ODatabaseDocument - createVertexClass()
This method creates a new database class, which extends the V
class.
Creating Vertex Classes
OrientDB borrows from the Object Oriented programming paradigm the concept of classes, which in these Reference pages is called a database class, to avoid confusion with classes in Java. Internally, each database class is an instance of OClass
. Using this method, you can create new database classes on the database, which extend the V
edge class.
To create a edge class instead, see createEdgeClass()
.
