Interface View

All Superinterfaces:

KeyValuePair<String,String>, Persistent, Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

ProcessInstanceView

public interface View
extends Persistent

Objects implementing this interface provide a different perspective ("view") for a Persistent instance (the base object).

Usually just a subset of the fields / columns of the base object is accessible. So a view object provides a projection of the base object. A specific view class is always tied to a specific Persistent class.

@enterprise View-Forms do implement this interface.
