      String columnname=oldEntry.getName();
      if (expression != null) {
        oldMappingMap.put(columnname,expression);
      }
    }
    List<IMetadataColumn> columns=metadataTable.getListColumns();
    if (columns != null) {
      for (      IMetadataColumn metadataColumn : columns) {
        ExternalMapperTableEntry tableEntry=new ExternalMapperTableEntry();
