| AggregateCollectionMapping.java | Class | Purpose: The aggregate collection mapping is used to represent the aggregate relationship between a single
source object and a collection of target objects. |
| AggregateMapping.java | Class | Purpose: Two objects can be considered to be related by aggregation if there is a strict
1:1 relationship between the objects. |
| AggregateObjectMapping.java | Class | Purpose:Two objects can be considered to be related by aggregation if there is a strict
1:1 relationship between the objects. |
| Association.java | Class | Purpose: Generic association object. |
| AttributeAccessor.java | Class | Purpose: This provides an abstract class for setting and retrieving
the attribute value for the mapping from an object. |
| CollectionMapping.java | Class | |
| ContainerMapping.java | Interface | Interface used by clients to interact
with the assorted mappings that use ContainerPolicy. |
| DatabaseMapping.java | Class | Purpose: Defines how an attribute of an object maps to and from the database
Responsibilities:
- Define type of relationship (1:1/1:M/M:M/etc.)
- Define instance variable name and fields names required
- Define any additional properties (ownership, indirection, read only, etc.)
- Control building the value for the instance variable from the database row

| ObjectReferenceMapping.java | Class | |
| OneToManyMapping.java | Class | Purpose: This mapping is used to represent the

| OneToOneMapping.java | Class | Purpose: One to one mappings are used to represent a pointer references
between two java objects. |
| RelationalMapping.java | Interface | INTERNAL
All mappings which can be added to oracle.toplink.essentials.mappings.Descriptor must
