Hi, another newbie question about JDO.

In my mapping file, I can specify <class>es with simple type <field>s 
successfully. However, I was wondering how to do the following two 
things:

1) Specify that a referenced class (also in the mapping) should 
contribute values to the current row of the table. For example, say I 
have a class called "MonsterHead" that references a class called "Eyes". 
Then I have a table called "Monster". In the mapping, I want to specify 
that both "MonsterHead" and "Eyes" (which is referenced in MonsterHead 
via a get method) contribute to the values in a single row of the 
"Monster" table.

2) Specify that an array of a referenced class (also in the mapping) 
should be inserted into the table. Say I have a class called 
"MonsterHead" that references an array of a class called 
"MonsterFriends". Then I have both a "Monster" table and a 
"MonsterFriends" table. When a "MonsterHead" is put into the database, I 
want all of its friends to be put there too.

Are either of these things possible?

thanks,
jeff
