Utility to return the names of the classes that are known subclasses of the provided class. Actually uses the MetaDataManager for determining what is a subclass since the MetaData is often registered before being needed by the Store.

Parameters:

className - Class for which we search for subclasses.

includeDescendents - Whether to include subclasses of subclasses etc

clr - The ClassLoaderResolver

Returns:

Set of classes that are subclasses of the input class. TODO Use method in MetaDataManager and remove this

notifyObjectIsOutdated

void notifyObjectIsOutdated(StateManager sm)

Notifies this store manager that the main memory (RAM, heap) copy of the PC object of the supplied StateManager may not be regarded as valid anymore. (The most common case is that the state of the PC becomes HOLLOW). This is especially important for object databases employing implicit storing from the main memory to the database (like DB4O). These databases may stop tracking the main memory copy and linking it with its on-disk copy, thus releasing memory. More importantly, these databases then know that the object should be reloaded when it is (maybe even implicitly) accessed again. To be clear: There may be multiple copies of the data of one PC object (from the user perspective), namely a copy in main memory (on the Java heap) and a copy in the database (usually on disk). As there may be multiple copies, some of these copies may be outdated or invalid. In case such a copy is to be accessed, its contents should not be used. Rather than that, the outdated copy should be overwritten by an authorative copy. This method marks the main memory copy of the object (on the Java heap) to be outdated in that sense.

getBackingStoreForField

Store getBackingStoreForField(ClassLoaderResolver clr,
                              AbstractMemberMetaData fmd,
                              java.lang.Class type)

Accessor for the backing store for the specified field. Override it if the store needs this

Parameters:

clr - ClassLoader resolver

fmd - MetaData for the field/property

type - Type

Returns:

Backing store

Throws:

IncompatibleFieldTypeException - raises the exception if the field is not compatible if the store

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - if BackingStore is not supported
