Support for embeddable classes
------------------------------
Key: CAY-733
URL: https://issues.apache.org/cayenne/browse/CAY-733
Project: Cayenne
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Cayenne Core Library
Affects Versions: 3.0
Reporter: Andrus Adamchik
Assigned To: Andrus Adamchik
Fix For: 3.0
JPA specification supports a notion of "embeddable" class. Embeddable classes
can be viewed as multi-column custom types that do not have their own identity
and belong to another persistent object. Entities that embed them can override
DB column mapping. Currently Cayenne supports single-column custom types via
ExtendedType mechanism. We need to expand that to support multi-column
Embeddables and mapping via the Modeler.
This is a master task for Embeddable implementation in Cayenne. Specific coding
tasks will be tracked via separate linked jira issues.
