public Interface Value

Known Direct Subinterfaces: org.hibernate.mapping.KeyValue
Known Direct Implementers: org.hibernate.id.ExportableColumn.ValueImpl, org.hibernate.mapping.Collection, org.hibernate.mapping.OneToMany

A value is anything that is persisted by value, instead of by reference. It is essentially a Hibernate Type, together with zero or more columns. Values are wrapped by things with higher level semantics, for example properties, collections, classes.
