For information, you can find an initial (top-level) set of suggested JDO2
annotations at
http://jpox.cvs.sourceforge.net/jpox/JPOX/Plugins/Java5/src/java/org/jpox/annotations/
in case JDO2 decides to adopt its own annotations.
The aim with these is to retain the mapping MetaData<->Annotation (which is what
JPA does, just they dont have such generalised MetaData so cant specify things
that we need). The main annotations are
@PersistenceCapable
class MyClass
{
@PersistentField
String myField;
...
}
@PersistenceAware
class MyAwareClass
{
...
}
The "class" metadata element maps to the "PersistenceCapable" annotation. The
"field" metadata element maps to the "PersistentField" annotation. The only
place
where this differs in this sample set is that I split out "PersistenceAware" as
its own annotation.
