/**
 * This annotation defines a single-valued association to 
 * another entity that has one-to-one multiplicity. It is not 
 * normally necessary to specify the associated target entity 
 * explicitly since it can usually be inferred from the type 
 * of the object being referenced.
 *
 * 
 *    Example 1: One-to-one association that maps a foreign key column
 *
 *    On Customer class:
 *
 *    @OneToOne(optional=false)
 *    @JoinColumn(
 *    	name="CUSTREC_ID", unique=true, nullable=false, updatable=false)
 *    public CustomerRecord getCustomerRecord() { return customerRecord; }
 *
 *    On CustomerRecord class:
 *
 *    @OneToOne(optional=false, mappedBy="customerRecord")
 *    public Customer getCustomer() { return customer; }
 *
 *    Example 2: One-to-one association that assumes both the source and target share the same primary key values. 
 *
 *    On Employee class:
 *
 *    @Entity
 *    public class Employee {
 *    	@Id Integer id;
 *    
 *    	@OneToOne @PrimaryKeyJoinColumn
 *    	EmployeeInfo info;
 *    	...
 *    }
 *
 *    On EmployeeInfo class:
 *
 *    @Entity
 *    public class EmployeeInfo {
 *    	@Id Integer id;
 *    	...
 *    }
 * 
* * @since Java Persistence 1.0 */ @Target({METHOD, FIELD}) @Retention(RUNTIME) public @interface OneToOne { /** * (Optional) The entity class that is the target of * the association. * *
