Hello,
I'm using XDoclet to generate my value objects, and I'm having trouble with the compose tags.
The scenario is as follows: I have a Country entity bean, and a State entity bean. A Country can have many states.
In the DB, I have a foreign key on the states table, and the foreign key is setted up as not-null (required by the DB team).
On the Country class, I'm using tags such as:
@ejb.value-object
compose = "test.ejb.StateValue"
compose-name = "StateValue"
When I generate the CMP classes, I get a bunch of methods, such as addState(StateValue v).
I would really like to use the addState method, however that method creates a state, and only after it, it adds it to the states collection on my country bean. This causes the not-null FK to throw an exception.
Is there any workaround for this?
I'd really like to keep using the generated code from XDoclet, and I cannot give up on the not-null FK for now.
Thanks in advance!
