java.lang.Object
  org.soyatec.windowsazure.table.AbstractTableServiceEntity

All Implemented Interfaces:

ITableServiceEntity

public abstract class AbstractTableServiceEntity
extends java.lang.Object
implements ITableServiceEntity

This abstract class defines the common concepts of a table in Windows Azure. It represents an entity (row) in a table in table storage.

Two entries are considered to same when they have same PartitionKey and same RowKey in azure table service. This feature is used when update/merge/load entity from table service.
