Method Detail

__hasNumericPrimaryKeys

public boolean __hasNumericPrimaryKeys(com.webobjects.eocontrol.EOClassDescription classDescription)

Description copied from interface: IERXRestDelegate

This API will likely change. Override if you have to for now, but I'm not sure if it makes more sense to return an array of pk classes, a map of pk to pk class, this boolean, or an array of pk attribute names. If we return pk names, we could probably get rid of primaryKeyForObject, or at least fully implement it in ERXAbstractRestDelegate, but I don't want to fully commit to this API yet. In the meantime, this at least provides a stapgap for automatic registration.

Specified by:

__hasNumericPrimaryKeys in interface IERXRestDelegate

Parameters:

classDescription - the class description in question

Returns:

whether or not the given class description has numeric pks

setCreateMissingObjects

public void setCreateMissingObjects(boolean createMissingObjects)

shouldCreateMissingObjects

public boolean shouldCreateMissingObjects()

setEditingContext

public void setEditingContext(com.webobjects.eocontrol.EOEditingContext editingContext)

Description copied from interface: IERXRestDelegate

Sets the editing context fort his rest delegate (which might not be necessary, but EO delegates require it).

Specified by:

setEditingContext in interface IERXRestDelegate

Parameters:

editingContext - the editing context for this delegate

editingContext

public com.webobjects.eocontrol.EOEditingContext editingContext()

primaryKeyForObject

public java.lang.Object primaryKeyForObject(java.lang.Object obj)

Description copied from interface: IERXRestDelegate

Returns the primary key for the specified object.

Specified by:

primaryKeyForObject in interface IERXRestDelegate

Parameters:

obj - the object to return a pk for

Returns:

the primary key of the object

createObjectOfEntityWithID

public java.lang.Object createObjectOfEntityWithID(com.webobjects.eocontrol.EOClassDescription entity,
