All Implemented Interfaces:

NSDisposable, NSLocking

public class EOObjectStoreCoordinator
extends EOObjectStore

EOObjectStoreCoordinator provides the abstraction of a single object store by coordinating one or more EOCooperatingObjectStores. For the basic object store methods, such as objectsWithFetchSpecification(EOFetchSpecification, EOEditingContext), the coordinator forwards the message to the appropriate coorperating object store based on entity name. For saveChangesInEditingContext(EOEditingContext), the coordinator guides its cooperating object stores through a multi-pass save protocol in which each cooperating object store saves its own changes and forwards other changes on to other object stores. For example, if in its recordChangesInEditingContext method, one store notices the removal of an object from an "owning" relationship, but that object comes from another store, it should inform the other store by passing the coordinator a forwardUpdateForObject(EOEnterpriseObject, NSDictionary) message.

forwardUpdateForObject

public void forwardUpdateForObject(EOEnterpriseObject object,
                                   NSDictionary changes)

Tells the receiver to forward a message from an EOCooperatingObjectStore to another store, informing it that changes need to be made to object. For example, inserting an object in a relationship property of one EOCooperatingObjectStore might require changing a foreign key property in an object owned by another EOCooperatingObjectStore. This method first locates the EOCooperatingObjectStore that's responsible for applying changes, and then it sends the store the message recordUpdateForObject.

Parameters:

object - EOEnterpriseObject that needs updating

changes - a dictionary of changes for the appropriate EOCooperatingObjectStore to make in object

valuesForKeys

public NSDictionary valuesForKeys(NSArray keys,
                                  EOEnterpriseObject object)

Communicates with the appropriate EOCooperatingObjectStore to get the values identified by keys for object, so that it can then forward them on to another EOCooperatingObjectStore. EOCooperatingObjectStores can hold values for an object that augment the properties in the object. For instance, an EODatabaseContext (EOAccess) stores foreign key information for the objects it owns. These foreign keys may well not be defined as properties of the object. Other EODatabaseContexts can find out the object's foreign keys by sending the EODatabaseContext that owns the object a valuesForKeys message (through the coordinator).

Parameters:

keys - NSArray of keys to return values for

object - the EOEnterpriseObject to return values for

Returns:

a dictionary of values for keys on object

saveChangesInEditingContext

public void saveChangesInEditingContext(EOEditingContext context)

Overrides the EOObjectStore implementation to save the changes made in context. This message is sent by an EOEditingContext to an EOObjectStoreCoordinator to commit changes. When an EOObjectStoreCoordinator receives this message, it guides its EOCooperatingObjectStores through a multi-pass save protocol in which each EOCooperatingObjectStore saves its own changes and forwards remaining changes to other EOCooperatingObjectStores. When this method is invoked, the following sequence of events occurs:

1. The receiver sends each of its EOCooperatingObjectStores the message prepareForSaveWithCoordinator, which informs them that a multi-pass save operation is beginning. When the EOCooperatingObjectStore is an EODatabaseContext (EOAccess), it takes this opportunity to generate primary keys for any new objects in the EOEditingContext.
2. The receiver sends each of its EOCooperatingObjectStores the message recordChangesInEditingContext, which prompts them to examine the changed objects in the editing context, record operations that need to be performed, and notify the receiver of any changes that need to be forwarded to other stores. For example, if in its recordChangesInEditingContext method one EOCooperatingObjectStore notices the removal of an object from an owning relationship but that object belongs to another EOCooperatingObjectStore, it informs the other store by sending the coordinator a forwardUpdateForObject message.
3. The receiver sends each of its EOCooperatingObjectStores the message ownsGlobalID. This tells the stores to transmit their changes to their underlying databases. When the EOCooperatingObjectStore is an EODatabaseContext, it responds to this message by taking the EODatabaseOperations (EOAccess) that were constructed in the previous step, constructing EOAdaptorOperations (EOAccess) from them, and giving the EOAdaptorOperations to an available EOAdaptorChannel (EOAccess) for execution.
4. If ownsGlobalID fails for any of the EOCooperatingObjectStores, all stores are sent the message rollbackChanges.
5. If ownsGlobalID succeeds for all EOCooperatingObjectStores, the receiver sends them the message commitChanges, which has the effect of telling the adaptor to commit the changes.
6. If commitChanges fails for a particular EOCooperatingObjectStore, that store and all subsequent ones are sent the message rollbackChanges. However, the stores that have already committed their changes do not roll back. In other words, the coordinator doesn't perform the two-phase commit protocol necessary to guarantee consistent distributed update.

This method raises an exception if an error occurs.

Specified by:

saveChangesInEditingContext in class EOObjectStore

Parameters:

context - EOEditingContext that will have its object graph changes saved

lock

public void lock()

This method is used to protect access to the receiver from concurrent operations by multiple threads. EOEditingContexts will indirectly lock their EOObjectStoreCoordinators when necessary. Locking an EOObjectStoreCoordinator will cause the coordinator to lock each registered EOCooperatingObjectStore managed by that coordinator. Applications which make direct use of an EOObjectStoreCoordinator should lock and unlock it as appropriate. Do not confuse this with any methods which work with the database locking mechanism.

lock in interface NSLocking

lock in class EOObjectStore

EOObjectStoreCoordinator.unlock(), EOObjectStore.lock()

unlock

public void unlock()

This method is used to protect access to the receiver from concurrent operations by multiple threads. EOEditingContexts will indirectly unlock their EOObjectStoreCoordinators when necessary. Unlocking an EOObjectStoreCoordinator will cause the coordinator to unlock each registered EOCooperatingObjectStore managed by that coordinator. Applications which make direct use of an EOObjectStoreCoordinator should lock and unlock it as appropriate. Do not confuse this with any methods which work with the database locking mechanism.
