public interface BasicPluralJavaType<T>
extends Serializable

Descriptor for a basic plural Java type. A basic plural type represents a type, that is mapped to a single column instead of multiple rows. This is used for array or collection types, that are backed by e.g. SQL array or JSON/XML DDL types.

The interface can be implemented by a plural java type e.g. BasicCollectionJavaType and provides access to the element java type, as well as a hook to resolve the BasicType based on the element BasicType, in order to gain enough information to implement storage and retrieval of the composite data type via JDBC.
