<P>
The primary index for an entity class and its primary key.

 <p><code>PrimaryIndex</code> objects are thread-safe.  Multiple threads may
 safely call the methods of a shared <code>PrimaryIndex</code> object.</p>

 <p><code>PrimaryIndex</code> implements <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/EntityIndex.html" title="interface in com.sleepycat.persist"><CODE>EntityIndex</CODE></A> to map the primary
 key type (PK) to the entity type (E).</p>

 <p>The <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/model/Entity.html" title="annotation in com.sleepycat.persist.model"><CODE>Entity</CODE></A> annotation may be used to define an entity class and
 the <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/model/PrimaryKey.html" title="annotation in com.sleepycat.persist.model"><CODE>PrimaryKey</CODE></A> annotation may be used to define a primary key as
 shown in the following example.</p>

 <pre class="code">
 @Entity
 class Employee {

     @PrimaryKey
     long id;

     String name;

     Employee(long id, String name) {
         this.id = id;
         this.name = name;
     }

     private Employee() {} // For bindings
 }</pre>

 <p>To obtain the <code>PrimaryIndex</code> for a given entity class, call <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/EntityStore.html#getPrimaryIndex(java.lang.Class, java.lang.Class)"><CODE>EntityStore.getPrimaryIndex</CODE></A>, passing the
 primary key class and the entity class.  For example:</p>

 <pre class="code">
 EntityStore store = new EntityStore(...);

 <code>PrimaryIndex&lt;Long, Employee&gt;</code> primaryIndex =
     store.getPrimaryIndex(Long.class, Employee.class);</pre>
 </pre>

 <p>Note that <code>Long.class</code> is passed as the primary key class, but the
 primary key field has the primitive type <code>long</code>.  When a primitive
 primary key field is used, the corresponding primitive wrapper class is used
 to access the primary index.  For more information on key field types, see
 <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/model/PrimaryKey.html" title="annotation in com.sleepycat.persist.model"><CODE>PrimaryKey</CODE></A>.</p>

 <p>The <code>PrimaryIndex</code> provides the primary storage and access methods
 for the instances of a particular entity class.  Entities are inserted and
 updated in the <code>PrimaryIndex</code> by calling a method in the family of
 <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/PrimaryIndex.html#put(E)"><CODE>put(E)</CODE></A> methods.  The <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/PrimaryIndex.html#put(E)"><CODE>put(E)</CODE></A> method will insert the entity if no
 entity with the same primary key already exists.  If an entity with the same
 primary key does exist, it will update the entity and return the existing
 (old) entity.  For example:</p>

 <pre class="code">
 Employee oldEntity;
 oldEntity = primaryIndex.put(new Employee(1, "Jane Smith"));    // Inserts an entity
 assert oldEntity == null;
 oldEntity = primaryIndex.put(new Employee(2, "Joan Smith"));    // Inserts an entity
 assert oldEntity == null;
 oldEntity = primaryIndex.put(new Employee(2, "Joan M. Smith")); // Updates an entity
 assert oldEntity != null;</pre>

 <p>The <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/PrimaryIndex.html#putNoReturn(E)"><CODE>putNoReturn(E)</CODE></A> method can be used to avoid the overhead of
 returning the existing entity, when the existing entity is not important to
 the application.  The return type of <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/PrimaryIndex.html#putNoReturn(E)"><CODE>putNoReturn(E)</CODE></A> is void.  For
 example:</p>

 <pre class="code">
 primaryIndex.putNoReturn(new Employee(1, "Jane Smith"));    // Inserts an entity
 primaryIndex.putNoReturn(new Employee(2, "Joan Smith"));    // Inserts an entity
 primaryIndex.putNoReturn(new Employee(2, "Joan M. Smith")); // Updates an entity</pre>

 <p>The <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/PrimaryIndex.html#putNoOverwrite(E)"><CODE>putNoOverwrite(E)</CODE></A> method can be used to ensure that an existing
 entity is not overwritten.  <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/PrimaryIndex.html#putNoOverwrite(E)"><CODE>putNoOverwrite(E)</CODE></A> returns true if the
 entity was inserted, or false if an existing entity exists and no action was
 taken.  For example:<p>

 <pre class="code">
 boolean inserted;
 inserted = primaryIndex.putNoOverwrite(new Employee(1, "Jane Smith"));    // Inserts an entity
 assert inserted;
 inserted = primaryIndex.putNoOverwrite(new Employee(2, "Joan Smith"));    // Inserts an entity
 assert inserted;
 inserted = primaryIndex.putNoOverwrite(new Employee(2, "Joan M. Smith")); // <strong>No action was taken!</strong>
 assert !inserted;</pre>

