/**
 * Specifies 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.  If the relationship is
 * bidirectional, the non-owning side must use the mappedBy element of
 * the OneToOne annotation to specify the relationship field or
 * property of the owning side.
 *
 * 

The OneToOne annotation may be used within an * embeddable class to specify a relationship from the embeddable * class to an entity class. If the relationship is bidirectional and * the entity containing the embeddable class is on the owning side of * the relationship, the non-owning side must use the * mappedBy element of the OneToOne * annotation to specify the relationship field or property of the * embeddable class. The dot (".") notation syntax must be used in the * mappedBy element to indicate the relationship attribute within the * embedded attribute. The value of each identifier used with the dot * notation is the name of the respective embedded field or property. * *

 *    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 @MapsId
 *    	EmployeeInfo info;
 *    	...
 *    }
 *
 *    // On EmployeeInfo class:
 *
 *    @Entity
 *    public class EmployeeInfo {
 *    	@Id Integer id;
 *    	...
 *    }
 *
 *
 *    Example 3: One-to-one association from an embeddable class to another entity.
 *
 *    @Entity
 *    public class Employee {
 *       @Id int id;
 *       @Embedded LocationDetails location;
 *       ...
 *    }
 *
 *    @Embeddable
 *    public class LocationDetails {
 *       int officeNumber;
 *       @OneToOne ParkingSpot parkingSpot;
 *       ...
 *    }
 *
 *    @Entity
 *    public class ParkingSpot {
 *       @Id int id;
 *       String garage;
 *       @OneToOne(mappedBy="location.parkingSpot") Employee assignedTo;
 *        ... 
 *    } 
 *
