/**
* The secondary index for an entity class and a secondary key.
*
* <p>{@code SecondaryIndex} objects are thread-safe.  Multiple threads may
* safely call the methods of a shared {@code SecondaryIndex} object.</p>
*
* <p>{@code SecondaryIndex} implements {@link EntityIndex} to map the
* secondary key type (SK) to the entity type (E).  In other words, entities
* are accessed by secondary key values.</p>
*
* <p>The {@link SecondaryKey} annotation may be used to define a secondary key
* as shown in the following example.</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_ONE)}
*     String department;
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <p>Before obtaining a {@code SecondaryIndex}, the {@link PrimaryIndex} must
* be obtained for the entity class.  To obtain the {@code SecondaryIndex} call
* {@link EntityStore#getSecondaryIndex EntityStore.getSecondaryIndex}, passing
* the primary index, the secondary key class and the secondary key name.  For
* example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* EntityStore store = new EntityStore(...);
*
* {@code PrimaryIndex<Long, Employee>} primaryIndex =
*     store.getPrimaryIndex(Long.class, Employee.class);
*
* {@code SecondaryIndex<String, Long, Employee>} secondaryIndex =
*     store.getSecondaryIndex(primaryIndex, String.class, "department");</pre>
*
* <p>Since {@code SecondaryIndex} implements the {@link EntityIndex}
* interface, it shares the common index methods for retrieving and deleting
* entities, opening cursors and using transactions.  See {@link EntityIndex}
* for more information on these topics.</p>
*
* <p>{@code SecondaryIndex} does <em>not</em> provide methods for inserting
* and updating entities.  That must be done using the {@link
* PrimaryIndex}.</p>
*
* <p>Note that a {@code SecondaryIndex} has three type parameters {@code <SK,
* PK, E>} or in the example {@code <String, Long, Employee>} while a {@link
* PrimaryIndex} has only two type parameters {@code <PK, E>} or {@code <Long,
* Employee>}.  This is because a {@code SecondaryIndex} has an extra level of
* mapping:  It maps from secondary key to primary key, and then from primary
* key to entity.  For example, consider this entity:</p>
*
* <p><table class="code" border="1">
*   <tr><th>ID</th><th>Department</th><th>Name</th></tr>
*   <tr><td>1</td><td>Engineering</td><td>Jane Smith</td></tr>
* </table></p>
*
* <p>The {@link PrimaryIndex} maps from id directly to the entity, or from
* primary key 1 to the "Jane Smith" entity in the example.  The {@code
* SecondaryIndex} maps from department to id, or from secondary key
* "Engineering" to primary key 1 in the example, and then uses the {@code
* PrimaryIndex} to map from the primary key to the entity.</p>
*
* <p>Because of this extra type parameter and extra level of mapping, a {@code
* SecondaryIndex} can provide more than one mapping, or view, of the entities
* in the primary index.  The main mapping of a {@code SecondaryIndex} is to
* map from secondary key (SK) to entity (E), or in the example, from the
* String department key to the Employee entity.  The {@code SecondaryIndex}
* itself, by implementing {@code EntityIndex<SK, E>}, provides this
* mapping.</p>
*
* <p>The second mapping provided by {@code SecondaryIndex} is from secondary
* key (SK) to primary key (PK), or in the example, from the String department
* key to the Long id key.  The {@link #keysIndex} method provides this
* mapping.  When accessing the keys index, the primary key is returned rather
* than the entity.  When only the primary key is needed and not the entire
* entity, using the keys index is less expensive than using the secondary
* index because the primary index does not have to be accessed.</p>
*
* <p>The third mapping provided by {@code SecondaryIndex} is from primary key
* (PK) to entity (E), for the subset of entities having a given secondary key
* (SK).  This mapping is provided by the {@link #subIndex} method.  A
* sub-index is convenient when you are interested in working with the subset
* of entities having a particular secondary key value, for example, all
* employees in a given department.</p>
*
* <p>All three mappings, along with the mapping provided by the {@link
* PrimaryIndex}, are shown using example data in the {@link EntityIndex}
* interface documentation.  See {@link EntityIndex} for more information.</p>
*
* <p>Note that when using an index, keys and values are stored and retrieved
* by value not by reference.  In other words, if an entity object is stored
* and then retrieved, or retrieved twice, each object will be a separate
* instance.  For example, in the code below the assertion will always
* fail.</p>
* <pre class="code">
* MyKey key = ...;
* MyEntity entity1 = index.get(key);
* MyEntity entity2 = index.get(key);
* assert entity1 == entity2; // always fails!
