/**
 * OrderCorrection annotation may be specified together with OrderColumn annotation.
 * Its OrderCorrectionType value defines what should be done in case
 * the order list read from the data base is invalid
 * (has nulls, duplicates, negative values, values greater/equal to list size -
 * the only valid order list of n elements is: {0, 1,..., n-1}).
 *
 * If the annotation is not specified than OrderCorrectionValue.READ_WRITE used.
