AggregateObjectMapping (EclipseLink 2.6.5, API Reference)

java.lang.Object
- org.eclipse.persistence.core.mappings.CoreMapping<AttributeAccessor,org.eclipse.persistence.internal.sessions.AbstractSession,org.eclipse.persistence.internal.queries.ContainerPolicy,ClassDescriptor,org.eclipse.persistence.internal.helper.DatabaseField>
- - org.eclipse.persistence.mappings.DatabaseMapping
  - - org.eclipse.persistence.mappings.AggregateMapping

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable, EmbeddableMapping, MapComponentMapping, MapKeyMapping, RelationalMapping
```
public class AggregateObjectMapping
extends AggregateMapping
implements RelationalMapping, MapKeyMapping, EmbeddableMapping
```
Purpose:Two objects can be considered to be related by aggregation if there is a strict 1:1 relationship between the objects. This means that the target (child or owned) object cannot exist without the source (parent) object. In TopLink, it also means the data for the owned object is stored in the same table as the parent.

    If all the fields in the database row for the aggregate object are NULL, then, by default, the mapping will place a null in the appropriate source object (as opposed to an aggregate object filled with nulls). To change this behavior, set the value of this variable to false. Then the mapping will build a new instance of the aggregate object that is filled with nulls and place it in the source object.

protected java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object[]> nestedFieldTranslations
```
    Map of nested attributes that need to apply an override name to their a nested aggregate mapping's database field. Aggregate to source fields map is the existing EclipseLink functionality and works well when all embeddable mappings have unique database fields. This map adds specific attribute to database field override.

    INTERNAL: Return whether all the aggregate fields in the specified row are NULL.
  - allowNull
```
public void allowNull()
```
    PUBLIC: If all the fields in the database row for the aggregate object are NULL, then, by default, the mapping will place a null in the appropriate source object (as opposed to an aggregate object filled with nulls). This behavior can be explicitly set by calling #allowNull(). To change this behavior, call #dontAllowNull(). Then the mapping will build a new instance of the aggregate object that is filled with nulls and place it in the source object. In either situation, when writing, the mapping will place a NULL in all the fields in the database row for the aggregate object. Note: Any aggregate that has a relationship mapping automatically does not allow null.

  - setIsNullAllowed
```
public void setIsNullAllowed(boolean isNullAllowed)
```
    PUBLIC: Configure if all the fields in the database row for the aggregate object are NULL, then, by default, the mapping will place a null in the appropriate source object (as opposed to an aggregate object filled with nulls). To change this behavior, set the value of this variable to false. Then the mapping will build a new instance of the aggregate object that is filled with nulls and place it in the source object. Note: Any aggregate that has a relationship mapping automatically does not allow null.
