Element Detail

persistenceModifier
PersistenceModifier persistenceModifier
Modifier for this field. This is normally not specified, and the defaults are used, or the @Transactional or @NotPersistent annotation is specified directly on the member. One possible use for specifying persistenceModifier is for embedded instances in which a member is not persistent but in the non-embedded instances the member is persistent. Note that it is not portable to specify a member to be not persistent in the non-embedded case and persistent in the embedded usage.- Returns:
- the persistence modifier

- javax.jdo.annotations.PersistenceModifier.UNSPECIFIED
-
-

Whether the values of this member are serialized.- Returns:
- whether the values of this member are serialized
- Default:
- ""
-
-
-
dependent
String dependent
Whether related object(s) of this member are dependent and so deleted when this object is deleted.- Returns:
- whether the related object(s) of this member are dependent
- Default:

-
primaryKey
String primaryKey
Whether this member is part of the primary key for application identity. This is equivalent to specifying @PrimaryKey as a separate annotation on the member.- Returns:
- whether this member is part of the primary key
- Default:
- ""
-
-
-
valueStrategy
IdGeneratorStrategy valueStrategy
Value strategy to use to generate the value for this field or property (if any).- Returns:
