Value (hibernate-core JavaDocs)

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Subinterfaces:

KeyValue

All Known Implementing Classes:

Any, Any.KeyValue, Any.MetaValue, Array, Bag, BasicValue, Collection, Component, DependantBasicValue, DependantValue, ExportableColumn.ValueImpl, IdentifierBag, IdentifierCollection, IndexedCollection, List, ManyToOne, Map, OneToMany, OneToOne, PrimitiveArray, Set, SimpleValue, ToOne
```
public interface Value
extends Serializable
```
A value is anything that is persisted by value, instead of by reference. It is essentially a Hibernate Type, together with zero or more columns. Values are wrapped by things with higher level semantics, for example properties, collections, classes.
