Uses of PropertiesProvider in org.sakaiproject.entitybroker.entityprovider.capabilities
 

Subinterfaces of PropertiesProvider in org.sakaiproject.entitybroker.entityprovider.capabilities
 interface PropertyProvideable
          Allows entities handled by the entity provider which implements this interface to have meta properties attached to them, these properties can be accessed via the EntityBroker, properties will be stored and retrieved via the methods which are implemented in this interface
For our usage, meta properties are extra or additional properties that are attached to an entity at runtime but are persisted so they can be retrieved later
Allows the entity provider to define and control the way properties are stored on its own entities, if you would prefer to use the internal storage and only have lightweight property storage needs then use Propertyable instead
NOTE: the validity of references and parameters is checked in the broker before the call goes to the provider
This is one of the capability extensions for the EntityProvider interface
