Mapping multiple properties or child nodes to a single field

                 Key: GRFT-110
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GRFT-110
             Project: Graffito
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: JCR-Mapping
            Reporter: Felix Meschberger


While working on our project, I encountered the need to map multiple properties 
(or child nodes) to a single field. I think, such a mapping can be implemented 
using a CollectionDescriptor whose name is a pattern suitable for the 
Node.getProperties(String pattern) and Node.getNodes(String pattern), resp. Of 
course, best would be to base such an implementing on a Map type field.

Hence I implemented a ResidualPropertiesCollectionConverterImpl mapping 
multiple properties and a ResidualNodesCollectionConverterImpl mapping multiple 
child nodes as well as ManagedHashMap to support both classes.

I could imagine, that such functionality could be of use for others, too. 
Therefore I am willing to give them to the project. Attached, you will find the 
three classes. NB: Currently the classes are in our own package, which would of 
course should be fixed when integrating with the JCR-Mapping project.
