Entity classes

Entity classes have a stereotype of entity. An entity class is essentially an object wrapper for a database table. The attributes of an entity are transformed to columns on the database table. Entities can have various data maintenance operations such as read, insert, modify, remove, readmulti (read multi reads multiple records from a table based on a partial key).

Standard operations such as read or insert operate on a single database table by default.

Entities can have attributes, operations, dependencies, inherits relations, and aggregations. A set of rules is associated with each of these constructs.
