Method Detail

getModuleConfiguration

ModuleConfiguration getModuleConfiguration()

This method returns the module configuration.

Returns:

isResponsibleFor

boolean isResponsibleFor(Class businessObjectClass)

This method determines whether this service is responsible for the business object class passed in, or not.

Parameters:

businessObjectClass -

Returns:

isResponsibleForJob

boolean isResponsibleForJob(String jobName)

This method determines whether this service is responsible for the given jobname, or not.

Parameters:

jobName -

Returns:

listPrimaryKeyFieldNames

List listPrimaryKeyFieldNames(Class businessObjectInterfaceClass)

This method returns the list of primary keys for the EBO.

Parameters:

businessObjectInterfaceClass -

Returns:

listAlternatePrimaryKeyFieldNames

List<List<String>> listAlternatePrimaryKeyFieldNames(Class businessObjectInterfaceClass)

This method returns a list of alternate primary keys. This is used when the "real" primary key is not the only one that can be used. For example, documentType has "documentTypeId" as its primary key, but the "name" could also be used. A List of Lists is returned because because there can be component keys: Ex: {name, date} {department, personId}

Parameters:

businessObjectInterfaceClass -

Returns:

List of List of Strings.

getExternalizableBusinessObjectDictionaryEntry

BusinessObjectEntry getExternalizableBusinessObjectDictionaryEntry(Class businessObjectInterfaceClass)

This method gets the business object dictionary entry for the passed in externalizable business object class.

Parameters:

businessObjectInterfaceClass -

Returns:

getExternalizableBusinessObject

<T extends ExternalizableBusinessObject> T getExternalizableBusinessObject(Class<T> businessObjectClass,

This method gets the externalizable business object, given its type and a map of primary keys and values

Parameters:

businessObjectClass -

fieldValues -

Returns:

getExternalizableBusinessObjectsList

This method gets the list of externalizable business objects, given its type and a map of primary keys and values.

Parameters:

businessObjectClass -
