<P>TableMaps contain all the information necessary to map a table to

31 |
|
|
a class or property: table information, class (element type) name,
|
32 |
|
|
column maps, information about related tables, and so on. Note that
|
33 |
|
|
the arrays containing information about related tables (relatedTables,
|
34 |
|
|
parentKeyIsCandidate, parentKeys, childKeys, and orderColumns) are read
|
35 |
|
|
in parallel and must contain the same number of entries in the same
|
36 |
|
|
order.</P>
|
37 |
|
|
<P>TableMaps are stored in an array in the Map class and in the
|
38 |
|
|
relatedTableMaps hash table in TableMap, which is keyed by table name.</P>
