/**
 * A BasicMap is used to map an org.eclipse.persistence.mappings.DirectMapMapping, which
 * stores a collection of key-value pairs of simple types (String, Number, Date,
 * etc.). It is used in conjunction with a CollectionTable which stores the key,
 * the value and a foreign key to the source object.
 *
 * @see org.eclipse.persistence.annotations.CollectionTable
 *
 * A converter may be used if the desired object type and the data type do not
 * match. This applied to both the key and value of the map.
