+Override Mappings With Annotations
+----------------------------------
+
+Sometimes there is a need to persist entities but override all or part of the
+mapping metadata. Sometimes also the mapping to override comes from entities
+using traits where the traits have mapping metadata.
+This tutorial explains how to override mapping metadata,
+i.e. attributes and associations metadata in particular. The example here shows
+the overriding of a class that uses a trait but is similar when extending a base
+class as shown at the end of this tutorial.
+
+Suppose we have a class ExampleEntityWithOverride. This class uses trait ExampleTrait:
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+    <?php
+    /**
+     * @Entity
+     *
+     * @AttributeOverrides({
+     *      @AttributeOverride(name="foo",
+     *          column=@Column(
+     *              name     = "foo_overridden",
+     *              type     = "integer",
+     *              length   = 140,
+     *              nullable = false,
+     *              unique   = false
+     *          )
+     *      )
+     * })
+     *
+     * @AssociationOverrides({
+     *      @AssociationOverride(name="bar",
+     *          joinColumns=@JoinColumn(
+     *              name="example_entity_overridden_bar_id", referencedColumnName="id"
+     *          )
+     *      )
+     * })
+     */
+    class ExampleEntityWithOverride
+    {
+        use ExampleTrait;
+    }
+
+    /**
+     * @Entity
+     */
+    class Bar
+    {
+        /** @Id @Column(type="string") */
+        private $id;
+    }
+
+The docblock is showing metadata override of the attribute and association type. It
+basically changes the names of the columns mapped for a property ``foo`` and for
+the association ``bar`` which relates to Bar class shown above. Here is the trait
+which has mapping metadata that is overridden by the annotation above:
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+    /**
+     * Trait class
+     */
+    trait ExampleTrait
+    {
+        /** @Id @Column(type="string") */
+        private $id;
+
+        /**
+         * @Column(name="trait_foo", type="integer", length=100, nullable=true, unique=true)
+         */
+        protected $foo;
+
+        /**
+         * @OneToOne(targetEntity="Bar", cascade={"persist", "merge"})
+         * @JoinColumn(name="example_trait_bar_id", referencedColumnName="id")
+         */
+        protected $bar;
+    }
+
+The case for just extending a class would be just the same but:
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+    class ExampleEntityWithOverride extends BaseEntityWithSomeMapping
+    {
+        // ...
+    }
