setsource

public void setsource(@Nullable Object source)

set the configuration source Object for this metadata element.

The exact type of the object will depend on the configuration mechanism used.

getsource

isMergeEnabled

public boolean isMergeEnabled()

Description copied from interface:&nbsp;Mergeable

Is merging enabled for this particular instance?
