Generated Interfaces
Applies to ✅ Open Source Edition ✅ Express Edition ✅ Professional Edition ✅ Enterprise Edition
Note, there are numerous problems related to generated interfaces as can be seen in #10509. A future version of jOOQ might remove support for this functionality.
Every table, view, udt in your database will generate an interface that looks like this:
public interface IBook extends java.io.Serializable { // Every column generates a getter and a setter public void setId(Integer value); public Integer getId(); // [...] }
The purpose of these interfaces is to be able to abstract over jOOQ generated records and POJOs.
Flags controlling interface generation
<configuration> <generator> <generate> <!-- Turn on the generation of interfaces --> <interfaces>true</interfaces> <!-- Generated interfaces will not expose mutable components of their implementations, such as setters --> <immutableInterfaces>true</immutableInterfaces> </generate> </generator> </configuration>
See the configuration XSD, standalone code generation, and maven code generation for more details.
new org.jooq.util.jaxb.Configuration() .withGenerator( new Generate() // Turn on the generation of interfaces .withInterfaces(true) // Generated interfaces will not expose mutable components of their implementations, such as setters .withImmutableInterfaces(true) )
See the configuration XSD and programmatic code generation for more details.
