org.eclipse.persistence.mappings
Class ManyToManyMapping

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.eclipse.persistence.mappings.DatabaseMapping
      extended by org.eclipse.persistence.mappings.ForeignReferenceMapping
          extended by org.eclipse.persistence.mappings.CollectionMapping
              extended by org.eclipse.persistence.mappings.ManyToManyMapping
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable, ContainerMapping, MapComponentMapping, RelationalMapping

public class ManyToManyMapping
extends CollectionMapping
implements RelationalMapping, MapComponentMapping

Purpose: Many to many mappings are used to represent the relationships between a collection of source objects and a collection of target objects. The mapping requires the creation of an intermediate table for managing the associations between the source and target records.
