Class SequenceStyleGenerator

java.lang.Object

org.hibernate.id.enhanced.SequenceStyleGenerator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Configurable, IdentifierGenerator, PersistentIdentifierGenerator

public class SequenceStyleGenerator
extends java.lang.Object
implements PersistentIdentifierGenerator, Configurable

Generates identifier values based on an sequence-style database structure. Variations range from actually using a sequence to using a table to mimic a sequence. These variations are encapsulated by the DatabaseStructure interface internally.

General configuration parameters:

NAME	DEFAULT	DESCRIPTION
SEQUENCE_PARAM	DEF_SEQUENCE_NAME	The name of the sequence/table to use to store/retrieve values
INITIAL_PARAM	DEFAULT_INITIAL_VALUE	The initial value to be stored for the given segment; the effect in terms of storage varies based on Optimizer and DatabaseStructure
INCREMENT_PARAM	DEFAULT_INCREMENT_SIZE	The increment size for the underlying segment; the effect in terms of storage varies based on Optimizer and DatabaseStructure
OPT_PARAM	depends on defined increment size	Allows explicit definition of which optimization strategy to use
FORCE_TBL_PARAM	false	Allows explicit definition of which optimization strategy to use

Configuration parameters used specifically when the underlying structure is a table:

NAME	DEFAULT	DESCRIPTION
VALUE_COLUMN_PARAM	DEF_VALUE_COLUMN	The name of column which holds the sequence value for the given segment

configure

public void configure(Type type,
             java.util.Properties params,
             Dialect dialect)
               throws MappingException

Configure this instance, given the value of parameters specified by the user as <param> elements. This method is called just once, following instantiation.

Specified by:

configure in interface Configurable

params - param values, keyed by parameter name

Throws:

MappingException

determineSequenceName

protected java.lang.String determineSequenceName(java.util.Properties params,
                                     Dialect dialect)

Determine the name of the sequence (or table if this resolves to a physical table) to use.

Called during configuration.

Parameters:

params - The params supplied in the generator config (plus some standard useful extras).

dialect - The dialect in effect

Returns:

The sequence name

determineValueColumnName

protected java.lang.String determineValueColumnName(java.util.Properties params,
                                        Dialect dialect)

Determine the name of the column used to store the generator value in the db.

Called during configuration when resolving to a physical table.

Parameters:

params - The params supplied in the generator config (plus some standard useful extras).

dialect - The dialect in effect.

Returns:

The value column name

determineInitialValue

protected int determineInitialValue(java.util.Properties params)

Determine the initial sequence value to use. This value is used when initializing the database structure (i.e. sequence/table).

Called during configuration.

Parameters:

params - The params supplied in the generator config (plus some standard useful extras).

Returns:

The initial value

determineIncrementSize

protected int determineIncrementSize(java.util.Properties params)

Determine the increment size to be applied. The exact implications of this value depends on the optimizer being used.

Called during configuration.

Returns:

The increment size

determineOptimizationStrategy

protected java.lang.String determineOptimizationStrategy(java.util.Properties params,
