I am trying to model a relationship for this type of table:
LINK_TABLE
PK ID Unique ID row identifier
FK TABLE_NAME Some Table in the Schema
FK TABLE_ID Unique ID for row in table name in TABLE_NAME
ATTRIBUTES Variety of attributes like CREATION_DATE etc.
Since the foreign key is a combination key made up of TABLE_NAME and TABLE_ID where TABLE_ID is a column but TABLE_NAME is a table in the catalog, I can't figure out how to model this for CMR.
Any advice would be appreciated.
I decided to just create a findbyapplicationforeignkeys(tablename, tableid) for this entity bean and I make sure that any other entity bean that may have associated records in this table calls the findby method.
