Class SuppressPrimaryKeys

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.commons.betwixt.strategy.ValueSuppressionStrategy
      org.apache.torque.betwixt.util.SuppressPrimaryKeys

public class SuppressPrimaryKeys
extends org.apache.commons.betwixt.strategy.ValueSuppressionStrategy

A Betwixt BeanWriter ValueSuppressionStategy that will filter out all primary key columns when the XML is written. This can be useful if your primary keys are autogenerated ids and you want to create new primary ids on import. It can also make for more "user readable" exports in some cases. (Plus it's a good example of using this Betwixt filter).

To use it, you need to add it to the BeanWriter's bindingConfiguration before writing the XML out. E.g.:

beanWriter.getBindingConfiguration().setValueSuppressionStrategy( new SuppressPrimaryKeys() );
