The 18.14 section is incomplete; it doesn't address the several use cases that we discussed a couple of months ago. I'm going to update the section as soon as I review the discussion.

Hi,

§18.14
"When contained in a class element:

the named property."


when contained in class or interface elements.

e.g.

//user given interface
interface Animal
{
@Persistent(fieldname="kind2")
int getKind();
}

//jdo implementation generated class
class GeneratedAnimal
{
     int kind2;
     int getKind()
     {
        return kind2;
     }
}

or
---

//user given abstract class
abstract Jedi
{
int jedilevel;
@Persistent(fieldname="jedilevel")
int getLevel();
}

//jdo implementation generated class
class GeneratedJedi
{
     int jedilevel;
     int getLevel()
     {
        return jedilevel;
     }
}

"When contained in a class or interface element:

a named field."
