Interface JPAEdmNavigationPropertyView

All Superinterfaces:

JPAEdmBaseView

public interface JPAEdmNavigationPropertyView
extends JPAEdmBaseView

A view on Java persistence entity relationship and EDM navigation property. Java persistence entity relationships annotated as

1. Many To Many
2. One To Many
3. One To One
4. Many To One

are transformed into navigation properties.

The implementation of the view provides access to EDM navigation properties for a given JPA EDM entity type. The view acts as a container for consistent list of EDM navigation properties of an EDM entity type. EDM navigation property is consistent only if there exists a consistent EDM association.

Method Detail

addJPAEdmNavigationPropertyView

void addJPAEdmNavigationPropertyView(JPAEdmNavigationPropertyView view)

The method adds a navigation property view to its container.

Parameters:

view - is an instance of type JPAEdmNavigationPropertyView

getConsistentEdmNavigationProperties

List<NavigationProperty> getConsistentEdmNavigationProperties()

The method returns a consistent list of EDM navigation property. A navigation property is consistent only if all its mandatory properties can be built with no errors from Java persistence entity relationship.

Returns:

a list of consistent EDM navigation property for the Entity

getEdmNavigationProperty

NavigationProperty getEdmNavigationProperty()

The method returns the navigation property that is currently being processed.

Returns:

an instance of type NavigationProperty
