Annotation Type AssociationOverride


@Target(value={TYPE,METHOD,FIELD})
@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
public @interface AssociationOverride

This annotation is used to override a many-to-one or one-to-one mapping of property or field for an entity relationship. The AssociationOverride annotation may be applied to an entity that extends a mapped superclass to override a many-to-one or one-to-one mapping defined by the mapped superclass. If the AssociationOverride annotation is not specified, the join column is mapped the same as in the original mapping.
