  extended bywt.fc.ObjectReference

All Implemented Interfaces:
Evolvable, Externalizable, NetFactor, ObjectMappable, Serializable, WTReference

public final class ViewReference
extends CachedObjectReference
implements Externalizable

The ViewReference is an ObjectReference particular to Views. When getting the view object from the reference, it uses the ViewService rather than hitting the database directly.

Use the newViewReference static factory method(s), not the ViewReference constructor, to construct instances of this class. Instances must be constructed using the static factory(s), in order to ensure proper initialization of the instance.



Supported API: true

Extendable: false
