Hibernate ORM - hibernate-core 6.4.4.Final · org.hibernate.collection.spi

This package defines the SPI of a framework for lazy-initializing and state-tracking collection wrappers.

The interface org.hibernate.collection.spi.PersistentCollection and all its implementations belong to an SPI. They are not part of the public API of Hibernate, and are not meant to be used directly by typical programs which use Hibernate for persistence.

Interface Summary

Modifier and Type	Interface and Description
public interface	BagSemantics<BE extends Collection<E>, E>
public interface	CollectionInitializerProducer Functional contract to create a `CollectionInitializer`.
public interface	CollectionSemantics< the type of the collection CE, the collection element or map key type E> Each instance of this interface describes the semantics of some sort of persistent collection so that Hibernate understands how to manage the lifecycle of instances of that sort of collection.
public interface	CollectionSemanticsResolver Resolve the collection semantics for the given mapped collection.
public interface	LazyInitializable The most general abstraction over collections which may be fetched lazily.
public interface	MapSemantics<MKV extends Map<K, V>, K, V> Extension of `CollectionSemantics` for Maps
public interface	PersistentCollection< the collection element type, or map value type E> Persistent collections are treated as value objects by Hibernate.

public class	PersistentBag<E> An unordered, un-keyed collection that can contain the same element multiple times.
public class	PersistentIdentifierBag<E> An "identifier bag" implements "bag" semantics more efficiently than a regular bag by adding a synthetic identifier column to the table.
