50 Configuring an Object-Relational Array Mapping

This chapter describes the various components that you must configure in order to use an object-relational array mapping.

Note: To map a collection of aggregate structures, use an object-relational object array mapping (see "Object-Relational Object Array Mapping"). To store information in a separate table from the parent structure's table, use an object-relational nested table mapping (see "Object-Relational Nested Table Mapping").

For more information, see the following:

• "Mapping Creation Overview"

• "Object-Relational Array Mapping"

Table 50-1 lists the configurable options for an object-relational array mapping.
