has anyone else had a problem with references?
i'm wondering if my assumption should be true...
if i marshall an object to XML with has a reference
in it (only an ID to another object), if i unmarshall
that XML to an object will the child object be created
with only that field filled in?
ie.
public class Parent {
private Integer id = null;
private String name = null;
private Child child = null;
// setters, getters
}
public class Child {
private Integer id = null;
private String name = null;
private Parent parent = null;
// setters, getters
}
<class name="Parent" identity="id" key-generator="seqgen">
<map-to xml="parent"/>
<field name="id" type="java.lang.Integer" >
<xml name="id" node="attribute"/>
</field>
<field name="name" type="java.lang.String">
<xml name="name" node="element"/>
</field>
<field name="child" type="Child">
<xml name="child" node="element" reference="true"/>
</field>
</class>
<class name="Child" identity="id" auto-complete="true">
<map-to xml="child"/>
<field name="id" type="java.lang.Integer" >
<xml name="id" node="attribute"/>
</field>
<field name="name" type="java.lang.String" required="true">
<xml name="name" node="element"/>
</field>
<field name="parent" type="Parent">
<xml name="parent" node="attribute" reference="true"/>
</field>
</class>
