Module jakarta.data

Package jakarta.data.metamodel

Interface TemporalAttribute<T,V extends Temporal & Comparable<? extends Temporal>>

Type Parameters:

T - entity class of the static metamodel.

V - type of entity attribute.

All Superinterfaces:

Attribute<T>, BasicAttribute<T,V>, ComparableAttribute<T,V>, ComparableExpression<T,V>, Expression<T,V>, SortableAttribute<T>, TemporalExpression<T,V>

public interface TemporalAttribute<T,V extends Temporal & Comparable<? extends Temporal>>
extends ComparableAttribute<T,V>, TemporalExpression<T,V>

Represents a temporal entity attribute in the StaticMetamodel. Temporal entity attributes can be sorted on in query results and can be compared against values in query restrictions.

Jakarta Data supports the following entity attribute types for temporal data:

• Instant
• LocalDate
• LocalDateTime
• LocalTime
• Year

Where possible, TemporalAttribute is preferred over ComparableAttribute and SortableAttribute.

Since:

1.1
