/**
 * Specifies a primary key column that is used as a foreign key to
 * join to another table.
 *
 * <p> It is used to join the primary table of an entity subclass 
 * in the {@link InheritanceType#JOINED JOINED} mapping strategy 
 * to the primary table of its superclass; it is used within a 
 * {@link SecondaryTable} annotation to join a secondary table 
 * to a primary table; and it may be used in a {@link OneToOne} 
 * mapping in which the primary key of the referencing entity 
 * is used as a foreign key to the referenced entity. 
 *
 * <p> If no <code>PrimaryKeyJoinColumn</code> annotation is 
 * specified for a subclass in the <code>JOINED</code>
 * mapping strategy, the foreign key columns are assumed 
 * to have the same names as the primary key columns of the 
 * primary table of the superclass.
 *
 * <pre>
 *
 *    Example: Customer and ValuedCustomer subclass
 *
 *    &#064;Entity
 *    &#064;Table(name="CUST")
 *    &#064;Inheritance(strategy=JOINED)
 *    &#064;DiscriminatorValue("CUST")
 *    public class Customer { ... }
