/**
* Specifies a single-valued association to another entity that has
* one-to-one multiplicity. It is not normally necessary to specify
* the associated target entity explicitly since it can usually be
* inferred from the type of the object being referenced. If the relationship is
* bidirectional, the non-owning side must use the mappedBy
element of
* the OneToOne
annotation to specify the relationship field or
* property of the owning side.
*
*
The OneToOne
annotation may be used within an
* embeddable class to specify a relationship from the embeddable
* class to an entity class. If the relationship is bidirectional and
* the entity containing the embeddable class is on the owning side of
* the relationship, the non-owning side must use the
* mappedBy
element of the OneToOne
* annotation to specify the relationship field or property of the
* embeddable class. The dot (".") notation syntax must be used in the
* mappedBy
element to indicate the relationship attribute within the
* embedded attribute. The value of each identifier used with the dot
* notation is the name of the respective embedded field or property.
*
*
* Example 1: One-to-one association that maps a foreign key column * * // On Customer class: * * @OneToOne(optional=false) * @JoinColumn( * name="CUSTREC_ID", unique=true, nullable=false, updatable=false) * public CustomerRecord getCustomerRecord() { return customerRecord; } * * // On CustomerRecord class: * * @OneToOne(optional=false, mappedBy="customerRecord") * public Customer getCustomer() { return customer; } * * * Example 2: One-to-one association that assumes both the source and target share the same primary key values. * * // On Employee class: * * @Entity * public class Employee { * @Id Integer id; * * @OneToOne @MapsId * EmployeeInfo info; * ... * } * * // On EmployeeInfo class: * * @Entity * public class EmployeeInfo { * @Id Integer id; * ... * } * * * Example 3: One-to-one association from an embeddable class to another entity. * * @Entity * public class Employee { * @Id int id; * @Embedded LocationDetails location; * ... * } * * @Embeddable * public class LocationDetails { * int officeNumber; * @OneToOne ParkingSpot parkingSpot; * ... * } * * @Entity * public class ParkingSpot { * @Id int id; * String garage; * @OneToOne(mappedBy="location.parkingSpot") Employee assignedTo; * ... * } * ** * @since Java Persistence 1.0 */ @Target({METHOD, FIELD}) @Retention(RUNTIME) public @interface OneToOne { /** * (Optional) The entity class that is the target of * the association. * *
