ezcPersistentSession is the main runtime interface for manipulation of persistent objects.
Persistent objects can be stored calling save() resulting in an INSERT query. If the object is already persistent you can store it using update() which results in an UPDATE query. If you want to query persistent objects you can use the find methods.

Create a relation between $object and $relatedObject.
This method is used to create a relation between the given source $object and the desired $relatedObject. The related object is not stored in the database automatically, only the desired properties are set. An exception is {@ezcPersistentManyToManyRelation}s, where the relation record is stored automatically and there is no need to store $relatedObject explicitly after establishing the relation.
If there are multiple relations defined between the class of $object and $relatedObject (via ezcPersistentRelationCollection), the $relationName parameter becomes mandatory to determine, which exact relation should be used.

ezcPersistentSessionFoundation::addRelatedObject() |
Create a relation between $object and $relatedObject. |
Returns a delete query for the given persistent object $class.
The query is initialized to delete from the correct table and it is only neccessary to set the where clause.
Example:
Name | Type | Description |

$class |

Method | Description |

ezcPersistentSessionFoundation::createDeleteQuery() |
Returns a delete query for the given persistent object $class. |
Returns a select query for the given persistent object $class.
The query is initialized to fetch all columns from the correct table and has correct alias mappings between columns and property names of the persistent $class.
Example:

ezcPersistentSessionFoundation::createFindQuery() |
Returns a select query for the given persistent object $class. |
Returns the base query for retrieving related objects.
See getRelatedObject() and getRelatedObjects(). Can be modified by additional where conditions and simply be used with find() and the related class name, to retrieve a sub-set of related objects.
If multiple relations are defined for the $relatedClass (using ezcPersistentRelationCollection), the parameter $relationName becomes mandatory to determine which relation definition to use. For normal relations, this parameter is silently ignored.

ezcPersistentSessionFoundation::createRelationFindQuery() |
Returns the base query for retrieving related objects. |
Returns a sub-select for the given $class to be used with $parentQuery.
This method creates an ezcPersistentFindQuery as a ezcQuerySubSelect for the given $class. The returned query has already set aliases for the properties of $class, but (in contrast to the query returned by createFindQuery()) does not have the selection of all properties set. You need to do
manually to select the fields you desire.

ezcPersistentSessionFoundation::createUpdateQuery() |
Returns an update query for the given persistent object $class. |
Deletes the persistent object $object.
This method will perform a DELETE query based on the identifier of the persistent object $object. After delete() the ID property of $object will be reset to null. It is possible to save() $object afterwards. $object will then be stored with a new ID.
If you defined relations for the given object, these will be checked to be defined as cascading. If cascading is configured, the related objects with this relation will be deleted, too.
Relations that support cascading are:
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
$object |
object | The persistent object to delete. |
Type | Description |
---|---|
ezcPersistentDefinitionNotFoundxception |
if $the object is not recognized as a persistent object. |
ezcPersistentObjectNotPersistentException |
if the object is not persistent already. |
ezcPersistentQueryException |
if the object could not be deleted. |
Method | Description |
---|---|
ezcPersistentSessionFoundation::delete() |
Deletes the persistent object $object. |
Deletes persistent objects using the query $query.
The $query should be created using createDeleteQuery().
Currently this method only executes the provided query. Future releases PersistentSession may introduce caching of persistent objects. When caching is introduced it will be required to use this method to run cusom delete queries. To avoid being incompatible with future releases it is advisable to always use this method when running custom delete queries on persistent objects.

ezcPersistentSessionFoundation::deleteFromQuery() |
Deletes persistent objects using the query $query. |
Returns the result of the query $query as a list of objects.
Returns the persistent objects found for $class using the submitted $query. $query should be created using createFindQuery() to ensure correct alias mappings and can be manipulated as needed.
Example:
If you are retrieving large result set, consider using findIterator() instead.

ezcPersistentQueryException |

ezcBaseValueException |
if $query parameter is not an instance of ezcPersistentFindQuery or ezcQuerySelect. Or if $class is missing if you use ezcQuerySelect. |
Method | Description |
---|---|
ezcPersistentSessionFoundation::find() |
Returns the result of the query $query as a list of objects. |
Returns the result of $query for the $class as an iterator.
This method is similar to find() but returns an ezcPersistentFindIterator instead of an array of objects. This is useful if you are going to loop over the objects and just need them one at the time. Because you only instantiate one object it is faster than find(). In addition, only 1 record is retrieved from the database in each iteration, which may reduce the data transfered between the database and PHP, if you iterate only through a small subset of the affected records.
Note that if you do not loop over the complete result set you must call ezcPersistentFindIterator::flush() before issuing another query.

Returns the related object of a given $relatedClass for an $object.
This method returns the related object of type $relatedClass for the object $object. This method (in contrast to getRelatedObjects()) always returns a single result object, no matter if more related objects could be found (e.g. ezcPersistentOneToManyRelation). If no related object is found, an exception is thrown, while getRelatedObjects() just returns an empty array in this case.
Example:
Relations that should preferably be used with this method are:
For other relation types getRelatedObjects() is recommended.If multiple relations are defined for the $relatedClass (using ezcPersistentRelationCollection), the parameter $relationName becomes mandatory to determine which relation definition to use. For normal relations, this parameter is silently ignored.

Returns the related objects of a given $relatedClass for an $object.
This method returns the related objects of type $relatedClass for the given $object. This method (in contrast to getRelatedObject()) always returns an array of found objects, no matter if only 1 object was found (e.g. ezcPersistentManyToOneRelation), none or several (ezcPersistentManyToManyRelation).
Example:

Returns if $relatedObject is related to $sourceObject.
Checks the relation conditions between $sourceObject and $relatedObject and returns true, if $relatedObject is related to $sourceObject, otherwise false. In case multiple relations are defined between the classes of $sourceObject and $relatedObject, the $relationName parameter becomes mandatory. If it is not provided in this case, an ezcPersistentUndeterministicRelationException is thrown.
Note that checking relations of type ezcPersistentManyToManyRelation will issue a database query. Other relations will not perform this.

This method is used to delete an existing relation between 2 objects. Like addRelatedObject() this method does not store the related object after removing its relation properties (unset), except for ezcPersistentManyToManyRelation()s, for which the relation record is deleted from the database.
