Parameters:

entitySetName - the entity-set

entityKeyValues - the entity-key as one or more values

Returns:

the entity-id

create

public static OEntityId create(String entitySetName,
                               OEntityKey entityKey)

Creates an entity-id.

Parameters:

entitySetName - the entity-set

entityKey - the entity-key

Returns:

the entity-id

equals

public static boolean equals(OEntityId lhs,
                             OEntityId rhs)

Determines equality of two entity ids. Ids are equal if their key strings are equal.

Parameters:

lhs - the first entity id

rhs - the second entity id

Returns:

whether or not the ids are equal

parse

public static OEntityId parse(String entityId)

Parses an entity-id from a "key string" representation.

e.g. Customers(15)

Parameters:

entityId - the entity-id as a string representation

Returns:

the parsed entity-id

parse

public static OEntityId parse(String serviceRootUri,
                              String uri)

Parses an entity-id of an entity at an OData uri given its service root uri.

Parameters:

serviceRootUri - the service root uri

uri - the entity uri

Returns:

the parsed entity-id

toKeyString

public static String toKeyString(OEntityId entity)

Computes the "key string" representation of an entity.

Parameters:

entity - the entity

Returns:

the "key string" representation e.g. Customers(15)
