Class EntityTypeImpl<X>

java.lang.Object

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metamodel.TypeImpl<X>

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metamodel.ManagedTypeImpl<X>

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metamodel.IdentifiableTypeImpl<X>

org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metamodel.EntityTypeImpl<X>

Type Parameters:

X - The represented entity type.

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class EntityTypeImpl<X>
extends IdentifiableTypeImpl<X>

Purpose: Provides the implementation for the EntityType interface of the JPA 2.0 Metamodel API (part of the JSR-317 EJB 3.1 Criteria API)
EntityTypeImpl implements the IdentifiableType interface via EntityType

Description: Instances of the type EntityType represent entity types.

Since:

EclipseLink 1.2 - JPA 2.0
