactional instances to hollow. Transactional instances are subject to eviction based on the RetainValues setting.

See Also:
evict(Object pc)

refresh

void refresh(java.lang.Object pc)
Refresh the state of the instance from the data store.

In an optimistic transaction, the state of instances in the cache might not match the state in the data store. This method is used to reload the state of the instance from the data store so that a subsequent commit is more likely to succeed.

Outside a transaction, this method will refresh nontransactional state.

Parameters:
pc - the instance to refresh.

refreshAll

void refreshAll(java.lang.Object... pcs)
Refresh the state of an array of instances from the data store.

Parameters:
pcs - the array of instances to refresh.
See Also:
refresh(Object pc)

Refresh the state of a Collection of instances from the data store.

Parameters:
pcs - the Collection of instances to refresh.
See Also:
refresh(Object pc)

refreshAll

void refreshAll()
Refresh the state of all applicable instances from the data store.

If called with an active transaction, all transactional instances will be refreshed. If called outside an active transaction, all nontransactional instances will be refreshed.

See Also:
refresh(Object pc)

refreshAll

void refreshAll(JDOException jdoe)
Refreshes all instances in the exception that failed verification.

Since:
2.0

newQuery

getExtent

<T> Extent<T> getExtent(java.lang.Class<T> persistenceCapableClass,
                        boolean subclasses)
The PersistenceManager manages a collection of instances in the data store based on the class of the instances. This method returns an Extent of instances in the data store that might be iterated or given to a Query. The Extent itself might not reference any instances, but only hold the class name and an indicator as to whether subclasses are included in the Extent.

Note that the Extent might be very large.

Parameters:
persistenceCapableClass - Class of instances
subclasses - whether to include instances of subclasses
Returns:
an Extent of the specified Class
See Also:
Query

getExtent

<T> Extent<T> getExtent(java.lang.Class<T> persistenceCapableClass)
Equivalent to getExtent (persistenceCapableClass, true).

Since:
2.0
See Also:
getExtent(Class,boolean)

getObjectById

java.lang.Object getObjectById(java.lang.Object oid,
                               boolean validate)
This method locates a persistent instance in the cache of instances managed by this PersistenceManager. The getObjectById method attempts to find an instance in the cache with the specified JDO identity. The oid parameter object might have been returned by an earlier call to getObjectId or getTransactionalObjectId, or might have been constructed by the application.

If the PersistenceManager is unable to resolve the oid parameter to an ObjectId instance, then it throws a JDOUserException.

If the validate flag is false, and there is already an instance in the cache with the same JDO identity as the oid parameter, then this method returns it. There is no change made to the state of the returned instance.

If there is not an instance already in the cache with the same JDO identity as the oid parameter, then this method creates an instance with the specified JDO identity and returns it. If there is no transaction in progress, the returned instance will be hollow or persistent-nontransactional, at the choice of the implementation.

If there is a transaction in progress, the returned instance will be hollow, persistent-nontransactional, or persistent-clean, at the choice of the implementation.

It is an implementation decision whether to access the data store, if required to determine the exact class. This will be the case of inheritance, where multiple PersistenceCapable classes share the same ObjectId class.

If the validate flag is false, and the instance does not exist in the data store, then this method might not fail. It is an implementation choice whether to fail immediately with a JDOObjectNotFoundException. But a subsequent access of the fields of the instance will throw a JDOObjectNotFoundException if the instance does not exist at that time. Further, if a relationship is established to this instance, then the transaction in which the association was made will fail.

If the validate flag is true, and there is already a transactional instance in the cache with the same JDO identity as the oid parameter, then this method returns it. There is no change made to the state of the returned instance.

If there is an instance already in the cache with the same JDO identity as the oid parameter, but the instance is not transactional, then it must be verified in the data store. If the instance does not exist in the datastore, then a JDOObjectNotFoundException is thrown.

If there is not an instance already in the cache with the same JDO identity as the oid parameter, then this method creates an instance with the specified JDO identity, verifies that it exists in the data store, and returns it. If there is no transaction in progress, the returned instance will be hollow or persistent-nontransactional, at the choice of the implementation.

