Interface ObjectPersister

All Known Implementing Classes:

HibernateKeyPersister, PropertySetItemPersister, ReflectiveObjectPersister

public interface ObjectPersister

Handles the persistence of objects imported from a backup. The DefaultObjectPersisterFactory is responsible for determining which persister should be used for which object. Most imported objects are handled by the ReflectiveObjectPersister.

Method Summary

java.util.List<TransientHibernateHandle>

persist(ImportProcessorContext context, ImportedObject object) Persist a given imported object.

Method Detail

persist

java.util.List<TransientHibernateHandle> persist(ImportProcessorContext context,
                                                 ImportedObject object)
                                                 throws java.lang.Exception

Persist a given imported object.

Parameters:

context - the context of the current import operation

object - the object to save.

Returns:

a list of handles of the objects that were saved. If IDs are being rewritten on import, this list should still contain the pre-rewriting ID as it appears in the backup file

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if something goes wrong. To avoid duplication of "wrap everything in one exception type" code in every persister, it is assumed wrapping happens at a higher level.
