Interface SetJoin<Z,E>

Type Parameters:

Z - the source type of the join

E - the element type of the target Set

All Superinterfaces:

Expression<E>, FetchParent<Z,E>, From<Z,E>, Join<Z,E>, Path<E>, PluralJoin<Z,Set<E>,E>, Selection<E>, TupleElement<E>

public interface SetJoin<Z,E>
extends PluralJoin<Z,Set<E>,E>

The SetJoin interface is the type of the result of joining to a collection over an association or element collection that has been specified as a java.util.Set.

Since:

Java Persistence 2.0
