# Model

### New annotations 

* **@JoinEntity**  (for entity) : to explicitly define a 'join entity' (for ORM)
* **@Cascade** (for link) : for ORM cascade management (MERGE, REMOVE, etc)
* **@OrphanRemoval** (for link) : for ORM like JPA, Doctrine, etc

### Modified annotations

* **@AutoIncremented** : this annotation is now just a shortcut for 'GeneratedValue(IDENTITY)'
* **@GeneratedValue** : the parameters are different and simpler
