EntityStatus
============

.. java:package:: org.caosdb.server.utils
   :noindex:

.. java:type:: public enum EntityStatus

   The order of the EntityStatus values matters, in that everything later than "QUALIFIED" also counts as qualified.

   ..

   * IGNORE - This instance must be ignored during further processing.
   * UNQUALIFIED - This instance has been checked and is not qualified to be processed further (i.e. to be inserted, updated, deleted)
   * DELETED - This instance has been deleted recently.
   * NONEXISTENT - This instance has been called (via id or something) but it doesn't exist.
   * QUALIFIED - This instance has a provisional or final ID, represents a well-formed entity, and any referenced entities (by a reference property) have status QUALIFIED or VALID. Every status after this one also counts as QUALIFIED.
   * VALID - This instance has a final ID and has been synchronized with the database.
