get all fields of an Entity

[Gabriel Oberreuter]

Hi all,

Do anyone knows how to get all fields of a given Entity programmatically? I can't seem to find that functionality of just lack the java knowledge to just do it.

I am creating a query and want to select "all" current fields of an entity. When executing the query, I can pass a Set of fields to select. I need something of the like:

Set<String> fieldsOfEntityInvoice = Invoice.getAllEntityFields();

For now, I am building the Set manually, adding each field of the entities using set.add("invoiceId"), for example.

Thanks

If you pass null as your set of fields, it will select all fields.

Oh, thanks. That works great to select all fields when executing the query.

I still need to get all fields of an entity at other parts of our code, do you know how to achieve this?

Something like this should work:

        ModelEntity modelEntity = delegator.getModelEntity("Invoice");
        List<String> fieldNames = modelEntity.getAllFieldNames();
