Systems and methods for plain old java object (POJO) retrieval

A method to support POJO retrieval, comprising:

• augmenting a source code of a POJO class with one or more annotations;
• defining each of the one or more annotations via one of one or more annotation definitions;
• parsing and recognizing the type of the annotation in the annotated source code;
• compiling the annotated source code and the one or more annotation definitions into an executable bytecode;
• and
• retrieving one or more data entities from a database via one or more statements of a query language and generating one or more POJOs of the POJO class from the one or more data entities.

A machine readable medium having instructions stored thereon that when executed cause a system to:

• augment a source code of a POJO class with one or more annotations;
• define each of the one or more annotations via one of one or more annotation definitions;
• parse and recognize the type of the annotation in the annotated source code;
• compile the annotated source code and the one or more annotation definitions into an executable bytecode;
• and
• retrieve one or more data entities from a database via one or more statements of a query language and generate one or more POJOs of the POJO class from the one or more data entities.

A system to support POJO retrieval, comprising:

• means for retrieving one or more data entities from a database via one or more statements of a query language and generating one or more POJOs of the POJO class from the one or more data entities.

A computer data signal embodied in a transmission medium, comprising:

• a code segment including instructions to augment a source code of a POJO class with one or more annotations;
• a code segment including instructions to define each of the one or more annotations via one of one or more annotation definitions;
• a code segment including instructions to parse and recognize the type of the annotation in the annotated source code;
• a code segment including instructions to compile the annotated source code and the one or more annotation definitions into an executable bytecode;
• and
• a code segment including instructions to retrieve one or more data entities from a database via one or more statements of a query language and generate one or more POJOs of the POJO class from the one or more data entities.
