getConstructor

protected final java.lang.reflect.Constructor<? extends S> getConstructor(DataObjectFactory fac)

makeConstructor

protected java.lang.reflect.Constructor<? extends S> makeConstructor(DataObjectFactory fac)

get the constructor for the target class. By default we look for the default signatures used by the makeBDO method but we can override this method provided the makeBDO method is also overridden.

Parameters:

fac - DataObjectFactory

Returns:

Constructor

makeBDO

public S makeBDO(DataObjectFactory<? super S> fac,
                 Repository.Record r)

Construct an object using the Constructor returned by makeConstructor

Parameters:

fac -

r -

Returns:

new object

getTargetClass

public java.lang.Class<? extends S> getTargetClass()
