Method Detail

loadSafe

protected final P loadSafe(com.google.cloud.datastore.Value<D> value,
                           LoadContext ctx,
                           Path path)
                    throws SkipException

Description copied from class: NullSafeTranslator

Implement this, returning a proper translated value

Specified by:

loadSafe in class NullSafeTranslator<P,D>

Parameters:

value - will never be null or NullValue

Throws:

SkipException

saveSafe

protected final com.google.cloud.datastore.Value<D> saveSafe(P pojo,
                                                             boolean index,
                                                             SaveContext ctx,
                                                             Path path)
                                                      throws SkipException

Description copied from class: NullSafeTranslator

Implement this, returning a proper translated value

Specified by:

saveSafe in class NullSafeTranslator<P,D>

Parameters:

pojo - will never be null

Throws:

SkipException

loadValue

protected abstract P loadValue(com.google.cloud.datastore.Value<D> value,
                               LoadContext ctx,
                               Path path)
                        throws SkipException

Decode from a property value as stored in the datastore to a type that will be stored in a pojo.

Parameters:

value - will not be null and will actually be the correct type

Returns:

the format which should be stored in the pojo; a null means store a literal null!

Throws:

SkipException - if this field subtree should be skipped

saveValue

protected abstract com.google.cloud.datastore.Value<D> saveValue(P value,
                                                                 SaveContext ctx,
                                                                 Path path)
                                                          throws SkipException

Encode from a normal pojo value to a format that the datastore understands. Note that a null return value is a literal instruction to store a null.

Parameters:

value - will not be null

Returns:

the format which should be stored in the datastore; null means actually store a null!

Throws:

SkipException - if this subtree should be skipped
