  Description     : Hibernate Annotations Java library
 Hibernate, like all other object/relational mapping tools, requires
 metadata that governs the transformation of data from one
 representation to the other (and vice versa). As an option, you can now
 use JDK 5.0 annotations for object/relational mapping with Hibernate
 3.2. You can use annotations in addition to or as a replacement of XML
 mapping metadata.
 .
 The Hibernate Annotations package includes:
  - Standardized Java Persistence and EJB 3.0 (JSR 220)
    object/relational mapping annotations
  - Hibernate-specific extension annotations for performance
    optimization and special mappings
 .
 You can use Hibernate extension annotations on top of standardized Java
 Persistence annotations to utilize all native Hibernate features.
 .
 This package contains common code for various hibernate packages.
