Hi,

I have a hierarchy of objects using horizontal inheritance:

Entity A is Abstract
 - ordinal
 - type

Entity B : has Parent Entity A
 - rating

Entity C : has Parent Entity A
 - text

I also have an Entity Z that has a to-many relationship "contents" with Entity A

My question is:

I want to create an instance of Entity Z that has several Entity Bs and Entity 
Cs. How do I let ERRest know which classDescription to use?

For example with JSON string like:

{
        "nameText":"An Interesting Name",
        "type":"Entity Z",
        "contents":
                [{
                        "ordinal":"1",
                        "text":"This is some text content",
                        "type":"Entity C"
                }],
                [{
                        "ordinal":"6",
                        "rating":"1.5",
                        "type":"Entity B"
                }]
}

Is there a way of extracting the 'type' so that ERRest will use the correct 
classDescription when creating and updating entities?

Thanks

Charles
