Grails Entity without persist

Question

I have a domain class in grails... How do I get gorm to leave out this entity when it create the db? Just leave it alone.

Answer 1

If i understood, u want not create table from domain class? If yes, use this code inside domain class:

static mapWith = "none" // disable persisting into database

Answer 2

Sounds like you don't need it to be a domain class then. You could just make it a POGO in the src/groovy file. If my assumptions here are wrong please explain further what you're trying to accomplish.

Answer 3

You could use Command Objects.

They provide the data binding and validation of domain classes, but do not map to the database.
