Package org.hibernate.persister.entity

This package abstracts persistence mechanisms for entities.

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
AbstractEntityPersister.CacheEntryHelper	Consolidated these onto a single helper because the 2 pieces work in tandem.
AttributeMappingsList	This is essentially a List of AttributeMapping(s), but exposing an interface which is more suitable to our needs; in particular it expresses the immutable nature of this structure, and allows us to extend it with additional convenience methods such as AttributeMappingsList.indexedForEach(IndexedConsumer).
AttributeMappingsMap	Similarly to @AttributeMappingsList, this is essentially an immutable Map of AttributeMapping(s), allowing iteration of all mappings but also retrieval by name (a String key).
DiscriminatorMetadata	Provides the information needed to properly handle type discrimination in HQL queries, either by 'something.class' or 'type(something)' references.
EntityPersister	A strategy for persisting a mapped entity class.
Joinable	Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version. Use ModelPartContainer, TableGroupProducer and/or TableGroupJoinProducer instead depending on need
Loadable	Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version. Use EntityMappingType
Lockable	Contract for things that can be locked via a LockingStrategy.
OuterJoinLoadable	A EntityPersister that may be loaded by outer join using and may be an element of a one-to-many association.
PropertyMapping	Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version. This interface is obsolete
Queryable	Deprecated. Use EntityMappingType instead
SQLLoadable	An EntityPersister that supports queries expressed in the platform native SQL dialect.
UniqueKeyLoadable	An EntityPersister that can be loaded by a non-primary unique key.
