javax.jdo.spi.StateManager - JDO interface

javax.jdo.spi
Interface StateManager

This interface is the point of contact between managed instances of PersistenceCapable classes and the JDO implementation. It contains the methods used by PersistenceCapable instances to delegate behavior to the JDO implementation.

Each managed PersistenceCapable instance contains a reference to a StateManager. A StateManager might manage one or multiple instances of PersistenceCapable instances, at the choice of the implementation.
