Class EntryInfo

java.lang.Object
  com.j_spaces.core.client.EntryInfo

public final class EntryInfo
extends Object

This Object contains entry information like its UID and Version ID. You can use this class to assign entry UID when created and read entry using its ID. GigaSpaces will update this object when reading and updating the entry. See below example:

 import net.jini.core.lease.Lease;
 import net.jini.space.JavaSpace;
 import com.j_spaces.core.IJSpace;
 import com.j_spaces.core.LeaseProxy;
 import com.j_spaces.core.client.EntryInfo;
 import com.j_spaces.core.client.SpaceFinder;
 import com.j_spaces.core.client.ClientUIDHandler ;

                        space.clean();
                        //              Setting Entry UID

                        // you must make sure you provide unique name!
                        String uid1 = ClientUIDHandler.createUIDFromName("MyEntryUID" ,MyEntry.class.getName() );

                        EntryInfo ei1 = new EntryInfo(uid1 , 0);
                        myentry.__setEntryInfo(ei1);
                        //               Write entry to space

                        System.out.println("Wrote Object with UID:" + lp.getUID());

                        //              Reading Entry using its UID
                        MyEntry template = new MyEntry();

                        String uid2 =  ClientUIDHandler.createUIDFromName("MyEntryUID" ,MyEntry.class.getName() );
                        EntryInfo ei2 = new EntryInfo(uid2 , 0);
                        template.__setEntryInfo(ei2);
                        MyEntry m = (MyEntry) space.read(template, null, JavaSpace.NO_WAIT);
                        System.out.println("Read Object with UID:" + m.__getEntryInfo().m_UID + " Data:" + m.myData);
                } catch (Exception e)
       {
                        e.printStackTrace();
                 }
        }
 }
