java.lang.Object
  extended by org.springframework.data.mapping.context.AbstractMappingContext<E,P>
All Implemented Interfaces:
InitializingBean, ApplicationEventPublisherAware, MappingContext<E,P>

public abstract class AbstractMappingContext<E extends MutablePersistentEntity<?,P>,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>
extends Object
implements MappingContext<E,P>, InitializingBean, ApplicationEventPublisherAware

AbstractMappingContext

public AbstractMappingContext()
Method Detail

setApplicationEventPublisher

public void setApplicationEventPublisher(ApplicationEventPublisher applicationEventPublisher)
Specified by:
setApplicationEventPublisher in interface ApplicationEventPublisherAware

setInitialEntitySet

public void setInitialEntitySet(Set<? extends Class<?>> initialEntitySet)
Sets the Set of types to populate the context initially.

Parameters:
initialEntitySet -

setStrict

public void setStrict(boolean strict)
Configures whether the MappingContext is in strict mode which means, that it will throw MappingExceptions in case one tries to lookup a PersistentEntity not already in the context. This defaults to false so that unknown types will be transparently added to the MappingContext if not known in advance.

Parameters:
strict -

setSimpleTypeHolder

public void setSimpleTypeHolder(SimpleTypeHolder simpleTypes)
Configures the SimpleTypeHolder to be used by the MappingContext. Allows customization of what types will be regarded as simple types and thus not recursively analysed. Setting this to null will reset the context to use the default SimpleTypeHolder.

Parameters:
simpleTypes -

getPersistentEntities

public Collection<E> getPersistentEntities()
Description copied from interface: MappingContext
Returns all PersistentEntitys held in the context.

Specified by:
getPersistentEntities in interface MappingContext<E extends MutablePersistentEntity<?,P>,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>
Returns:

getPersistentEntity

public E getPersistentEntity(Class<?> type)
Description copied from interface: MappingContext
Returns a PersistentEntity for the given Class.

Specified by:
getPersistentEntity in interface MappingContext<E extends MutablePersistentEntity<?,P>,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>
Returns:

getPersistentEntity

public E getPersistentEntity(TypeInformation<?> type)
Description copied from interface: MappingContext
Returns a PersistentEntity for the given TypeInformation.

Specified by:
getPersistentEntity in interface MappingContext<E extends MutablePersistentEntity<?,P>,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>
Returns:

getPersistentPropertyPath

public <T> Iterable<P> getPersistentPropertyPath(Class<T> type,
                                                 String path)
Description copied from interface: MappingContext
Returns all PersistentPropertys for the given path expression based on the given root Class. Path expression are dot separated, e.g. person.firstname.

Specified by:
getPersistentPropertyPath in interface MappingContext<E extends MutablePersistentEntity<?,P>,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>
Returns:

getEntityValidators

public List<Validator> getEntityValidators(E entity)
Description copied from interface: MappingContext
Obtains a validator for the given entity TODO: Why do we need validators at the MappingContext?

Specified by:
getEntityValidators in interface MappingContext<E extends MutablePersistentEntity<?,P>,P extends PersistentProperty<P>>
Parameters:
entity - The entity
Returns:
A validator or null if none exists for the given entity

addPersistentEntity

Adds the given type to the MappingContext.

Parameters:

Returns:

addPersistentEntity

protected E addPersistentEntity(TypeInformation<?> typeInformation)
Adds the given TypeInformation to the MappingContext.

Parameters:

Creates the concrete PersistentEntity instance.

Type Parameters:

Returns:

createPersistentProperty

protected abstract P createPersistentProperty(Field field,
                                              PropertyDescriptor descriptor,

                                              SimpleTypeHolder simpleTypeHolder)
Creates the concrete instance of PersistentProperty.

Parameters:

descriptor -
owner -
