Enum Constant Detail

TO_ONE

public static final RelationType TO_ONE
A single-reference-valued relation. The entity owns the relation.


TO_ONE_NOT_OWNING

public static final RelationType TO_ONE_NOT_OWNING
A single-reference-valued relation. The entity doesn't own the relation. It is directly mapped in the related entity.


TO_MANY_NOT_OWNING

public static final RelationType TO_MANY_NOT_OWNING
A collection-of-references-valued relation. The entity doesn't own the relation. It is directly mapped in the related entity.


TO_MANY_MIDDLE

public static final RelationType TO_MANY_MIDDLE
A collection-of-references-valued relation. The entity owns the relation. It is mapped using a middle table.


TO_MANY_MIDDLE_NOT_OWNING

public static final RelationType TO_MANY_MIDDLE_NOT_OWNING
A collection-of-references-valued relation. The entity doesn't own the relation. It is mapped using a middle table.

Method Detail

values

public static RelationType[] values()
Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
for (RelationType c : RelationType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:
an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static RelationType valueOf(String name)
Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:
name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
Returns:
the enum constant with the specified name
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
NullPointerException - if the argument is null