* </pre>
*
* <h3>One-to-One Relationships</h3>
*
* <p>A {@link Relationship#ONE_TO_ONE ONE_TO_ONE} relationship, although less
* common than other types of relationships, is the simplest type of
* relationship.  A single entity is related to a single secondary key value.
* For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=ONE_TO_ONE)}
*     String ssn;
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }
*
* {@code SecondaryIndex<String, Long, Employee>} employeeBySsn =
*     store.getSecondaryIndex(primaryIndex, String.class, "ssn");</pre>
*
* <p>With a {@link Relationship#ONE_TO_ONE ONE_TO_ONE} relationship, the
* secondary key must be unique; in other words, no two entities may have the
* same secondary key value.  If an attempt is made to store an entity having
* the same secondary key value as another existing entity, a {@link
* DatabaseException} will be thrown.</p>
*
* <p>Because the secondary key is unique, it is useful to lookup entities by
* secondary key using {@link EntityIndex#get}.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* Employee employee = employeeBySsn.get(mySsn);</pre>
*
* <h3>Many-to-One Relationships</h3>
*
* <p>A {@link Relationship#MANY_TO_ONE MANY_TO_ONE} relationship is the most
* common type of relationship.  One or more entities is related to a single
* secondary key value.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_ONE)}
*     String department;
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }
*
* {@code SecondaryIndex<String, Long, Employee>} employeeByDepartment =
*     store.getSecondaryIndex(primaryIndex, String.class, "department");</pre>
*
* <p>With a {@link Relationship#MANY_TO_ONE MANY_TO_ONE} relationship, the
* secondary key is not required to be unique; in other words, more than one
* entity may have the same secondary key value.  In this example, more than
* one employee may belong to the same department.</p>
*
* <p>The most convenient way to access the employees in a given department is
* by using a sub-index.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@code EntityIndex<Long, Entity>} subIndex = employeeByDepartment.subIndex(myDept);
* {@code EntityCursor<Employee>} cursor = subIndex.entities();
* try {
*     for (Employee entity : cursor) {
*         // Do something with the entity...
*     }
* } finally {
*     cursor.close();
* }</pre>
*
* <h3>One-to-Many Relationships</h3>
*
* <p>In a {@link Relationship#ONE_TO_MANY ONE_TO_MANY} relationship, a single
* entity is related to one or more secondary key values.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=ONE_TO_MANY)}
*     {@literal Set<String> emailAddresses = new HashSet<String>;}
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }
*
* {@code SecondaryIndex<String, Long, Employee>} employeeByEmail =
*     store.getSecondaryIndex(primaryIndex, String.class, "emailAddresses");</pre>
*
* <p>With a {@link Relationship#ONE_TO_MANY ONE_TO_MANY} relationship, the
* secondary key must be unique; in other words, no two entities may have the
* same secondary key value.  In this example, no two employees may have the
* same email address.  If an attempt is made to store an entity having the
* same secondary key value as another existing entity, a {@link
* DatabaseException} will be thrown.</p>
*
* <p>Because the secondary key is unique, it is useful to lookup entities by
* secondary key using {@link EntityIndex#get}.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* Employee employee = employeeByEmail.get(myEmailAddress);</pre>
*
* <p>The secondary key field for a {@link Relationship#ONE_TO_MANY
* ONE_TO_MANY} relationship must be an array or collection type.  To access
* the email addresses of an employee, simply access the collection field
* directly.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* Employee employee = primaryIndex.get(1); // Get the entity by primary key
* employee.emailAddresses.add(myNewEmail); // Add an email address
* primaryIndex.putNoReturn(1, employee);   // Update the entity</pre>
*
* <h3>Many-to-Many Relationships</h3>
*
* <p>In a {@link Relationship#MANY_TO_MANY MANY_TO_MANY} relationship, one
* or more entities is related to one or more secondary key values.  For
* example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_MANY)}
*     {@literal Set<String> organizations = new HashSet<String>;}
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }
*
* {@code SecondaryIndex<String, Long, Employee>} employeeByOrganization =
*     store.getSecondaryIndex(primaryIndex, String.class, "organizations");</pre>
*
* <p>With a {@link Relationship#MANY_TO_MANY MANY_TO_MANY} relationship, the
* secondary key is not required to be unique; in other words, more than one
* entity may have the same secondary key value.  In this example, more than
* one employee may belong to the same organization.</p>
*
* <p>The most convenient way to access the employees in a given organization
* is by using a sub-index.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@code EntityIndex<Long, Entity>} subIndex = employeeByOrganization.subIndex(myOrg);
* {@code EntityCursor<Employee>} cursor = subIndex.entities();
* try {
*     for (Employee entity : cursor) {
*         // Do something with the entity...
