Enum SurrogateColumnType

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Comparable<SurrogateColumnType>

    public enum SurrogateColumnType
    extends Enum<SurrogateColumnType>
    Enum defining the types of surrogate columns for a class. The
    fieldNumber
    is used where we need to pass a list of fields to be fetched, or updated, and want to include surrogate fields. The normal fields of a class are numbered from 0 upwards, so we use negative numbers for the surrogates.
    • Method Detail

      • values

        public static SurrogateColumnType[] 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 (SurrogateColumnType c : SurrogateColumnType.values())
            System.out.println(c);
        
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
      • valueOf

        public static SurrogateColumnType 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
