All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, ColumnMetaDataContainer

public class ElementMetaData
extends AbstractElementMetaData

This element specifies the mapping for the element component of arrays and collections. If only one column is mapped, and no additional information is needed for the column, then the column attribute can be used. Otherwise, the column element(s) are used. The serialised attribute specifies that the key values are to be serialised into the named column. The foreign-key attribute specifies the name of a foreign key to be generated.
