ABSTRACT:
A method and system for mapping between relational schema and object schema, wherein the relational schema includes a table having a tiebreaker column. In accordance with the present invention, an object-oriented application program may instantiate a persistent dependent object with one of two or more specific instances that is selected in response to the value of a data element in a tiebreaker column. Alternatively, an object-oriented application program may instantiate a persistent entity object in accordance with one of two or more entity classes that is selected in response to the value of a data element in a tiebreaker column.
