        True if this instance can be used as-is; false if not
      • generateId

        public java.lang.Object generateId​(java.lang.Object forPojo)
        Description copied from class: ObjectIdGenerator

        public ObjectIdGenerator<java.lang.Object> forScope​(java.lang.Class<?> scope)
        Description copied from class: ObjectIdGenerator
        Factory method to create a blueprint instance for specified scope. Generators that do not use scope may return 'this'.

      • newForSerialization

        public ObjectIdGenerator<java.lang.Object> newForSerialization​(java.lang.Object context)
        Description copied from class: ObjectIdGenerator
        Factory method called to create a new instance to use for serialization: needed since generators may have state (next id to produce).

        Parameters:
