public class PersistentTypeSummary
extends Object

The COM.odi.PersistentTypeSummary class allows the types used by a Java application or library to be identified. An application can create instances of this class or extend this class, as is done by the postprocessor to create a version with a no-arguments constructor.

PersistentTypeSummary(String[], String[]): Constructs a persistent type summary object.

getIncludedLibrarySummaries(): Obtains an array of class names that are expected to name subclasses of PersistentTypeSummary.
getPersistentClasses(): Obtains an array of class names that the application or library has identified as being potentially persistent.

PersistentTypeSummary

  public PersistentTypeSummary(String persistentClasses[],
                               String includedLibrarySummaries[])

Constructs a persistent type summary object.

Parameters:: persistentClasses - An array of class names that have been identified as potentially persistent.; includedLibrarySummaries - An array of class names, each of which should be a class that extends PersistentTypeSummary. These classes are typically summary classes for libraries used by an application or library. These classes are normally generated by the postprocessor as the result of using the -summary option and must have a no-argument constructor available.

getPersistentClasses

  public String[] getPersistentClasses()

Obtains an array of class names that the application or library has identified as being potentially persistent.

getIncludedLibrarySummaries

  public String[] getIncludedLibrarySummaries()

Obtains an array of class names that are expected to name subclasses of PersistentTypeSummary. These are expected to be the library summaries for the libraries that the application uses and that might have persistent classes. The library summaries are separated from the persistent classes so that a library used by the application can be extended without requiring regeneration of the application type summary.
