NoSqlMetadata

java.lang.Object
- org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metadata.ORMetadata
- - org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.metadata.nosql.NoSqlMetadata

```
public class NoSqlMetadata
extends ORMetadata
```
Defines the metadata for the @EIS annotation for mapping an EISDescriptor. Key notes: - any metadata mapped from XML to this class must be compared in the equals method. - any metadata mapped from XML to this class must be initialized in the initXMLObject method. - when loading from annotations, the constructor accepts the metadata accessor this metadata was loaded from. Used it to look up any 'companion' annotation needed for processing. - methods should be preserved in alphabetical order.
