Class AccessMethodsMetadata

java.lang.Object

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metadata.ORMetadata

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metadata.mappings.AccessMethodsMetadata

public class AccessMethodsMetadata
extends ORMetadata

INTERNAL: Metadata for user specified property access methods and also used with VIRTUAL access types. When specified in XML the set and get method names are required. For VIRTUAL access defaults we use the defaults "get" and "set" if no access methods are specified. Key notes: - any metadata mapped from XML to this class must be compared in the equals method. - when loading from annotations, the constructor accepts the metadata accessor this metadata was loaded from. Used it to look up any 'companion' annotation needed for processing. - methods should be preserved in alphabetical order.

EclipseLink 1.0M8