*     }
* } finally {
*     cursor.close();
* }</pre>
*
* <p>The secondary key field for a {@link Relationship#MANY_TO_MANY
* MANY_TO_MANY} relationship must be an array or collection type.  To access
* the organizations of an employee, simply access the collection field
* directly.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* Employee employee = primaryIndex.get(1); // Get the entity by primary key
* employee.organizations.remove(myOldOrg); // Remove an organization
* primaryIndex.putNoReturn(1, employee);   // Update the entity</pre>
*
* <h3>Foreign Key Constraints for Related Entities</h3>
*
* <p>In all the examples above the secondary key is treated only as a simple
* value, such as a {@code String} department field.  In many cases, that is
* sufficient.  But in other cases, you may wish to constrain the secondary
* keys of one entity class to be valid primary keys of another entity
* class.  For example, a Department entity may also be defined:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Department {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     String name;
*
*     String missionStatement;
*
*     private Department() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <p>You may wish to constrain the department field values of the Employee
* class in the examples above to be valid primary keys of the Department
* entity class.  In other words, you may wish to ensure that the department
* field of an Employee will always refer to a valid Department entity.</p>
*
* <p>You can implement this constraint yourself by validating the department
* field before you store an Employee.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@code PrimaryIndex<String, Department>} departmentIndex =
*     store.getPrimaryIndex(String.class, Department.class);
*
* void storeEmployee(Employee employee) throws DatabaseException {
*     if (departmentIndex.contains(employee.department)) {
*         primaryIndex.putNoReturn(employee);
*     } else {
*         throw new IllegalArgumentException("Department does not exist: " +
*                                            employee.department);
*     }
* }</pre>
*
* <p>Or, instead you could define the Employee department field as a foreign
* key, and this validation will be done for you when you attempt to store the
* Employee entity.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_ONE, relatedEntity=Department.class)}
*     String department;
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <p>The {@code relatedEntity=Department.class} above defines the department
* field as a foreign key that refers to a Department entity.  Whenever a
* Employee entity is stored, its department field value will be checked to
* ensure that a Department entity exists with that value as its primary key.
