Craig Russell commented on JDO-510:
-----------------------------------
I agree. We can add a Persistent[ ] members() default {} to @PersistenceCapable
to do this easily enough. We can use the @Persistent(name="superclassName" ...)
with whatever overrides are needed.
But note that the spec doesn't allow for changing the persistenceModifier of a
superclass field or property. From 18.15, " The persistence-modifier attribute
can be specified only for fields declared in the Java class, and not fields
inherited from superclasses. " But mapping certainly can be overridden.
> Remove @Field and @Property and replace them with @Persistent

> Annotations are different from xml ways that make it impossible to refer to
> persistent fields and properties in the same way. We started out thinking
> that we could simply map the xml field to annotations @Field and xml property
> to @Property but could not refer to multiples in a sane way.
> This change removes @Field and @Property and replaces them with @Persistent.
> Other annotations that refer to these are changed so that they refer to
> members instead of to fields or properties.
