Method Detail

createSurrogates

void createSurrogates(PrepareRequest req)

Modify req so that all references are local. It should do so by creating or reusing surrogate objects for all of the non-local references. Any new surrogate objects should be added to the req.creates, while any read surrogate objects should be added to req.reads.

TODO:

• Add any required fields for authorization and surrogate policies
• Need access to an object database to allocate new surrogate onums

Parameters:

req - the collections of objects created, modified, and read by this transaction. These collections may be modified if surrogate objects are created or modified.
