Interface PlasmaDataGraph

All Superinterfaces:

DataGraph, java.io.Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

CoreDataGraph

public interface PlasmaDataGraph
extends DataGraph

Implementation specific extensions to SDO data graph API.

A data graph is used to package a graph of data objects along with their metadata, that is, data describing the data. A data graph also contains a change summary which is used to record changes made to the objects in the graph.

Method Summary

void	accept(PlasmaDataGraphEventVisitor visitor) Begin breadth-first traversal of this DataGraph, the given visitor receiving various events for each graph node traversed.
void	accept(PlasmaDataGraphVisitor visitor) Begin breadth-first traversal of this DataGraph, the given visitor receiving "visit" events for each graph node traversed.
void	acceptDepthFirst(PlasmaDataGraphVisitor visitor) Begin depth-first traversal of this DataGraph, the given visitor receiving "visit" events for each graph node traversed.
java.lang.String	dump()
java.lang.String	dumpDepthFirst()
java.lang.Object	getId() Returns an object to be used and managed by client Data Access Services as an identifier for a Data Graph.
java.lang.String	getPath(DataObject dataObject) Calculates and returns the path to the given Data Object relative to the Data Graph root.
java.util.UUID	getUUID() Returns the UUID for this data graph, which is the same UUID used for the root Data Object.
java.lang.String	getUUIDAsString() Returns the UUID for this data graph, which is the same UUID used for the root Data Object, as a character string.
DataObject	removeRootObject() Detaches and returns the root data object of this data graph.
void	setId(java.lang.Object id) Sets an object to be used and managed by client Data Access Services as an identifier for a Data Graph.