* If no such Department entity exists, then a {@link DatabaseException} is
* thrown, causing the transaction to be aborted (assuming that transactions
* are used).</p>
*
* <p>This begs the question:  What happens when a Department entity is deleted
* while one or more Employee entities have department fields that refer to
* the deleted department's primary key?  If the department were allowed to be
* deleted, the foreign key constraint for the Employee department field would
* be violated, because the Employee department field would refer to a
* department that does not exist.</p>
*
* <p>By default, when this situation arises the system does not allow the
* department to be deleted.  Instead, a {@link DatabaseException} is thrown,
* causing the transaction to be aborted.  In this case, in order to delete a
* department, the department field of all Employee entities must first be
* updated to refer to a different existing department, or set to null.  This
* is the responsibility of the application.</p>
*
* <p>There are two additional ways of handling deletion of a Department
* entity.  These alternatives are configured using the {@link
* SecondaryKey#onRelatedEntityDelete} annotation property.  Setting this
* property to {@link DeleteAction#NULLIFY} causes the Employee department
* field to be automatically set to null when the department they refer to is
* deleted.  This may or may not be desirable, depending on application
* policies.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@code @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_ONE, relatedEntity=Department.class,
*                                       onRelatedEntityDelete=NULLIFY)}
*     String department;
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <p>The {@link DeleteAction#CASCADE} value, on the other hand, causes the
* Employee entities to be automatically deleted when the department they refer
* to is deleted.  This is probably not desirable in this particular example,
* but is useful for parent-child relationships.  For example:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Order {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     String description;
*
*     private Order() {}
* }
*
* {@literal @Entity}
* class OrderItem {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@code @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_ONE, relatedEntity=Order.class,
*                                       onRelatedEntityDelete=CASCADE)}
*     long orderId;
*
*     String description;
*
*     private OrderItem() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <p>The OrderItem orderId field refers to its "parent" Order entity.  When an
* Order entity is deleted, it may be useful to automatically delete its
* "child" OrderItem entities.</p>
*
* <p>For more information, see {@link SecondaryKey#onRelatedEntityDelete}.</p>
*
* <h3>One-to-Many versus Many-to-One for Related Entities</h3>
*
* <p>When there is a conceptual Many-to-One relationship such as Employee to
* Department as illustrated in the examples above, the relationship may be
* implemented either as Many-to-One in the Employee class or as One-to-Many in
* the Department class.</p>
*
* <p>Here is the Many-to-One approach.</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_ONE, relatedEntity=Department.class)}
*     String department;
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }
*
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Department {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     String name;
*
*     String missionStatement;
*
*     private Department() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <p>And here is the One-to-Many approach.</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }
*
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Department {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     String name;
*
*     String missionStatement;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=ONE_TO_MANY, relatedEntity=Employee.class)}
*     {@literal Set<Long> employees = new HashSet<Long>;}
*
*     private Department() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <p>Which approach is best?  The Many-to-One approach better handles large
* number of entities on the to-Many side of the relationship because it
* doesn't store a collection of keys as an entity field.  With Many-to-One a
* Btree is used to store the collection of keys and the Btree can easily
* handle very large numbers of keys.  With One-to-Many, each time a related
* key is added or removed the entity on the One side of the relationship,
* along with the complete collection of related keys, must be updated.
* Therefore, if large numbers of keys may be stored per relationship,
* Many-to-One is recommended.</p>
*
* <p>If the number of entities per relationship is not a concern, then you may
* wish to choose the approach that is most natural in your application data
* model.  For example, if you think of a Department as containing employees
* and you wish to modify the Department object each time an employee is added
* or removed, then you may wish to store a collection of Employee keys in the
* Department object (One-to-Many).</p>
*
* <p>Note that if you have a One-to-Many relationship and there is no related
* entity, then you don't have a choice -- you have to use One-to-Many because
* there is no entity on the to-Many side of the relationship where a
* Many-to-One key could be defined.  An example is the Employee to email
* addresses relationship discussed above:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=ONE_TO_MANY)}
*     {@literal Set<String> emailAddresses = new HashSet<String>;}
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <p>For sake of argument imagine that each employee has thousands of email
* addresses and employees frequently add and remove email addresses.  To
* avoid the potential performance problems associated with updating the
* Employee entity every time an email address is added or removed, you could
* create an EmployeeEmailAddress entity and use a Many-to-One relationship as
