See for example the following :

    MetaStoreFactory<X> factoryX = new MetaStoreFactory<X>( X.class, metaStore, "pentaho" );
    MetaStoreFactory<Y> factoryY = new MetaStoreFactory<Y>( Y.class, metaStore, "pentaho" );
    factoryX.addNameFactory( X.FACTORY_Y, factoryY );

   
MetaStoreFactory<X> factoryX = new MetaStoreFactory<X>( X.class, metaStore, "pentaho" );

   
MetaStoreFactory<Y> factoryY = new MetaStoreFactory<Y>( Y.class, metaStore, "pentaho" );

    factoryX.addNameFactory( X.FACTORY_Y, factoryY );

In this situation, if you call factoryX.saveElement() you will also persist any referenced elements of Y which are annotated as followed in class X:

@MetaStoreAttribute( factoryNameKey = FACTORY_Y, factoryNameReference = true ) 
private List<Y> ys;


//and/or  


@MetaStoreAttribute( factoryNameKey = FACTORY_Y, factoryNameReference = true ) 
private Y y;

The factory is then also used when you are loading elements.

...

@MetaStoreAttribute
private boolean shared;

In this case you can reference this in class A as follows:
