I have an entity with non-mapped properties and a LifeCycleCallBback Listener.
In PrePersist/PreUpdate callback the non-mapped property is null but before the save was triggered this property was set.
I tried to annotate it with #Transient but it doesn't work as well. I tried to staticly give the property to the listnener but it does not support heavy loading.
public abstract class AbstractA {
private Object a;
public void setA(Object a){
this.a = a;
}
public Object getA(){
return a;
}
}
#Entity
#EntityListeners(MyListener.class)
public class B extends AbstractA {
//...
}
public class BService {
public B save(B b){
b.setA(object); // Object is not null and object.getA returns the good value
bRepository.saveAndFlush(b); // Triggers the prePersist Callback
}
}
public class MyListener {
#PrePersist
public void prePersist(AbstractA a){
a.getA(); // here a.a is null
}
}

I have got the following scenario in which I got four classes autogenerated (in a JAR):
Class A{
B bEl = ...;
}
Class B{
C cEl = ...;
}
Class C{
D dEl = ...;
}
Class E{
E eEl=...;
}
Setting up those objects it is quite painful and error prone. Therefore, I was wondering if there is a better way to automatically construct a builder. I am aware of Lombok but I cannot edit that code and I cannot add the #Builder annotation.
Any recommendation?
If you are not allowed to change existing classes you can extend them:
public class Existing {
String a;
String b;
public Test(String a, String b) {
this.a = a;
this.b = b;
}
public String getA() {
return a;
}
public void setA(String a) {
this.a = a;
}
public String getB() {
return b;
}
public void setB(String b) {
this.b = b;
}
}
public class ExistingBuilder extends Existing {
#Builder
public ExistingBuilder(String a, String b) {
super(a, b);
// in case super class doesn't have all arguments constructor just call setters
// setA(a);
// setB(b);
}
}
So as you can see it's doable, but super class should have getters/setters or all args constructor.
I am having two java class as below,
public class Class1{
private Object actionObject;
public Object getActionObject() {
return actionObject;
}
public void setActionObject(Object actionObject) {
this.actionObject = actionObject;
}
}
Second class
public class Class2 {
private Long id;
private int idver;
private int valueDate;
}
There are two statement as below,
Class1 deserializedValue = (Class1) event.getDeserializedValue();
Class2.class.isAssignableFrom(deserializedValue.getActionObject().getClass());
I want to mock the second statement
Class2.class.isAssignableFrom(deserializedValue.getActionObject().getClass());
how can i do this?
For testing purposes you can use a strategy pattern. You just need an interface or an abstract class with two different implementations. One of them is the mock implementation, something like this:
public interface EventStrategy {
// More methods...
boolean isAssignableFrom(final Object object);
}
public class MyEvent implements EventStrategy {
public boolean isAssignableFrom(final Object object) {
return Class2.class.isAssignableFrom(object.getClass());
}
}
public class MockEvent implements EventStrategy {
public boolean isAssignableFrom(final Object object) {
return true;
}
}
How to make delegate fields validation (using annotation) in wrapper? Is it possible to make annotation on getter instead on fields?
I tried to do something like this:
class A{
private Object obj;
public Object getObj(){
return obj;
}
public void setObj(Object obj){
this.obj = obj;
}
}
#Component
class Wrapper{
A a;
public Wrapper(A a){
this.a = a;
}
#NotNull
public getObj(){
a.getObj();
}
public setObj(Object obj){
a.setObj(obj);
}
}
#Entity
#Inheritance(strategy = InheritanceType.JOINED)
public class A{
private long id;
}
#Entity
public class B extends A{
private String bProperty;
}
#Entity
public class C extends A{
private String cProperty;
}
#Entity
public class Person{
#OneToMany
private Set<A> a;
}
when I use person.getVehicles
How can I know the A is B or C?
I'm using instanceof to check and cast it to get bProperty or cProperty.
Is there any other better way?
