Item view mappings represent tabs in the user interface and are often used to override attributes of the related itemMapping or itemView objects.
The itemViewMapping item descriptor is defined as follows in ViewMapping.xml:
<item-descriptor name="itemViewMapping" id-space-names="viewmapping" display-property="name" query-cache-size="40"> <table name="vmap_ivm" type="primary" id-column-name="id"> <property name="id" data-type="string"/> <property name="name"/> <property name="displayName" column-name="display_name"/> <property name="description"/> <property name="view" column-name="view_id" item-type="itemView"/> </table> <!-- attributeValues property --> <table name="vmap_attrval_rel" type="multi" id-column-name="mapper_id" multi-column-name="name"> <property name="attributeValues" column-name="attribute_id" data-type="map" component-item-type="attributeValue" cascade="update,delete"/> </table> <!-- propertyViewMappings (PropertyViewMapping) property --> <table name="vmap_ivm2pvm_rel" type="multi" id-column-name="ivm_id" multi-column-name="name"> <property name="propertyMappings" column-name="pvm_id" data-type="map" component-item-type="propertyViewMapping"/> </table> </item-descriptor>
