Class Summary

Class	Description
ByteFieldContainer	Deprecated
ClusterBuilder	The builder for clusternodes.
ClusterNode	ClusterNode combines fields of different nodes in a single "virtual" node.
MMBase	The module which provides access to the MMBase storage defined by the provided name/setup.
MMBaseContext	Using MMBaseContext class you can retrieve the servletContext from anywhere using the get method.
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	Deprecated This nearly duplicates MMObjectCompare.
MMObjectNode	MMObjectNode is the core of the MMBase system.
MMObjectNodeFunction<R>	Sometimes you may want to implement a function on a node based on an MMObjectNode instance.
MMTable	MMTable is the base abstraction of a cloud of objects stored in one database table, essentially a cloud of objects of the same type.
SmartPathFunction	Returns the path to use for TREEPART, TREEFILE, LEAFPART and LEAFFILE.
TemporaryNodeManager	This class is severely underdocumented.
TransactionManager	The MMBase transaction manager manages a group of changes.
TransactionResolver
VirtualBuilder	VirtualBuilder is a builder which creates 'virtual' nodes.
VirtualNode	VirtualNode is a representation of a virtual objectnode.

Exception Summary

Exception	Description
BuilderConfigurationException	Builder configuration exception.

InvalidDataException	This exception gets thrown when a node contains invalid data.

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
