All Superinterfaces:

AutoCloseable

All Known Implementing Classes:

IdentifierBridgeRef.UndefinedBridgeImplementationType

public interface IdentifierBridge<I>
extends AutoCloseable

A bridge between a POJO property of type I and a document identifier.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
default void	close()	Close any resource before the bridge is discarded.
I	fromDocumentIdentifier(String documentIdentifier, IdentifierBridgeFromDocumentIdentifierContext context)	Transform the given document identifier value back to the value of the POJO property.
default boolean	isCompatibleWith(IdentifierBridge<?> other)
String	toDocumentIdentifier(I propertyValue, IdentifierBridgeToDocumentIdentifierContext context)	Transform the given POJO property value to the value of the document identifier.

Method Detail

toDocumentIdentifier

String toDocumentIdentifier(I propertyValue,
                            IdentifierBridgeToDocumentIdentifierContext context)

Transform the given POJO property value to the value of the document identifier.

Must return a unique value for each value of propertyValue

Parameters:

propertyValue - The POJO property value to be transformed.

context - A context that can be extended to a more useful type, giving access to such things as a Hibernate ORM SessionFactory (if using the Hibernate ORM mapper).

Returns:

The value of the document identifier.

fromDocumentIdentifier

I fromDocumentIdentifier(String documentIdentifier,
                         IdentifierBridgeFromDocumentIdentifierContext context)

Transform the given document identifier value back to the value of the POJO property.

Must be the exact inverse function of toDocumentIdentifier(Object, IdentifierBridgeToDocumentIdentifierContext), i.e. object.equals(fromDocumentIdentifier(toDocumentIdentifier(object, sessionContext))) must always be true.

Parameters:

documentIdentifier - The document identifier value to be transformed.

context - A sessionContext that can be extended to a more useful type, giving access to such things as a Hibernate ORM Session (if using the Hibernate ORM mapper).

Returns:

The value of the document identifier.

isCompatibleWith

default boolean isCompatibleWith(IdentifierBridge<?> other)

close

default void close()

Close any resource before the bridge is discarded.
