Interface PersistingElementOverFederatedTable

public interface PersistingElementOverFederatedTable

Such kind of persisting elements are those that were annotated with Persisting.federated() with a mode different from FederatedMode.NONE. Unlike other persisting elements, those elements can be located in more than one table. Actual table can be the table for other elements, or any other table with the same name postfixed with a qualifier. In case this qualifier is not known, getTablePostfix() is called so that it is determined ; as such this method must be implemented by such annotated classes. In case an inconsistency is found, an exception is thrown ; implement PersistingElementOverFederatedTableWithMerge inorder for those inconsistencies to be repaired.
