Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Object	deepCopy(Object value, SessionFactoryImplementor factory) Deprecated. Return a deep copy of the persistent state, stopping at entities and at collections.
boolean	isMutable() Deprecated. Are objects of this type mutable.
Object	replace(Object original, Object target, SessionImplementor session, Object owner, Map copyCache) Deprecated. During merge, replace the existing (target) value in the entity we are merging to with a new (original) value from the detached entity we are merging.

Method Detail

deepCopy

public final Object deepCopy(Object value,
              SessionFactoryImplementor factory)

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: Type

Return a deep copy of the persistent state, stopping at entities and at collections.

Parameters:

value - The value to be copied

factory - The session factory

Returns:

The deep copy

isMutable

public final boolean isMutable()

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: Type

Are objects of this type mutable. (With respect to the referencing object ... entities and collections are considered immutable because they manage their own internal state.)

Returns:

boolean

replace

public Object replace(Object original,
             Object target,
             SessionImplementor session,
             Object owner,
             Map copyCache)
               throws HibernateException

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: Type

During merge, replace the existing (target) value in the entity we are merging to with a new (original) value from the detached entity we are merging. For immutable objects, or null values, it is safe to simply return the first parameter. For mutable objects, it is safe to return a copy of the first parameter. For objects with component values, it might make sense to recursively replace component values.

Parameters:

original - the value from the detached entity being merged

target - the value in the managed entity

session - The originating session

owner - The owner of the value

copyCache - The cache of already copied/replaced values

Returns:

the value to be merged

Throws:

HibernateException - An error from Hibernate
