Method Details

read
A general, unspecific read, e.g. to initially read data in general from the attached data source.Examples:
- simply ALL data from a plain file.
 - only root nodes (and all recursively referenced nodes) of a graph-based database.
 - nothing at all if not applicable, resulting in 
nullbeing returned. 
- Returns:
 - data segments containing general data if applicable, otherwise 
null. - Throws:
 PersistenceExceptionTransfer
 - 
readByObjectIds
XGettingCollection<? extends D> readByObjectIds(PersistenceIdSet[] oids) throws PersistenceExceptionTransfer- Throws:
 PersistenceExceptionTransfer
 - 
prepareSource
default void prepareSource()Prepare to read from this source. E.g. open a defined file. -
