Annotation Interface BasicCollection

@Target({METHOD,FIELD}) @Retention(RUNTIME) @Deprecated public @interface BasicCollection
Deprecated.
Use ElementCollection.
A BasicCollection is used to map an DirectCollectionMapping, which stores a collection of simple types (String, Number, Date, etc.). It is used in conjunction with a CollectionTable which stores the value and a foreign key to the source object.

Converters may be used if the desired object type and the data type do not match.

A BasicCollection can be specified on within an Entity, MappedSuperclass and Embeddable class.
