Annotation Type AuditMappedBy

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Target(value={METHOD,FIELD})
public @interface AuditMappedBy

Annotation to specify a "fake" bi-directional relation. Such a relation uses @OneToMany + @JoinColumn on the one side, and @ManyToOne + @Column(insertable=false, updatable=false) on the many side. Then, Envers won't use a join table to audit this relation, but will store changes as in a normal bi-directional relation.

This annotation is experimental and may change in future releases.
