I have some questions about source code.

1. What is difference beetween NormilizedEntityPersister and EntityPersister?
2. Who is resposible for outer join generation (when use_outer_join property is true)?

Thanks!

NormalizedEntitePersister handles <joined-subclass>
We also now have DenormalizedEntityPersister for <union-subclass> ;)

Thanks!

I have read OuterJoinLoader, but cases of disabling outer join not clear to me. :( I'm going to read it again.

Can you in two words describe when does OuterJoinLoader disable outer join fetching mechanism (excluding case of set use_outer_join property to false)?