If there is a data store transaction in progress, the returned instance will be persistent-clean. If there is an optimistic transaction in progress, the returned instance will be persistent-nontransactional.

Parameters:
oid - an ObjectId
validate - if the existence of the instance is to be validated
Returns:
the PersistenceCapable instance with the specified ObjectId
See Also:
getObjectId(Object pc), getTransactionalObjectId(Object pc)

getObjectById

<T> T getObjectById(java.lang.Class<T> cls,
                    java.lang.Object key)
Looks up the instance of the given type with the given key.

Parameters:
cls - The type of object to load
key - either the string representation of the object id, or an object representation of a single field identity key
Returns:
the corresponding persistent instance
Since:
2.0

getObjectById

java.lang.Object getObjectById(java.lang.Object oid)
Looks up the instance corresponding to the specified oid. This is equivalent to getObjectById(oid, true);

Parameters:
oid - The object id of the object to load
Returns:
the corresponding persistent instance

getObjectId

java.lang.Object getObjectId(java.lang.Object pc)
The ObjectId returned by this method represents the JDO identity of the instance. The ObjectId is a copy (clone) of the internal state of the instance, and changing it does not affect the JDO identity of the instance.

The getObjectId method returns an ObjectId instance that represents the object identity of the specified JDO instance. The identity is guaranteed to be unique only in the context of the JDO PersistenceManager that created the identity, and only for two types of JDO Identity: those that are managed by the application, and those that are managed by the data store.

If the object identity is being changed in the transaction, by the application modifying one or more of the application key fields, then this method returns the identity as of the beginning of the transaction. The value returned by getObjectId will be different following afterCompletion processing for successful transactions.

Within a transaction, the ObjectId returned will compare equal to the ObjectId returned by only one among all JDO instances associated with the PersistenceManager regardless of the type of ObjectId.

The ObjectId does not necessarily contain any internal state of the instance, nor is it necessarily an instance of the class used to manage identity internally. Therefore, if the application makes a change to the ObjectId instance returned by this method, there is no effect on the instance from which the ObjectId was obtained.

The getObjectById method can be used between instances of PersistenceManager of different JDO vendors only for instances of persistence capable classes using application-managed (primary key) JDO identity. If it is used for instances of classes using datastore identity, the method might succeed, but there are no guarantees that the parameter and return instances are related in any way.

Parameters:
pc - the PersistenceCapable instance
Returns:
the ObjectId of the instance
See Also:
getTransactionalObjectId(Object pc), getObjectById(Object oid, boolean validate)

getTransactionalObjectId

java.lang.Object getTransactionalObjectId(java.lang.Object pc)
The ObjectId returned by this method represents the JDO identity of the instance. The ObjectId is a copy (clone) of the internal state of the instance, and changing it does not affect the JDO identity of the instance.

If the object identity is being changed in the transaction, by the application modifying one or more of the application key fields, then this method returns the current identity in the transaction.

If there is no transaction in progress, or if none of the key fields is being modified, then this method will return the same value as getObjectId.

Parameters:
pc - a PersistenceCapable instance
Returns:
the ObjectId of the instance
See Also:
getObjectId(Object pc), getObjectById(Object oid, boolean validate)

newObjectIdInstance

java.lang.Object newObjectIdInstance(java.lang.Class pcClass,
                                     java.lang.Object key)
This method returns an object id instance corresponding to the pcClass and key arguments.

Parameters:
pcClass - the Class of the persistence-capable instance
key - for single-field identity, the parameter for the constructor; for non-single-field application identity, the result of toString() on the object id instance.
Returns:
an instance of the object identity class

Since:
2.0
See Also:

makePersistent

<T> T makePersistent(T pc)
Make the parameter instance persistent in this PersistenceManager. This method makes transient instances persistent and applies detached instance changes to the cache. It must be called in the context of an active transaction, or a JDOUserException is thrown. For a transient instance, it assigns an object identity to the instance and transitions it to persistent-new. Any transient instances reachable from this instance via persistent fields of this instance become provisionally persistent, transitively. That is, they behave as persistent-new instances (return true to isPersistent, isNew, and isDirty). But at commit time, the reachability algorithm is run again, and instances made provisionally persistent that are not then reachable from persistent instances will revert to transient.

