[hibernate-dev] Clarification of Attribute/Value bindings

[Gail Badner]

In the new metamodel code, it appears that both "Attribute" and "Value" bindings are modelled using AttributeBinding. The places I've seen references to "Value" bindings (EntityIdentifier, Discriminator) don't necessarily have a domain representation.

I'm working on @IdClass, and this an example where the IdClass itself does not have a representation in the domain model.

I'd like to make some improvements.

Steve, (and anyone else interested) please take a look at https://gist.github.com/981804 and let me know if you see anything inherently wrong with my approach, or if you have some suggestions.

Thanks,
Gail
