Class Sequence

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.eclipse.persistence.sequencing.Sequence
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable
Direct Known Subclasses:
DefaultSequence, StandardSequence

public abstract class Sequence
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable

Purpose: Abstract class to define sequencing.

Description A sequence defines how generated ids are obtained. The main sequence types are TableSequence and NativeSequence. Descriptors using sequencing will use the sequence object defined in their session's DatabaseLogin with the name matching their sequence name. If a specific sequence is not defined for the name the DatabaseLogin's default sequence will be used.

INTERNAL: Used in equals.


setDatasourcePlatform

protected void setDatasourcePlatform(org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.Platform platform)

getDatasourcePlatform

public org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.Platform getDatasourcePlatform()

shouldAcquireValueAfterInsert

public abstract boolean shouldAcquireValueAfterInsert()
INTERNAL: Indicates whether sequencing value should be acquired after INSERT. Note that preallocation could be used only in case sequencing values should be acquired before insert (this method returns false). In default implementation, it is true for table sequencing and native sequencing on Oracle platform, false for native sequencing on other platforms.


shouldUsePreallocation

public boolean shouldUsePreallocation()
INTERNAL: Indicates whether several sequencing values should be acquired at a time and be kept by TopLink. This in only possible in case sequencing numbers should be acquired before insert (shouldAcquireValueAfterInsert()==false). In default implementation, it is true for table sequencing and native sequencing on Oracle platform, false for native sequencing on other platforms.


shouldUseTransaction

public abstract boolean shouldUseTransaction()
INTERNAL: Indicates whether TopLink should internally call beginTransaction() before getGeneratedValue/Vector, and commitTransaction after. In default implementation, it is true for table sequencing and false for native sequencing.


getGeneratedValue

public abstract java.lang.Object getGeneratedValue(org.eclipse.persistence.internal.databaseaccess.Accessor accessor,
                                                   org.eclipse.persistence.internal.sessions.AbstractSession writeSession,
                                                   java.lang.String seqName)
INTERNAL: Return the newly-generated sequencing value. Used only in case preallocation is not used (shouldUsePreallocation()==false). Accessor may be non-null only in case shouldUseSeparateConnection()==true. Even in this case accessor could be null - if SequencingControl().shouldUseSeparateConnection()==false; Therefore in case shouldUseSeparateConnection()==true, implementation should handle both cases: use a separate connection if provided (accessor != null), or get by without it (accessor == null).

Parameters:
accessor - Accessor is a separate sequencing accessor (may be null);
writeSession - Session is a Session used for writing (either ClientSession or DatabaseSession);
seqName - String is sequencing number field name

INTERNAL: Return the newly-generated sequencing value. Used only in case preallocation is not used (shouldUsePreallocation()==false). Accessor may be non-null only in case shouldUseSeparateConnection()==true. Even in this case accessor could be null - if SequencingControl().shouldUseSeparateConnection()==false; Therefore in case shouldUseSeparateConnection()==true, implementation should handle both cases: use a separate connection if provided (accessor != null), or get by without it (accessor == null).

Parameters:
