@ExcludeDefaultMappings

Use @ExcludeDefaultMappings to specify that no default mapping should be added to a specific class. Instead, EclipseLink will use only mappings that are explicitly defined by annotations or the XML mapping file.

Annotation Elements

There are no elements for this annotation.

Usage

You can specify @ExcludeDefaultMappings on an Entity, MappedSuperclass, or Embeddable class.

Examples

Example 2-40 shows how to use the @ExcludeDefaultMapping annotation.

@ExcludeDefaultMappings
@Entity
public class Dealer {
    @Id
    private long id;
    @Basic
    private String name;
    // These would be ignored
    private List<Card> deck;
    private List<Card> hand;
    ...
}
