Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
CREATE Existing indexes will not be altered, missing indexes will be created along with their mappings.
MERGE Upon session factory initialization, index mappings will be merged with existing ones, causing an exception if a mapping to be merged is not compatible with the existing one.
NONE Indexes will never be created or deleted.
RECREATE Indexes - and all their contents - will be deleted and newly created (along with their mappings) upon session factory initialization.
RECREATE_DELETE The same as RECREATE, but indexes - and all their contents - will be deleted upon session factory shut-down as well.
VALIDATE Upon session factory initialization, existing index mappings will be checked by Hibernate Search, causing an exception if a required mapping does not exist or exists but differs in a non-compatible way (more strict type constraints, for instance).

Modifier and Type	Method and Description

Enum Constant Detail

NONE

public static final IndexSchemaManagementStrategy NONE

Indexes will never be created or deleted. Hibernate Search will only check that the index actually exists. The index schema (mapping) is not managed by Hibernate Search and is not checked.

VALIDATE

public static final IndexSchemaManagementStrategy VALIDATE

Upon session factory initialization, existing index mappings will be checked by Hibernate Search, causing an exception if a required mapping does not exist or exists but differs in a non-compatible way (more strict type constraints, for instance). This strategy will not bring any change to the mappings, nor create or delete any index.

MERGE

public static final IndexSchemaManagementStrategy MERGE

Upon session factory initialization, index mappings will be merged with existing ones, causing an exception if a mapping to be merged is not compatible with the existing one.

Missing indexes will be created along with their mappings. Missing mappings on existing indexes will be created.

CREATE

public static final IndexSchemaManagementStrategy CREATE

Existing indexes will not be altered, missing indexes will be created along with their mappings.

RECREATE

public static final IndexSchemaManagementStrategy RECREATE

Indexes - and all their contents - will be deleted and newly created (along with their mappings) upon session factory initialization.

Note that whenever a search factory is altered after initialization (i.e. new entities are mapped), the index will not be deleted again: new mappings will simply be added to the index.

RECREATE_DELETE

public static final IndexSchemaManagementStrategy RECREATE_DELETE

The same as RECREATE, but indexes - and all their contents - will be deleted upon session factory shut-down as well.

Method Detail

values

public static IndexSchemaManagementStrategy[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (IndexSchemaManagementStrategy c : IndexSchemaManagementStrategy.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static IndexSchemaManagementStrategy valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
