public abstract class Relation
A Relation
represents the basic entity of a relational
database. Examples of relations include tables and views.
A Relation contains a list of Column
s and a list of
Constraint
s on the values for the columns in the Relation.
Column and Constraint instances are managed by Relation instances; making
a copy of a Relation imples making a copy of each Column and Constraint
contained within the Relation.
