Obfuscatable delegate
If you intend to use obfuscation with an entity, it must implement the Obfuscatable delegate. This delegate is necessary to support marking fields as personally identifiable information with the PersonalData tag.
Note: A Delegate is a reusable type that defines database
columns, an interface, and a default implementation of that interface. A delegate
permits an entity to implement an interface while delegating the implementation of
that interface to another class, that of the delegate. Each delegate type provides
additional columns on the affected tables.
The Obfuscatable delegate has one column,
ObfuscatedInternal, which cannot be set in Gosu code. This
limitation exists because after the ObfuscatedInternal column has
been set to true, it must not be set to false.
Note: If the parent of an entity implements the
Obfuscatable delegate, all child entities inherit that
implementation.
The Obfuscatable delegate extends the interfaces Obfuscator and ObfuscatablePublicMethods. These interfaces provide the following methods:
- markAsObfuscated
- Marks the entity instance as having been obfuscated by setting
ObfuscateInternal to
trueon the delegate. - isObfuscated
- Returns
trueif obfuscate has been called and completed successfully. Otherwise returnsfalse. - obfuscate
- Obfuscates the columns that are marked for obfuscation on this object.
- obfuscateSimple
- Works the same as obfuscate.
