A base entity storage class.

Code

public function loadMultiple(array $ids = NULL) {
  $entities = array();

  // Create a new variable which is either a prepared version of the $ids
  // array for later comparison with the entity cache, or FALSE if no $ids
  // were passed. The $ids array is reduced as items are loaded from cache,
  // and we need to know if it's empty for this reason to avoid querying the
  // database when all requested entities are loaded from cache.
  $passed_ids = !empty($ids) ? array_flip($ids) : FALSE;
  // Try to load entities from the static cache, if the entity type supports
  // static caching.

  }

  // Load any remaining entities from the database. This is the case if $ids
  // is set to NULL (so we load all entities) or if there are any ids left to
  // load.
  if ($ids === NULL || $ids) {
    $queried_entities = $this->doLoadMultiple($ids);
  }

  // Pass all entities loaded from the database through $this->postLoad(),
  // which attaches fields (if supported by the entity type) and calls the
  // entity type specific load callback, for example hook_node_load().

  // Ensure that the returned array is ordered the same as the original
  // $ids array if this was passed in and remove any invalid ids.

    // Remove any invalid ids from the array.
