Interface MappedByJoiningStrategy

All Superinterfaces:

org.eclipse.core.runtime.IAdaptable, IResourcePart, JoiningStrategy, JpaContextNode, JpaNode, Model

All Known Subinterfaces:

JavaMappedByJoiningStrategy, OrmMappedByJoiningStrategy

public interface MappedByJoiningStrategy
extends JoiningStrategy

Joining strategy that depends on another mapping (the owning side of the relationship) to join the two entities. Uses "mappedBy" meta-data.

Provisional API: This interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.

Since:

2.2

Version:
