Annotation Type InheritInverseConfiguration

@Target(value=METHOD)
 @Retention(value=CLASS)
public @interface InheritInverseConfiguration

Advises the code generator to apply all the Mappings from an inverse mapping method to the annotated method as well. An inverse mapping method is a method which has the annotated method's source type as target type (return type or indicated through a parameter annotated with MappingTarget) and the annotated method's target type as source type.

Any mappings given on the annotated method itself are added to those mappings inherited from the inverse method. In case of a conflict local mappings take precedence over inherited mappings.

If more than one matching inverse method exists, the name of the method to inherit the configuration from must be specified via name()
