Hi,
I am using the JBoss Hibernate plug in for eclipse and attempting to reverse engineer my pojos from a mysql database. I have been able to do this with some success and i do see that the one-to-many and many-to-many properties are definied in the hbm files. What is happening however, is if i have pojo that represents a one to many relationship, and i make changes to both tables, only the single 'one' table is updated.
For example, let's say i have a Person and a PersonAddress table that contain foreign key relationships. When i reverse engineer the Pojos from this database, what is created is a Person pojo which also contains a Set of PersonAddress:
public Set<PersonAddress> getPersonAddresses() {
return this.personAddresses;
}
public void setPersonAddresses(Set<PersonAddress> personAddresses) {
this.personAddresses = personAddresses;
}
public void setPersonAddresses(Set<PersonAddress> personAddresses) {
this.personAddresses = personAddresses;
}
If i update the Person.name and use hibernate to save that change, all works well.
If i update the name and also add a new address however, the name changes, but the address is not added to the PersonAddress table.
I am wondering if need to individually add the address first or if the above scenario should just work if i create a new PersonAddress, add it to the Person object using the setPersonAddresses method, and simply updating the Person object.
thanks much any help regarding this,
Mark
