Constructor Summary

DotConnector(TableColumn parentColumn, TableColumn childColumn, boolean implied)
Create an edge that logically connects a child column to a parent column.

Method Summary

int	compareTo(Object o)
void	connectToChildTitle()
void	connectToParentDetails() By default a parent edge connects to the column name...this lets you connect it the parent's type column instead (e.g.
void	connectToParentTitle()
boolean	equals(Object other)
TableColumn	getChildColumn()
Table	getChildTable()
TableColumn	getParentColumn()
Table	getParentTable()
int	hashCode()
boolean	isImplied()
boolean	pointsTo(Table possibleParentTable) Returns true if this edge logically "points to" the specified table
String	toString()

Returns:

boolean

isImplied

connectToParentDetails

public void connectToParentDetails()

By default a parent edge connects to the column name...this lets you connect it the parent's type column instead (e.g. for detailed parents) Yes, I need to find a more appropriate name/metaphor for this method....
