Hello,
I'm trying to write a data structure bean to represent some dynamic data not known at compile time. E.g. a user object with some fixed attributes (login, name, ...) and a collection of key/value pairs set a run time. I would like to use this dynamic bean in Seam/Hibernate.
I came up with the following design (Java pseudo code):
@Entity
class BeanProperty {
String propName;
String propValue;
}
@Entity
class BeanUser {
String login;
String name;
@OneToMany
@MapKey(propName)
Map<String, BeanProperty> propertiesMap;
}
Since I'm totally new to this topic I'm not sure wheter this is the way to go. Unfortunatly I could not find any examples about this. So I would be very happy if you could give me some hints and also some example code. Also I would be very happy about some predefined SQL statments to include in the import.sql file in order to get the database filled with some data.
Thanks a lot, Biggles
