<P>
Collection of generic utility functions for extracting persistence related
metadata from user specified metadata available in various source
environment.
<br>
Persistence metadata needs to be acquired from different sources such as
annotated source code, compiled class files, XML descriptors or combinations
thereof under different invocation and configuration context.
<br>
Specific implementation of this interface is distinguished by the nature of
the source and the representation available for type system in the source.
