Element Details

modelType

Class<? extends Linkable> modelType

Specifies the resource model class for the resource view annotated by this annotation. The model type of this annotation binds a model class to a resource view. When a resource controller looks for a view for a specific model class, this binding info is used to find the corresponding view class. The view implementation class of LinkableView or EntryableView has a parameterized constructor which declares the model class type, e.g. {LinkableView(com.emc.documentum.rest.model.Linkable, com.emc.documentum.rest.http.UriInfo, String, Boolean, java.util.Map)} or EntryableView(com.emc.documentum.rest.model.Linkable, com.emc.documentum.rest.http.UriInfo, String, Boolean, java.util.Map). The model class type in the constructor must be identical to the model class defined in the annotation.

Returns:

model class

entryType

Class<? extends AtomEntry> entryType

Specifies the atom entry class which is used for instantiating the entry within a AtomFeed. The default is AtomEntry. If the custom view defines a custom atom entry class for the model, sets the custom atom entry class here.

Returns:

entry class

Default:

com.emc.documentum.rest.model.AtomEntry.class
