Method Detail

delete

public Persistable delete(Persistable obj)
                   throws WTException

Removes the given persistable object from the datastore. If the given Persistable object participates as either a role A or role B member, then referential integrity processing will occur as specified for that role. The delete method ensures that the operation is valid before removing the Persistable object from the datastore.

The target for this operations dispatched event is the specified Persistable object for a single object event listener and a WTCollection containing the specified Persistable object for a multiple object event listener. Note that the PRE_REMOVE event is not supported for a single object event listener.

The delete performs the following operations.

1. Dispatches a PersistenceManagerEvent.PRE_DELETE event.
2. Ensures that this Persistable object is persistent.
3. Ensures that attributes are valid (by invoking Persistable.checkAttributes()).
4. Uses Access Control to determine if the user is allowed to delete this business object.
5. Deletes associated BinaryLink objects that are owned by the role object that is being deleted.
6. Dispatches a PersistenceManagerEvent.CLEANUP_LINK event.
7. Dispatches a PersistenceManagerEvent.PRE_REMOVE event.
8. Deletes this Persistable object in the database, ensuring that the object has not gone stale (that is, someone else has already modified this object in the database).
9. Sets new values in the persistent information attributes to indicate that this object has been deleted.
10. Dispatches a PersistenceManagerEvent.REMOVE event.
11. If this object is of type BinaryLink, then any cascaded role objects are deleted.
12. Dispatches a PersistenceManagerEvent.POST_DELETE event.
13. Returns the Persistable object to the caller.

Before the commit of the transaction that this delete operation occurs in, the persistence service verifies that no BinaryLink objects exist that reference any of the removed objects.

Note that the PRE_REMOVE event is not supported for a single object event listener.

The delete performs the following operations.

1. Dispatches a PersistenceManagerEvent.PRE_DELETE event.
2. Ensures that this Persistable objects are persistent.
3. Ensures that attributes are valid (by invoking Persistable.checkAttributes() for each object).
4. Uses Access Control to determine if the user is allowed to delete the business objects.
5. Deletes associated BinaryLink objects that are owned by the role objects that are being deleted.
6. Dispatches a PersistenceManagerEvent.CLEANUP_LINK event.
7. Dispatches a PersistenceManagerEvent.PRE_REMOVE event.
8. Deletes the Persistable objects in the datastore, ensuring that the objects have not gone stale (that is, someone else has already modified this object in the datastore).
9. Sets new values in the persistent information attributes to indicate that this objects have been deleted.
10. Dispatches a PersistenceManagerEvent.REMOVE event.
11. For any objects that are of type BinaryLink, cascaded role objects are deleted.
12. Dispatches a PersistenceManagerEvent.POST_DELETE event.
13. Returns the collection of Persistable objects to the caller.

Before the commit of the transaction that this delete operation occurs in, the persistence service verifies that no BinaryLink objects exist that reference any of the removed objects.

                                           WTException

This method refreshes the given WTCollection and then checks whether the user has access control rights to modify it.

The method throws the ModificationNotAllowedException if the user is not allowed to modify the business object but is allowed to view it. Invoke the getNonModifiableObjects method on the ModificationNotAllowedException to get a refreshed copy of the WTColection if viewing it is desired.

The method throws the NotAuthorizedException if the user is not allowed to modify nor view the given object.

Supported API: false

Parameters:

a_objects - The objects to be modified in the datastore

Returns:

WTCollection

objects - The persistable objects to be saved
