Description

Interface Summary

MMBaseChangeInterface	Builds a Thread to receive from and send changes to other MMBase Servers.
MMBaseObserver	Event/changes interface for MMObjectNodes this is a callback interface thats need to be implemented when a object wants to add itself as a change listener on Builder to recieve signals if nodes change.
TemporaryNodeManagerInterface
TransactionManagerInterface

Class Summary

ByteFieldContainer	MMObjectNodes can contain Binary data.
ClusterBuilder	The builder for clusternodes.
ClusterNode	ClusterNode combines fields of different nodes in a single "virtual" node. This corresponds to the way that an SQL "join" select statement combines fields of different tables in result rows.
MMBase	The module which provides access to the MMBase database defined by the provided name/setup.
MMBaseContext	Using MMBaseContext class you can retrieve the servletContext from anywhere using the get method.
MMBaseProbe	MMBaseProbe is a thread-like object that gets instantiated by MMbase.
MMContainerCompare	Class to compare two MMObjectNodes, used by SortedVector.
MMObjectBuilder	This class is the base class for all builders.
MMObjectCompare	MMObjectNodeCompare can me used as a compare function in Sortable objects from org.mmbase.util (hitlisted)
MMObjectDCompare	MMObjectNodeCompare can me used as a compare function in Sortable objects from org.mmbase.util (hitlisted)
MMObjectNode	MMObjectNode is the core of the MMBase system.
MMTable	MMTable is the base abstraction of a cloud of objects stored in one database tabel, essentially a cloud of objects of the same type.
TemporaryNodeManager
TransactionManager
TransactionResolver
VirtualBuilder	VirtualBuilder is a builder which creates 'virtual' nodes.
VirtualNode	VirtualNode is a representation of a virtual objectnode.
VirtualReferrerBuilder	VirtualBuilder is a builder which creates 'virtual' nodes.

Exception Summary

BuilderConfigurationException	Builder configuration exception.
CircularReferenceException	Circular reference exception.
InvalidDataException	This exception gets thrown when a node contains invalid data.
TransactionManagerException	This Exception is thrown when something goes wrong the MMBase transaction manager.

Package org.mmbase.module.core Description

The core classes for MMBase. These classes define core functionality and the building stones of the MMBase cloud.

The main classes defined here are MMBase, which is module that loads and initializes the MMBase cloud, MMObjectBuilder, which represents collections of objects of a specific type, and MMObjectNode, which represents individual objects in the cloud.

Other classes define code for handling inter-server-communication, virtual and temporary objects, transaction handling, and MMbaseObservers - classdes that 'observe' and react to events in MMBase.fc
