[eclipselink-users] Re: dynamic entity example code relationships with s

Hi,

just to build on my question I have continued experimented with these  
and have another question that would love some advice:  inheritance?  
can a dynamic entity inherit attributes and relationships from  
superclass in a standard JOINED fashion?

any advice would be great,

thank you,
