Method Detail

getRepositoryBaseClass

Class<?> getRepositoryBaseClass()

Returns the base class to be used to create the proxy backing instance.

Returns:

hasCustomMethod

boolean hasCustomMethod()

Returns if the configured repository interface has custom methods, that might have to be delegated to a custom implementation. This is used to verify repository configuration.

Returns:

isCustomMethod

boolean isCustomMethod(Method method)

Returns whether the given method is a custom repository method.

Parameters:

method -

Returns:

isQueryMethod

boolean isQueryMethod(Method method)

Returns whether the given method is a query method.

Parameters:

method -

Returns:

isBaseClassMethod

boolean isBaseClassMethod(Method method)

Returns whether the given method is logically a base class method. This also includes methods (re)declared in the repository interface that match the signatures of the base implementation.

Parameters:

method - must not be null.

Returns:

getQueryMethods

Iterable<Method> getQueryMethods()

Returns all methods considered to be query methods.

Returns:

getTargetClassMethod

Method getTargetClassMethod(Method method)

Returns the target class method that is backing the given method. This can be necessary if a repository interface redeclares a method of the core repository interface (e.g. for transaction behaviour customization). Returns the method itself if the target class does not implement the given method.

Parameters:

method -

Returns:
