Parameters

mappingSource

The mapping source to be used with the mapping.

The value of this parameter cannot be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

mapping

The mapping being defined.

The value of this parameter cannot be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

linkingTarget

The linking target to be set for the mapping.

The value of this parameter cannot be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

mappingTags

The mapping tags to be attached to this mapping.

The value of this parameter cannot be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

The method attempts to find an equivalent mapping source that already exists in the mapper, and if found, uses it. Otherwise, the new mapping source is added to mapping sources of the mapper.
