Interface DFDataTree

All Superinterfaces:

DFItem, DFScriptParent, PropertiesEditingConfigurable

public interface DFDataTree
extends DFScriptParent

Interface representing data tree. Data tree is a basic tree style sub-graph of the whole schema's entity-relationships generic graph. DataTree is oriented graph and doesn't allow to add cycles. DataTree always contains root vertex and zero or more edges going to next vertexes. Each DFDataTree.Vertex represents one DFEntity and each DFDataTree.Edge represents some DFRelationship.Direction. It is possible to look at edges as a relation between master and detail entity (table).

Method Detail

getRootVertex

DFDataTree.Vertex getRootVertex()

Returns:

The root vertex of this DFDataTree. Never return null as the root vertex is always defined.

getViews

DFContainer<DFView> getViews()

Returns:

The container of DFViews which are based on this datatree. The Vertex object is immutable, it cannot be changed once it's created. Only new edges can be added.

getQueries

DFContainer<DFQuery> getQueries()

Returns:

The container of persistent DFQuerys.

getHandle

DFItem.Handle<DFDataTree> getHandle()

Description copied from interface: DFItem

Returns a handle to the Item. The handle uniquely identifies the Item, even though the schema data may be copied or otherwise replicated. Use the Handle instead of DFItem.getId() when registering an Item in collections that extend beyond the DFItem's parent Schema.

Specified by:

getHandle in interface DFItem

Returns:

The handle to the DFItem.

getDefaultResultSet

DFResultSet getDefaultResultSet(boolean showAll,
                                com.im.commons.progress.DFEnvironmentRO env)

Get a default DFResultSet for the given DFDataTree. This method just delegates the call to DFSchemaDataProvider.getDefaultResultSet(DFDataTree, boolean, DFEnvironmentRO).

Parameters:

showAll - If the result set is not initialized yet then: loads all rows if true otherwise default result set is returned empty. If result set was already created before then this param is ignored

env - The environment

Returns:

The instance of result set for this datatree

getSchema

DFSchema getSchema()

Get owner of this datatree.

Specified by:

getSchema in interface DFScriptParent

Returns:

schema which owns this datatree