* shown below:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }
*
* {@literal @Entity}
* class EmployeeEmailAddress {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     String emailAddress;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_ONE, relatedEntity=Employee.class)}
*     long employeeId;
*
*     private EmployeeEmailAddress() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <h3>Key Placement with Many-to-Many for Related Entities</h3>
*
* <p>As discussed in the section above, one drawback of a to-Many relationship
* (One-to-Many was discussed above and Many-to-Many is discussed here) is that
* it requires storing a collection of keys in an entity.  Each time a key is
* added or removed, the containing entity must be updated.  This has potential
* performance problems when there are large numbers of entities on the to-Many
* side of the relationship, in other words, when there are large numbers of
* keys in each secondary key field collection.</p>
*
* <p>If you have a Many-to-Many relationship with a reasonably small number of
* entities on one side of the relationship and a large number of entities on
* the other side, you can avoid the potential performance problems by defining
* the secondary key field on the side with a small number of entities.</p>
*
* <p>For example, in an Employee-to-Organization relationship, the number of
* organizations per employee will normally be reasonably small but the number
* of employees per organization may be very large.  Therefore, to avoid
* potential performance problems, the secondary key field should be defined in
* the Employee class as shown below.</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Employee {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_MANY, relatedEntity=Organization.class)}
*     {@literal Set<String> organizations = new HashSet<String>;}
*
*     String name;
*
*     private Employee() {}
* }
*
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Organization {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     String name;
*
*     String description;
* }</pre>
*
* <p>If instead a {@code Set<Long> members} key had been defined in the
* Organization class, this set could potentially have a large number of
* elements and performance problems could result.</p>
*
* <h3>Many-to-Many Versus a Relationship Entity</h3>
*
* <p>If you have a Many-to-Many relationship with a large number of entities
* on <em>both</em> sides of the relationship, you can avoid the potential
* performance problems by using a <em>relationship entity</em>.  A
* relationship entity defines the relationship between two other entities
* using two Many-to-One relationships.</p>
*
* <p>Imagine a relationship between cars and trucks indicating whenever a
* particular truck was passed on the road by a particular car.  A given car
* may pass a large number of trucks and a given truck may be passed by a large
* number of cars.  First look at a Many-to-Many relationship between these two
* entities:</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Car {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     String licenseNumber;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_MANY, relatedEntity=Truck.class)}
*     {@literal Set<String> trucksPassed = new HashSet<String>;}
*
*     String color;
*
*     private Car() {}
* }
*
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Truck {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     String licenseNumber;
*
*     int tons;
*
*     private Truck() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <p>With the Many-to-Many approach above, the {@code trucksPassed} set could
* potentially have a large number of elements and performance problems could
* result.</p>
*
* <p>To apply the relationship entity approach we define a new entity class
* named CarPassedTruck representing a single truck passed by a single car.  We
* remove the secondary key from the Car class and use two secondary keys in
* the CarPassedTruck class instead.</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Car {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     String licenseNumber;
*
*     String color;
*
*     private Car() {}
* }
*
* {@literal @Entity}
* class Truck {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     String licenseNumber;
*
*     int tons;
*
*     private Truck() {}
* }
*
* {@literal @Entity}
* class CarPassedTruck {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_ONE, relatedEntity=Car.class)}
*     String carLicense;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_ONE, relatedEntity=Truck.class)}
*     String truckLicense;
*
*     private CarPassedTruck() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <p>The CarPassedTruck entity can be used to access the relationship by car
* license or by truck license.</p>
*
* <p>You may use the relationship entity approach because of the potential
* performance problems mentioned above.  Or, you may choose to use this
* approach in order to store other information about the relationship.  For
* example, if for each car that passes a truck you wish to record how much
* faster the car was going than the truck, then a relationship entity is the
* logical place to store that property.  In the example below the
* speedDifference property is added to the CarPassedTruck class.</p>
*
* <pre class="code">
* {@literal @Entity}
* class CarPassedTruck {
*
*     {@literal @PrimaryKey}
*     long id;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_ONE, relatedEntity=Car.class)}
*     String carLicense;
*
*     {@literal @SecondaryKey(relate=MANY_TO_ONE, relatedEntity=Truck.class)}
*     String truckLicense;
*
*     int speedDifference;
*
*     private CarPassedTruck() {}
* }</pre>
*
* <p>Be aware that the relationship entity approach adds overhead compared to
* Many-to-Many.  There is one additional entity and one additional secondary
* key.  These factors should be weighed against its advantages and the
* relevant application access patterns should be considered.</p>
