Extended Api
Available since ODB 1.9.
Some methods of ODB are grouped in a separate interface ODBExt instead of ODB to keep the main interface ODB simple.
The ODBExt interface currently provide the following methods:
/** * An interface to provider extended access to ODB. * @author osmadja * */ public interface ODBExt { /**Gets the external OID of an Object. The external OID contains the ID of the database + the oid of the object. * The External OID can be used to identify objects outside the ODB database as it should be unique across databases. * It can be used for example to implement a replication process. * * @param object * @return */ ExternalOID getObjectExternalOID(Object object); /** Get the Database ID * * @return */ DatabaseId getDatabaseId(); /** Convert an OID to External OID * * @param oid * @return The external OID */ ExternalOID convertToExternalOID(OID oid); /** Gets the current transaction Id * * @return The current transaction Id */ TransactionId getCurrentTransactionId(); }
To get access to the extended API, just call odb.ext(). Here is an example:
ODB odb = open("ext"); Function f = new Function("Test Function"); OID oid = odb.store(f); ExternalOID extOid = odb.ext().getObjectExternalOID(f);
