OFunction - setIdempotent()

Sets whether the function is idempotent.

Function Idempotence

OrientDB differentiates between idempotent queries and non-idempotent commands. That is, queries that always return the same results versus commands that write to the database. In functions this is indicated by a simple boolean value set on the OFunction instance. Using this method you can set idempotence for the function. To determine whether a function is set as idempotent, see the isIdempotent() method.

Syntax

OFunction OFunction().setIdempotent(boolean idempotence)

Return Type

This method returns the updated OFunction instance, which you may find useful when stringing several operations together.
