Field Detail

TYPE

public static final ElementType TYPE

Deprecated.

The BSON type for a Object Id.

Constructor Detail

DBPointerElement

public DBPointerElement(String name,
                String dbName,
                String collectionName,
                ObjectId id)

Deprecated.

Constructs a new DBPointerElement.

Parameters:

name - The name for the BSON Object Id.

dbName - The database name.

collectionName - The name of the collection.

id - The object id.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - If the name, dbName, collectionName, or id is null.

Method Detail

accept

public void accept(Visitor visitor)

Deprecated.

Accepts the visitor and calls the Visitor.visitDBPointer(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, com.allanbank.mongodb.bson.element.ObjectId) method.

Parameters:

visitor - The visitor for the element.

See Also:

Element.accept(Visitor)

equals

public boolean equals(Object object)

Deprecated.

Determines if the passed object is of this same type as this object and if so that its fields are equal.

Overrides:

equals in class AbstractElement

Parameters:

object - The object to compare to.

See Also:

Object.equals(java.lang.Object)

getCollectionName

public String getCollectionName()

Deprecated.

Returns the collectionName value.

Returns:

The collectionName value.

getDatabaseName

public String getDatabaseName()

Deprecated.

Returns the databaseName value.

Returns:

The databaseName value.

getId

public ObjectId getId()

Deprecated.

Returns the id value.

Returns:

The id value.

getType

public ElementType getType()

Deprecated.

Returns the type for the BSON type.

Returns:

The type for the BSON type.

getValueAsObject

public DocumentReference getValueAsObject()

Deprecated.

Returns the value for BSON element as a Java Object type.

Automatic conversion from the Object-ified value to an element is provided via the DocumentBuilder.add(String, Object) method. Not all element types will be successfully converted to the same element duing a Element-->Object value-->Element conversion. This cases are noted in the appropriate sub-type's JavaDoc.

Sub-types will also overload this method with the appropriate type returned. e.g., The StringElement.getValueAsObject() method signature returns a String.

Returns a DocumentReference.

Note: This value will not be recreated is a Object-->Element conversion. A more generic sub-document following the DBRef convention is created instead.

Returns:

The value for BSON element as a Java Object type.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Deprecated.

Computes a reasonable hash code.

Overrides:

hashCode in class AbstractElement

Returns:

The hash code value.

withName

public DBPointerElement withName(String name)

Deprecated.

Creates a new element with the same type and value as this element but with the specified name. This is useful when creating a query across a set of collections where the filed name changes in the collections but the values must be identical.

Returns a new DBPointerElement.

Parameters:

name - The new name for the element.

Returns:

The created element.
