| /** |
| * An InstantiationCopyPolicy is used to set an |
| * org.eclipse.persistence.descriptors.copying.InstantiationCopyPolicy on an |
| * Entity. |
| * |
| * InstantiationCopyPolicy is the default CopyPolicy if weaving is not used, |
| * or if property access is used. |
| * |
| * A special CloneCopyPolicy is used if weaving and field access is used. |
| * |
| * An InstantiationCopyPolicy should be specified on an Entity, |
| * MappedSuperclass or Embeddable. |
| * <p> |
| * Example: |
| * <pre><code> |
| * {@literal @}Entity |
| * {@literal @}InstantiationCopyPolicy |
| * public class Employee { |
| * </code></pre> |
