A jdbc.mapping option specifies a mapping policy for XML-relational mapping.
The jdbc.mapping option takes one of the following values as a parameter:
The default configuration is direct
.
Direct mapping means that all slots are mapped to table columns directly.
Index mapping means that slots which are mapped naturally are mapped to table columns.
The jdbc.mapping option generates no additional classes. The jdbc.mapping option just modified the behavior of Relaxer Table Objects.
The jdbc.mapping option adds no additional methods to Relaxer objects.
List 12.4.3.1[jdbcMapping.rng] is a sample schema for the jdbc.mapping option.

Execution of Relaxer with the jdbc.mapping option is as follows:
$ relaxer -jdbc -jdbc.mapping:direct jdbcMapping.rng
Because the default value of the jdbc.mapping option is true, execution of Relaxer as shown below has the same effect.
$ relaxer -jdbc jdbcMapping.rng
As a result, Relaxer generates 13 files:
List 12.4.3.1.1[account.ddl] is a DDL for the schema.
CREATE TABLE "account" ( "accountNo" VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL, "balance" INTEGER NOT NULL, "owner" VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL, "address" VARCHAR(128) NOT NULL, "address_zip" VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL, "phone" VARCHAR(512) )
Execution of Relaxer with the jdbc.mapping option is as follows:
$ relaxer -jdbc -jdbc.mapping:index jdbcMapping.rng
Because the default value of the jdbc.mapping option is true, execution of Relaxer shown below has the same effect.
$ relaxer -jdbc jdbcMapping.rng
As a result, Relaxer generates 13 files:
List 12.4.3.2.1[account.ddl] is a DDL for the schema.
CREATE TABLE "account" ( "accountNo" VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL, "balance" INTEGER NOT NULL, "owner" VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL, "address" VARCHAR(128) NOT NULL, "address_zip" VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL, "document" VARCHAR(8192) NOT NULL )
