public interface OptionalMapping
extends AttributeMapping

JPA attribute mapping that is optional (e.g. basic, single relationship). From the JPA spec:

 Whether the value of the field or property may be null. This is a hint 
 and is disregarded for primitive types; it may be used in schema generation.
 

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:
