The entity-mappings element is the root element of a mapping file. It contains the following four types of elements: 1. The persistence-unit-metadata element contains metadata for the entire persistence unit. It is undefined if this element occurs in multiple mapping files within the same persistence unit. 2. The package, schema, catalog and access elements apply to all of the entity, mapped-superclass and embeddable elements defined in the same file in which they occur. 3. The sequence-generator, table-generator, converter, named-query, named-native-query, named-stored-procedure-query, and sql-result-set-mapping elements are global to the persistence unit. It is undefined to have more than one sequence-generator or table-generator of the same name in the same or different mapping files in a persistence unit. It is undefined to have more than one named-query, named-native-query, sql-result-set-mapping, or named-stored-procedure-query of the same name in the same or different mapping files in a persistence unit. It is also undefined to have more than one converter for the same target type in the same or different mapping files in a persistence unit. 4. The entity, mapped-superclass and embeddable elements each define the mapping information for a managed persistent class. The mapping information contained in these elements may be complete or it may be partial.
