Defines the types of mapping between java enum and database table.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
ENUM Indicates that the associated java enum has a leading status.
NO_ACTION Indicates that the no special action will be taken to ensure integrity between java enum and database table representations.
TABLE Indicates that the associated database table has a leading status.

Enum Constant Detail

NO_ACTION

public static final EnumMappingTable.MappingType NO_ACTION

Indicates that the no special action will be taken to ensure integrity between java enum and database table representations. Standard EnumMapping rules will be applied to persist given values to the database. In order to fine-tune the mapping behaviour, one of two other types must be chosen. This is the default type.

TABLE

public static final EnumMappingTable.MappingType TABLE

Indicates that the associated database table has a leading status. Database table must ensure the integrity of changes made to the enum constants. Information in the associated java enum will be updated accordingly.

ENUM

public static final EnumMappingTable.MappingType ENUM

Indicates that the associated java enum has a leading status. Enum class must ensure the integrity of changes made to the database table. Information in the associated database table will be updated accordingly.

Method Detail

values

public static EnumMappingTable.MappingType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (EnumMappingTable.MappingType c : EnumMappingTable.MappingType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static EnumMappingTable.MappingType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
