Annotation Type TypeName

@Target(value=TYPE)
 @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
public @interface TypeName

Use TypeName annotation to give a distinctive type name for your Entities and ValueObjects. This name will be used everywhere by JaVers, instead of fully-qualified class name.

TypeName is recommended if you are using JaversRepository, because it gives you freedom of refactoring your package and class names.

Usage example:

 @TypeName("Person")
 class Person {
     @Id
     private int id;
     private String name;
 }
 

TypeName is an equivalent for org.springframework.data.annotation.TypeAlias from Spring Data.
