Class SequenceGenerator

java.lang.Object
  org.hibernate.id.SequenceGenerator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Configurable, IdentifierGenerator, PersistentIdentifierGenerator

Direct Known Subclasses:

SequenceHiLoGenerator, SequenceIdentityGenerator

public class SequenceGenerator

extends Object

implements PersistentIdentifierGenerator, Configurable

sequence

Method Detail

configure

public void configure(Type type,
                      Properties params,
                      Dialect dialect)
               throws MappingException

Description copied from interface: Configurable

Configure this instance, given the value of parameters specified by the user as <param> elements. This method is called just once, following instantiation.

Specified by:

configure in interface Configurable

Parameters:

params - param values, keyed by parameter name

Throws:

MappingException

generate

public Serializable generate(SessionImplementor session,
                             Object obj)
                      throws HibernateException

Description copied from interface: IdentifierGenerator

Generate a new identifier.

Specified by:

generate in interface IdentifierGenerator

Parameters:

session -

obj - the entity or toplevel collection for which the id is being generated

Returns:

a new identifier

Throws:

HibernateException

sqlCreateStrings

public String[] sqlCreateStrings(Dialect dialect)
                          throws HibernateException

Description copied from interface: PersistentIdentifierGenerator

The SQL required to create the underlying database objects.

Specified by:

sqlCreateStrings in interface PersistentIdentifierGenerator

Parameters:

dialect -

Returns:

String[]

Throws:

HibernateException

sqlDropStrings

public String[] sqlDropStrings(Dialect dialect)
                        throws HibernateException

Description copied from interface: PersistentIdentifierGenerator

The SQL required to remove the underlying database objects.

Specified by:

sqlDropStrings in interface PersistentIdentifierGenerator

Parameters:

dialect -

Returns:

String

Throws:

HibernateException

generatorKey

public Object generatorKey()

Description copied from interface: PersistentIdentifierGenerator

Return a key unique to the underlying database objects. Prevents us from trying to create/remove them multiple times.

Specified by:

generatorKey in interface PersistentIdentifierGenerator

Returns:

Object an identifying key for this generator

getSequenceName

public String getSequenceName()
