Package org.apache.cayenne.access.types

Defines an extendable mechanism to map Java types to JDBC types.

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
ExtendedType<T>	Defines methods to read Java objects from JDBC ResultSets and write as parameters of PreparedStatements.
ExtendedTypeFactory	ExtendedType factory interface.
ValueObjectType<V,T>	Descriptor and serialization helper for custom value objects that can be safely stored in the DB.
ValueObjectTypeRegistry	Registry of user-defined descriptors of custom value objects' classes.

Class Summary

Class	Description
BigDecimalType
BigIntegerValueType
BooleanType	Handles java.lang.Boolean mapping.
ByteArrayType	Handles byte[], mapping it as either of JDBC types - BLOB or (VAR)BINARY.
ByteType	Handles java.lang.Byte type mapping.
CalendarType<T extends Calendar>	ExtendedType that handles Calendar fields.
CharacterValueType	This is char and Character type mapped to zero or one char String.
CharType	Handles java.lang.String, mapping it as either of JDBC types - CLOB or (VAR)CHAR.
DateType
DefaultValueObjectTypeRegistry	Default implementation of ValueObjectTypeRegistry
DoubleType
EnumType<T extends Enum<T>>	An ExtendedType that handles an enum class.
EnumTypeFactory	ExtendedTypeFactory for handling Enum types.
ExtendedEnumType<T extends Enum<T>>	An ExtendedType that handles a Java Enum based upon the Cayenne ExtendedEnumeration interface.
ExtendedTypeMap	Stores ExtendedTypes, implementing an algorithm to determine the right type for a given Java class.
FloatType
IntegerType
LocalDateTimeValueType
LocalDateValueType
LocalTimeValueType
LongType
ObjectType	This is a default ExtendedType that relies on JDBC driver to determine the result type.
ShortType	Handles java.lang.Short type mapping.
TimestampType
TimeType
UtilDateType	Maps java.util.Date to any of the three database date/time types: TIME, DATE, TIMESTAMP.
UUIDValueType
ValueObjectTypeFactory
VoidType	A noop type that is sometimes useful to suppress extended types operations.