During makePersistent of transient instances, the create life cycle listener is called.

For detached instances, it locates or instantiates a persistent instance with the same JDO identity as the detached instance, and merges the persistent state of the detached instance into the persistent instance. Only the state of persistent fields is merged. If non-persistent state needs to be copied, the application should use the jdoPostAttach callback or the postAttach lifecycle event listener. Any references to the detached instances from instances in the closure of the parameter instances are modified to refer to the corresponding persistent instance instead of to the detached instance.

During attachment of detached instances, the attach callbacks and attach life cycle listeners are called.

During application of changes of the detached state, if the JDO implementation can determine that there were no changes made during detachment, then the implementation is not required to mark the corresponding instance dirty. If it cannot determine if changes were made, then it must mark the instance dirty. No consistency checking is done during makePersistent of detached instances. If consistency checking is required by the application, then flush or checkConsistency should be called after attaching the instances.

These methods have no effect on parameter persistent instances already managed by this PersistenceManager. They will throw a JDOUserException if the parameter instance is managed by a different PersistenceManager. If an instance is of a class whose identity type (application, datastore, or none) is not supported by the JDO implementation, then a JDOUserException will be thrown for that instance. The return value for parameter instances in the transient or persistent states is the same as the parameter value. The return value for parameter instances in the detached state is the persistent instance corresponding to the detached instance. The return values for makePersistentAll methods correspond by position to the parameter instances.

Parameters:
pc - an instance of a Class that is persistent capable.
Returns:
the parameter instance for parameters in the transient or persistent state, or the corresponding persistent instance for detached parameter instances

makePersistentAll

<T> T[] makePersistentAll(T... pcs)

deletePersistent

void deletePersistent(java.lang.Object pc)
Delete the persistent instance from the data store. This method must be called in an active transaction. The data store object will be removed at commit. Unlike makePersistent, which makes the closure of the instance persistent, the closure of the instance is not deleted from the data store.

Parameters:
pc - a persistent instance

deletePersistentAll

void deletePersistentAll(java.lang.Object... pcs)
Delete an array of instances from the data store.

Parameters:
pcs - a Collection of persistent instances

makeTransactional

void makeTransactional(java.lang.Object pc)
Make an instance subject to transactional boundaries.

Transient instances normally do not observe transaction boundaries. This method makes transient instances sensitive to transaction completion. If an instance is modified in a transaction, and the transaction rolls back, the state of the instance is restored to the state before the first change in the transaction.

For persistent instances read in optimistic transactions, this method allows the application to make the state of the instance part of the transactional state. At transaction commit, the state of the instance in the cache is compared to the state of the instance in the data store. If they are not the same, then an exception is thrown.

Parameters:
pc - the instance to make transactional.

makeTransactionalAll

void makeTransactionalAll(java.lang.Object... pcs)
Make an array of instances subject to transactional boundaries.

Parameters:
pcs - the array of instances to make transactional.

              boolean useFetchPlan)
Retrieve field values of an instance from the store. This tells the PersistenceManager that the application intends to use the instance, and its field values must be retrieved.

If the useFetchPlan parameter is false, this method behaves exactly as the corresponding method without the useFetchPlan parameter. If the useFetchPlan parameter is true, and the fetch plan has not been modified from its default setting, all fields in the current fetch plan are fetched, and other fields might be fetched lazily by the implementation. If the useFetchPlan parameter is true, and the fetch plan has been changed from its default setting, then the fields specified by the fetch plan are loaded, along with related instances specified by the fetch plan.

Parameters:

This JDO Identity instance can then be used to get an instance of the PersistenceCapable class for use in the application.

In order for the application to construct an instance of the ObjectId class it needs to know the class being used by the JDO implementation.

Parameters:
cls - the PersistenceCapable Class
Returns:
the Class of the ObjectId of the parameter
See Also:
getObjectById(java.lang.Object, boolean)

setMultithreaded

void setMultithreaded(boolean flag)

setDetachAllOnCommit

void setDetachAllOnCommit(boolean flag)
Sets the detachAllOnCommit setting.

