Class ChangeRecord


  • @ThreadSafety(level=COMPLETELY_THREADSAFE)
    public final class ChangeRecord
    extends java.lang.Object
    This class represents the basis for a single change record. This is effectively a hint that a change happened, and some metadata about the change. A SyncSource implementation should create instances of this class based on changes detected in the source endpoint (either from a changelog table or some other change tracking mechanism). The resync process will also use instances of this class to identify source entries, which can then be fetched using the fetchEntry() method on the SyncSource extension.

    • Method Detail

      • getChangeNumber

        public long getChangeNumber()
        Get the change number that identifies this particular change. If a change number is not used by the source for change detection, this method will return a monotonically increasing sequence number for this change record, so that you can still identify the order in which changes were detected.
        Returns:
        the changeNumber
      • getChangeType

        public ChangeType getChangeType()
        Get the change type (ADD/MODIFY/MOD-DN/DELETE). For resync operations, this will be null.
        Returns:
        the changeType
      • getIdentifiableInfo

        public DN getIdentifiableInfo()
        Get a DN that identifies the entry or record that changed (for example "accountID=123"). If multiple attributes are part of the identifier, they will be represented as different RDN components of the DN (for example "accountID=123,groupID=5").
        Returns:
        an identifier DN for the entry that changed
      • getIdentifiableInfoAfterChange

        public DN getIdentifiableInfoAfterChange()
        Get a DN that identifies the entry or record after the change is complete. This DN will only differ from the result of getIdentifiableInfo() if the change type was a Modify DN.
        Returns:
        the DN for the entry after the change.
      • getChangedAttributes

        public java.lang.String[] getChangedAttributes()
        Get the set of changed attributes for this change.
        Returns:
        an array of attribute names that were modified as part of the change
      • getModifier

        public java.lang.String getModifier()
        Get the user account name that made the change.
        Returns:
        the source user account
      • getChangeTime

        public long getChangeTime()
        Get the time at which the change occurred.
        Returns:
        the change time (in milliseconds since January 1, 1970 00:00:00.000 GMT)
      • getFullEntry

        public Entry getFullEntry()
        Get the full source entry (if it was set on this ChangeRecord when it was created). Typically this will be null, but some extensions may opt to set the entry when the ChangeRecord is constructed in order to skip the fetchEntry() phase of processing.
        Returns:
        the full source entry, or null if it has not been set
      • getProperty

        public java.lang.Object getProperty​(java.lang.Object key)
        Get the property value (if one exists) for the given key.
        Parameters:
        key - the key for a given property to return
        Returns:
        the property value, or null if the key is null
      • setCompletionStatus

        @InternalUseOnly
        public void setCompletionStatus​(CompletionStatus status)
        This method is used by the Sync Pipe to indicate if the completion status of a synchronization operation. This is for internal use only and should not be called by extension code.
        Parameters:
        status - the completion status for this ChangeRecord
      • getCompletionStatus

        public CompletionStatus getCompletionStatus()
        Gets the completion status for this change. This will be null if the change has not finished processing yet.
        Returns:
        the CompletionStatus indicating whether this change completed successfully or else a reason why it failed
      • toString

        public java.lang.String toString()
        Overrides:
        toString in class java.lang.Object
