Method Detail

setRevision

void setRevision(Number revision)

This method sets the revision of this entity.
ATTENTION:
This operation should only be used in specific cases and if you are aware of what you are doing as this attribute is managed by the persistence. However, for final freedom we decided to add this method to the API (e.g. to copy from transfer-object to persistent-entity and vice-versa).

Parameters:

revision - is the new value of RevisionedEntity.getRevision().