DetachAllOnCommit set to false specifies that the state of persistent instances in the cache after commit is defined by the retainValues flag. With this flag set to true, during beforeCompletion all cached instances are prepared for detachment according to the fetch plan in effect at commit. Loading fields and unloading fields required by the fetch plan is done after calling the user's beforeCompletion callback. During afterCompletion, before calling the user's afterCompletion callback, all detachable persistent instances in the cache transition to detached; non-detachable persistent instances transition to transient; and detachable instances can be serialized as detached instances. Transient transactional instances are unaffected by this flag.

Since:
2.0
See Also:
getDetachAllOnCommit()

getCopyOnAttach

boolean getCopyOnAttach()
Gets the copyOnAttach setting.

Returns:
the copyOnAttach setting.
Since:
2.1
See Also:
setCopyOnAttach(boolean)

setCopyOnAttach

void setCopyOnAttach(boolean flag)

CopyOnAttach set to true specifies that during makePersistent, copies are made of detached parameter instances. With this flag set to false, detached parameter instances are attached directly and change their state from detached-clean to persistent-clean or from detached-dirty to persistent-dirty.

Since:
2.1
See Also:
getCopyOnAttach()

detachCopy

<T> T detachCopy(T pc)
Detach the specified instance from the PersistenceManager. The flags for detachment (DETACH_LOAD_FIELDS and DETACH_UNLOAD_FIELDS) and the active fetch groups determine the scope of fetching for the graph of instances reachable from the pc parameter. The state of fields in the affected instances is as specified by the FetchPlan.

Parameters:
pc - the instance to detach
Returns:
the detached instance
Since:
2.0
See Also:
detachCopyAll(Object[])

detachCopyAll

<T> java.util.Collection<T> detachCopyAll(java.util.Collection<T> pcs)
Detach the specified instances from the PersistenceManager. The flags for detachment (DETACH_LOAD_FIELDS and DETACH_UNLOAD_FIELDS) and the active fetch groups determine the scope of fetching for the graph of instances reachable from the pcs parameter. The state of fields in the affected instances is as specified by the FetchPlan.

Parameters:
pcs - the instances to detach
Returns:
the detached instances
Since:
2.0

detachCopyAll

<T> T[] detachCopyAll(T... pcs)
Detach the specified instances from the PersistenceManager. The flags for detachment (DETACH_LOAD_FIELDS and DETACH_UNLOAD_FIELDS) and the active fetch groups determine the scope of fetching for the graph of instances reachable from the pcs parameter. The state of fields in the affected instances is as specified by the FetchPlan. The objects returned can be manipulated and re-attached with makePersistentAll(Object[]). The detached instances will be unmanaged copies of the specified parameters, and are suitable for serialization and manipulation outside of a JDO environment. When detaching instances, only fields in the current FetchPlan will be traversed. Thus, to detach a graph of objects, relations to other persistent instances must either be in the default-fetch-group, or in the current custom FetchPlan.

Parameters:
pcs - the instances to detach

flush

void flush()
Flushes all dirty, new, and deleted instances to the data store. It has no effect if a transaction is not active.

If a datastore transaction is active, this method synchronizes the cache with the datastore and reports any exceptions.

If an optimistic transaction is active, this method obtains a datastore connection, synchronizes the cache with the datastore using this connection and reports any exceptions. The connection obtained by this method is held until the end of the transaction.

If exceptions occur during flush, the implementation will set the current transaction's RollbackOnly flag (see Transaction.setRollbackOnly()).

Since:
2.0

checkConsistency

void checkConsistency()
Validates the PersistenceManager cache with the datastore. This method has no effect if a transaction is not active.

If a datastore transaction is active, this method verifies the consistency of instances in the cache against the datastore. An implementation might flush instances as if flush() were called, but it is not required to do so.

If an optimistic transaction is active, this method obtains a datastore connection and verifies the consistency of the instances in the cache against the datastore. If any inconsistencies are detected, a JDOOptimisticVerificationException is thrown. This exception contains a nested JDOOptimisticVerificationException for each object that failed the consistency check. No datastore resources acquired during the execution of this method are held beyond the scope of this method.
