Interface StorageEntity

All Known Implementing Classes:
StorageEntity.Default
public interface StorageEntity
Public API level type of a storage entity. Used for custom evaluators, filters, etc. Does intentionally not provide any means to load/access the entity's data or change any if its state. This is purely a querying interface, not a means to manipulate data via bypassing normal channels to do so.

    Modifier and Type Method Description
    long cachedDataLength()
    The length this entity occupies in the cache.
    long dataLength()
    the entity's data length, meaning the pure content length without any header or meta data.

  • Method Details

    • dataLength

      long dataLength()
      the entity's data length, meaning the pure content length without any header or meta data.

    • typeId

      long typeId()
      The entity's type id.

    • objectId

      long objectId()
      The entity's biunique identifying id number.

    • hasReferences

      boolean hasReferences()
      The information if this entity's type has reference fields (regardless of a particular entity's actual data).

    • cachedDataLength

      long cachedDataLength()
      The length this entity occupies in the cache. This might be vary, even for fixed length typed, from the values returned by dataLength() as only parts of an entity (e.g. only references) might be loaded into cache and because the cache might hold the header/meta data of an entity as well.

    • lastTouched

      long lastTouched()
      The approximate system time that this particular entity has been last touched. The returned value is compatible to the value returned by System.currentTimeMillis().
