@ExperimentalSpi
public abstract class AbstractRelationDescriptor<S extends Relatable,T extends Relatable>
extends Object
implements RelationDescriptor<S,T>

Relation descriptor, which should be used as a base class for all custom relation descriptors. It is also very important to set-up correct type values (the custom relation is applicable for), as they (along with relation name) define a relation type, and are used for validation, in relation search queries etc.
