Performs processing related to creating natural-id cross-reference entries on load. Handles both the local (transactional) and shared (second-level) caches.

Parameters:

id - The primary key value

naturalIdValues - The natural id values

manageLocalNaturalIdCrossReference

void manageLocalNaturalIdCrossReference(EntityPersister persister,
                                        Serializable id,

Creates necessary local cross-reference entries.

Parameters:

persister - The persister representing the entity type.

id - The primary key value

state - Generally the "full entity state array", though could also be the natural id values array

previousState - Generally the "full entity state array", though could also be the natural id values array. Specifically represents the previous values on update, and so is only used with CachedNaturalIdValueSource.UPDATE

source - Enumeration representing how these values are coming into cache.

removeLocalNaturalIdCrossReference

Object[] removeLocalNaturalIdCrossReference(EntityPersister persister,
                                            Serializable id,
                                            Object[] state)

Cleans up local cross-reference entries.

Parameters:

persister - The persister representing the entity type.

id - The primary key value

state - Generally the "full entity state array", though could also be the natural id values array

Returns:

The local cached natural id values (could be different from given values).

manageSharedNaturalIdCrossReference

void manageSharedNaturalIdCrossReference(EntityPersister persister,
                                         Serializable id,
                                         Object[] state,

                                         CachedNaturalIdValueSource source)

Creates necessary shared (second level cache) cross-reference entries.

Parameters:

persister - The persister representing the entity type.

id - The primary key value

state - Generally the "full entity state array", though could also be the natural id values array

previousState - Generally the "full entity state array", though could also be the natural id values array. Specifically represents the previous values on update, and so is only used with CachedNaturalIdValueSource.UPDATE

source - Enumeration representing how these values are coming into cache.

removeSharedNaturalIdCrossReference

void removeSharedNaturalIdCrossReference(EntityPersister persister,
                                         Serializable id,
                                         Object[] naturalIdValues)

Cleans up local cross-reference entries.

Parameters:

persister - The persister representing the entity type.

id - The primary key value

naturalIdValues - The natural id values array

findCachedNaturalId

Object[] findCachedNaturalId(EntityPersister persister,
                             Serializable pk)

Given a persister and primary key, find the corresponding cross-referenced natural id values.

Parameters:

pk - The primary key value

Returns:

The cross-referenced natural-id values, or null

findCachedNaturalIdResolution

Serializable findCachedNaturalIdResolution(EntityPersister persister,
                                           Object[] naturalIdValues)

Given a persister and natural-id values, find the corresponding cross-referenced primary key. Will return INVALID_NATURAL_ID_REFERENCE if the given natural ids are known to be invalid.

Parameters:

persister - The persister representing the entity type.

naturalIdValues - The natural id value(s)

Returns:

The corresponding cross-referenced primary key, INVALID_NATURAL_ID_REFERENCE, or null.

getCachedPkResolutions

Collection<Serializable> getCachedPkResolutions(EntityPersister persister)

Find all the locally cached primary key cross-reference entries for the given persister.

Parameters:

persister - The persister representing the entity type.

Returns:

The primary keys

handleSynchronization

void handleSynchronization(EntityPersister persister,
                           Serializable pk,
                           Object entity)

Part of the "load synchronization process". Responsible for maintaining cross-reference entries when natural-id values were found to have changed. Also responsible for tracking the old values as no longer valid until the next flush because otherwise going to the database would just re-pull the old values as valid. In this last responsibility, cleanupFromSynchronizations() is the inverse process called after flush to clean up those entries.

Parameters:

persister - The persister representing the entity type.

pk - The primary key

entity - The entity instance

See Also:

cleanupFromSynchronizations()

cleanupFromSynchronizations

void cleanupFromSynchronizations()

The clean up process of handleSynchronization(org.hibernate.persister.entity.EntityPersister, java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Object). Responsible for cleaning up the tracking of old values as no longer valid.
