Interface PersistentPropertyCharacteristics

@API(status=STABLE,
     since="6.3.7")
public interface PersistentPropertyCharacteristics

The characteristics of a Neo4jPersistentProperty can diverge from what is by default derived from the annotated classes. Diverging characteristics are requested by the Neo4jMappingContext prior to creating a persistent property. Additional providers of characteristics may be registered with the mapping context.
