EntitySet

open class EntitySet: ObjectBase

Encapsulates the metadata of an OData entity set. Also used for OData isSingleton entities.

See also

DataService.createEntity, DataService.updateEntity, DataService.deleteEntity, DataService.getEntity, DataService.getEntityList.

  • Special value for table to indicate that this entity set should not be stored in the database.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public static let noTable: String = "none"

  • Can this model element be removed by DataService.refreshMetadata. Defaults to false. Set this to true to indicate that the application is coded to be able able to function correctly without this model element.

    See also

    isRemoved.

    Declaration

    Swift

    final public var canBeRemoved: Bool = false

  • Has this model element been removed by a successful call to DataService.refreshMetadata? If `isRemoved == true, that implies that the old metadata (before refreshMetadata was called) did include this model element, and that the new metadata (after refreshMetadata was called) does not include this model element.

    Declaration

    Swift

    final public var isRemoved: Bool = false

    Declaration

    Swift

    final public var localName: String = ""

    Declaration

    Swift

    final public var qualifiedName: String = ""

  • The name of this set as it should be referenced in resource paths (e.g. localName for OData V4, qualifiedName for OData V2).

    Declaration

    Swift

    final public var resourcePath: String = ""

  • The name of this set qualified by its owning DataSchema and EntityContainer names, e.g. MySchema.MyContainer/MyEntitySet.

    final public var targetPath: String = ""

  • true if this set was added since metadata was originally loaded.
