public final class PropertyPersistence
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable

Field Summary

Fields
Modifier and Type	Field and Description
`static PropertyPersistence`	`NOT_PERSISTENT` Specifies that a property cannot be made persistent.
`static int`	`NOT_PERSISTENT_AS_INT` An `int` value associated with the NOT_PERSISTENT instance of this class.
`static PropertyPersistence`	`OWN_COLUMN` Specifies that a property has a dedicated column in the database and therefore can be made persistent.
`static int`	`OWN_COLUMN_AS_INT` An `int` value associated with the OWN_COLUMN instance of this class.
`static PropertyPersistence`	`OWN_TABLE` Specifies that the property has a dedicated table in the database and therefore can be made persistent.
`static int`	`OWN_TABLE_AS_INT` An `int` value associated with the OWN_TABLE instance of this class.

Method Summary

Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`static PropertyPersistence`	`getInstanceFromInt(int value)` Returns an instance of this class using its associated integer value.
`int`	`getValue()` Returns the internal integer value associated with a specific instance of this class.
`java.lang.String`	`toString()` Returns a `String` representation of this enumeration instance.

- Field Detail
  - OWN_TABLE_AS_INT
```
public static final int OWN_TABLE_AS_INT
```
    An int value associated with the OWN_TABLE instance of this class. Consider using the static instances of this class instead of the associated int values. The int values risk binary incompatibility (but not source incompatibility) from release to release.

    Constant Field Values
  - OWN_TABLE
```
public static final PropertyPersistence OWN_TABLE
```
    Specifies that the property has a dedicated table in the database and therefore can be made persistent. This setting applies only to multi-valued scalar (non-object) properties and causes the server to store a property's values into a custom table, which is generated by the server when its property template is first assigned to a class definition as a property definition. The name of this table is derived from the name of the corresponding property. Once it has been created, the same table will be used to store the property's values, regardless of the class to which the property is assigned.
  - OWN_COLUMN_AS_INT
```
public static final int OWN_COLUMN_AS_INT
```
    An int value associated with the OWN_COLUMN instance of this class. Consider using the static instances of this class instead of the associated int values. The int values risk binary incompatibility (but not source incompatibility) from release to release.
    
    See Also:
    Constant Field Values
  - OWN_COLUMN
```
public static final PropertyPersistence OWN_COLUMN
```
    Specifies that a property has a dedicated column in the database and therefore can be made persistent.
  - NOT_PERSISTENT_AS_INT
```
public static final int NOT_PERSISTENT_AS_INT
```
    An int value associated with the NOT_PERSISTENT instance of this class. Consider using the static instances of this class instead of the associated int values. The int values risk binary incompatibility (but not source incompatibility) from release to release.
    
    See Also:
    Constant Field Values
  - NOT_PERSISTENT
```
public static final PropertyPersistence NOT_PERSISTENT
```
    Specifies that a property cannot be made persistent. If a property is defined as NOT_PERSISTENT, has a default value defined, and the Settability property of its property template has a value of PropertySettability.READ_ONLY, the property is considered to be a constant and will always return its default value for any instance of the property that is returned.
- Method Detail
  - getValue
```
public int getValue()
```
    Returns the internal integer value associated with a specific instance of this class.
    
    Returns:
    The enumeration instance's ordinal value.
    See Also:
    getInstanceFromInt(int)
  - toString
```
public java.lang.String toString()
```
    Returns a String representation of this enumeration instance.
    
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class java.lang.Object
    
    Returns:
    The enumeration instance's description.
  - getInstanceFromInt
```
public static PropertyPersistence getInstanceFromInt(int value)
```
    Returns an instance of this class using its associated integer value.
    
    Parameters:
    value - The integer value. (See the *_AS_INT fields.)
    
    Returns:
    The enumeration instance with the given ordinal value.
    
    Throws:
    
    EngineRuntimeException - If an enumeration instance with the given ordinal value does not exist.
