What is the purpose of custom meta tags? I have seen them at class level and at property level.
Example of Propery level level:
</property>
<property name="name" column="name" type="string">
<meta attribute="Test"/>
</property>
Example of class level
<class name="mypackage.user" table="user">
<meta attribute="Test"/>
......
....
</class>
How does hibernate use this custom values in meta tag?
