InstanceView (jBPM :: Persistence API 7.69.0.Final API)

Type Parameters:

T - type of the instance this view corresponds to

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

CaseInstanceView, ProcessInstanceView, TaskInstanceView, TaskOperationView
```
public interface InstanceView<T>
extends Serializable
```
Generic view of an instance that is triggering an event. This view is to provide simple data access to event data, though it does provide handle (getSource) to get hold of "raw" instance if more information is required.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`void`	`copyFromSource()`	Triggers to copy data from source to view.
`String`	`getCompositeId()`	Returns the id of the view.
`T`	`getSource()`	Returns "raw" object instance for this view

- Method Detail
  - getSource
```
T getSource()
```
    Returns "raw" object instance for this view
    
    Returns:
    
    source of this view
  - copyFromSource
```
void copyFromSource()
```
    Triggers to copy data from source to view. Different implementations of the view might have different needs on when this would happen. PersistentEventManager will invoke it before delivering if it was not done before.
  - getCompositeId
```
String getCompositeId()
```
    Returns the id of the view. Might be used by implementors to determine if two views are representations of the same underlying object