The only safe way is to use a polymorphic method. Even instanceof will not work because the instance might actually be a proxy, i.e. a subclass of A that is neither a B or a C, but delegates to a B or a C.
public class A{
private long id;
public abstract boolean isB();
public abstract boolean isC();
public abstract String getBProperty();
public abstract String getCProperty();
}
public class B extends A{
private String bProperty;
public boolean isB() {
return true;
}
public boolean isC() {
return false;
}
public String getBProperty() {
return bProperty;
}
public String getCProperty() {
throw new IllegalStateException("I'm not a C");
}
}
To be cleaner, try using the visitor pattern. I've written a blog post about it. It's in French, but it should be easily translatable.
I've got an entity which contains a collection of a different type of entities. What I want to do is have JAXB marshal only a select subset of the collection, based on some criteria.
#XmlRootElement
#Entity
public class A{
// other fields
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "x", fetch = FetchType.LAZY, cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
private Collection<B> bees;
#XmlJavaTypeAdapter(BFormatter.class)
public Collection<B> getBees() {
return bees;
}
public void setBees(Collection<B> bees) {
this.bees= bees;
}
}
#XmlRootElement
#Entity
public class B{
// fields
}
public class BFormatter extends XmlAdapter<Collection<B>, Collection<B>>{
#Override
public Collection<B> unmarshal(Collection<B> v) throws Exception {
return v;
}
#Override
public Collection<B> marshal(Collection<B> v) throws Exception {
Collection<B> subset;
// making subset
return subset;
}
}
This results in errors saying "java.util.Collection is an interface, and JAXB can't handle interfaces" and that "java.util.Collection does not have a no-arg default constructor."
What am I doing wrong, and is this even the right way to go about it?
The important thing is that you can't adapt a Collection (an interface) to something JAXB can handle, since it doesn't marshal an ArrayList or some other collection class. It is designed to marshal (bean) classes containing fields that are Lists or similar, which is meant to "disappear", remaining as the mere repetition of its elements. In other words, there's no XML element representing the ArrayList (or whatever) itself.
Therefore, the adapter has to modify the containing element. (See below for alternatives.) The following classes are working; just assemble a Root element and modify the AFormatter according to your design. (The comments refer to the example at
https://jaxb.java.net/tutorial/section_6_2_9-Type-Adapters-XmlJavaTypeAdapter.html#Type%20Adapters:%20XmlJavaTypeAdapter.)
(Most classes should be modified to avoid making fields public, but as it is, it is brief and working.)
#XmlRootElement
#XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
public class Root{ // Training
#XmlElement
private A a; // Brochure
public Root(){}
public A getA(){ return a; }
public void setA( A value ){ a = value; }
}
#XmlJavaTypeAdapter(AFormatter.class)
public class A{ // Brochure
private Collection<B> bees;
public A(){
bees = new ArrayList<>();
}
public Collection<B> getBees() {
if( bees == null ) bees = new ArrayList<>();
return bees;
}
}
#XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
public class B{ // Course
#XmlElement
private String id;
public B(){}
public String getId(){ return id; }
public void setId( String value ){ id = value; }
}
public class AFormatter extends XmlAdapter<BeeHive, A>{
#Override
public A unmarshal(BeeHive v) throws Exception {
A a = new A();
for( B b: v.beeList ){
a.getBees().add( b );
}
return a;
}
#Override
public BeeHive marshal(A v) throws Exception {
BeeHive beeHive = new BeeHive();
for( B b: v.getBees() ){
if( b.getId().startsWith("a") ) beeHive.beeList.add( b );
}
return beeHive;
}
}
public class BeeHive { // Courses
#XmlElement(name="b")
public List<B> beeList = new ArrayList<B>();
}
Alternatives: It would be quite simple if the regular getter of the B-list would return the ones that should be marshalled. If the application needs to see all, an alternative getter could be added. Or, the class could have a static flag that instructs the getter to return a List to be used for marshalling, or the regular list at other times.
