<div class="block">The simplest type of mapping to a database column. The
<code>Basic</code> annotation can be applied to a persistent
property or instance variable of any of the following types: Java
primitive types, wrappers of the primitive types, <code>String</code>,
<code>java.math.BigInteger</code>,
<code>java.math.BigDecimal</code>,
<code>java.util.Date</code>,
<code>java.util.Calendar</code>,
<code>java.sql.Date</code>,
<code>java.sql.Time</code>,
<code>java.sql.Timestamp</code>, <code>byte[]</code>, <code>Byte[]</code>,
<code>char[]</code>, <code>Character[]</code>, enums, and any other type that
implements <code>java.io.Serializable</code>.
<p> The use of the <code>Basic</code> annotation is optional for
persistent fields and properties of these types. If the
<code>Basic</code> annotation is not specified for such a field or
property, the default values of the <code>Basic</code> annotation
will apply.

Example 1:
&#064;Basic
protected String name;
Example 2:
&#064;Basic(fetch=LAZY)
