Enum SessionMode

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<SessionMode>

org.jsimpledb.SessionMode

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<SessionMode>

public enum SessionMode
extends Enum<SessionMode>

Session modes.

The three SessionMode values correspond to the three layers of abstraction in JSimpleDB. In order from bottom to top these are:

• The key/value database layer, providing KVDatabase and KVTransaction and represented by KEY_VALUE
• The core API database layer, providing Database and Transaction and represented by CORE_API
• The JSimpleDB (or "Java") layer, providing JSimpleDB and JTransaction and represented by JSIMPLEDB

KEY_VALUE Key/value database mode.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
boolean	hasCoreAPI() Determine whether the core API (e.g., Transaction) is available in this mode.
boolean	hasJSimpleDB() Determine whether the JSimpleDB (or "Java") API (e.g., JTransaction) is available in this mode.
static SessionMode	valueOf(String name) Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
static SessionMode[]	values() Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Enum Constant Detail

KEY_VALUE

public static final SessionMode KEY_VALUE

Key/value database mode.

This is the lowest level CLI mode, where only the raw byte[] key/value store is available. This mode provides a KVTransaction, but no Transaction or JTransaction.

org.jsimpledb.kv

CORE_API

public static final SessionMode CORE_API

Core API mode.

Supports access to low level schema information, core API "objects" and fields, but no Java-specific operations. This mode provides a KVTransaction and Transaction, but no JTransaction.

Schema information may be provided either by a schema XML file or by @JSimpleClass-annotated Java model classes; however, in the latter case these classes will be otherwise ignored.

In this mode, database objects are represented by ObjId's and enum values by EnumValue's.

JSIMPLEDB

public static final SessionMode JSIMPLEDB

JSimpleDB (or "Java") mode.

Provides i.e., when the there are no @JSimpleClass-annotated Java model classes defined and the core Database API is used.

In this mode, database objects are represented by Java model class instances and enum values by corresponding Java model Enum class instances.

Method Detail

values

public static SessionMode[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (SessionMode c : SessionMode.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static SessionMode valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

hasJSimpleDB

public boolean hasJSimpleDB()

Determine whether the JSimpleDB (or "Java") API (e.g., JTransaction) is available in this mode.

Returns:

true if the JSimpleDB "Java" API is available

hasCoreAPI

public boolean hasCoreAPI()

Determine whether the core API (e.g., Transaction) is available in this mode.

Returns:

true if the core API is available