 <p>Primary key values must be unique, in other words, each instance of a
 given entity class must have a distinct primary key value.  Rather than
 assigning the unique primary key values yourself, a <em>sequence</em> can be
 used to assign sequential integer values automatically, starting with the
 value 1 (one).  A sequence is defined using the <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/model/PrimaryKey.html#sequence()"><CODE>PrimaryKey.sequence()</CODE></A>
 annotation property.  For example:</p>

 <pre class="code">
 @Entity
 class Employee {

     @PrimaryKey(sequence="ID")
     long id;

     String name;

     Employee(String name) {
         this.name = name;
     }

     private Employee() {} // For bindings
 }</pre>

 <p>The name of the sequence used above is "ID".  Any name can be used.  If
 the same sequence name is used in more than one entity class, the sequence
 will be shared by those classes, in other words, a single sequence of
 integers will be used for all instances of those classes.  See <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/model/PrimaryKey.html#sequence()"><CODE>PrimaryKey.sequence()</CODE></A> for more information.</p>

 <p>Any method in the family of <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/PrimaryIndex.html#put(E)"><CODE>put(E)</CODE></A> methods may be used to insert
 entities where the primary key is assigned from a sequence.  When the <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/PrimaryIndex.html#put(E)"><CODE>put(E)</CODE></A> method returns, the primary key field of the entity object will be set
 to the assigned key value.  For example:</p>

 <pre class="code">
 Employee employee;
 employee = new Employee("Jane Smith");
 primaryIndex.putNoReturn(employee);    // Inserts an entity
 assert employee.id == 1;
 employee = new Employee("Joan Smith");
 primaryIndex.putNoReturn(employee);    // Inserts an entity
 assert employee.id == 2;</pre>

 <p>This begs the question:  How do you update an existing entity, without
 assigning a new primary key?  The answer is that the <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/PrimaryIndex.html#put(E)"><CODE>put(E)</CODE></A> methods
 will only assign a new key from the sequence if the primary key field is
 zero or null (for reference types).  If an entity with a non-zero and
 non-null key field is passed to a <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/PrimaryIndex.html#put(E)"><CODE>put(E)</CODE></A> method, any existing entity
 with that primary key value will be updated.  For example:</p>

 <pre class="code">
 Employee employee;
 employee = new Employee("Jane Smith");
 primaryIndex.putNoReturn(employee);    // Inserts an entity
 assert employee.id == 1;
 employee = new Employee("Joan Smith");
 primaryIndex.putNoReturn(employee);    // Inserts an entity
 assert employee.id == 2;
 employee.name = "Joan M. Smith";
 primaryIndex.putNoReturn(employee);    // Updates an existing entity
 assert employee.id == 2;</pre>

 <p>Since <code>PrimaryIndex</code> implements the <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/EntityIndex.html" title="interface in com.sleepycat.persist"><CODE>EntityIndex</CODE></A> interface,
 it shares the common index methods for retrieving and deleting entities,
 opening cursors and using transactions.  See <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/EntityIndex.html" title="interface in com.sleepycat.persist"><CODE>EntityIndex</CODE></A> for more
 information on these topics.</p>

 <p>Note that when using an index, keys and values are stored and retrieved
 by value not by reference.  In other words, if an entity object is stored
 and then retrieved, or retrieved twice, each object will be a separate
 instance.  For example, in the code below the assertion will always
 fail.</p>
 <pre class="code">
 MyKey key = ...;
 MyEntity entity1 = new MyEntity(key, ...);
 index.put(entity1);
 MyEntity entity2 = index.get(key);
 assert entity1 == entity2; // always fails!
 </pre>

<DD>Creates a primary index without using an <code>EntityStore</code>.

 <p>This constructor is not normally needed and is provided for
 applications that wish to use custom bindings along with the Direct
 Persistence Layer.  Normally, <A HREF="../../../com/sleepycat/persist/EntityStore.html#getPrimaryIndex(java.lang.Class, java.lang.Class)"><CODE>getPrimaryIndex</CODE></A> is used instead.</p>

 <p>Note that when this constructor is used directly, primary keys cannot
 be automatically assigned from a sequence.  The key assignment feature
 requires knowledge of the primary key field, which is only available if
 an <code>EntityStore</code> is used.  Of course, primary keys may be
 assigned from a sequence manually before calling the <code>put</code>
 methods in this class.</p>
