Never saw a response to this, so maybe it did not make it through.  Any
ideas?

Thanx,

Does castor JDO support the notion of a component attribute, or
dependent attribute?  For example, if I have a MEDICATION table that
has
the concept of a SCHEDULE to which it has a many-to-one relationship
(in
other words the SCHEDULE table is a control-table from which users can
select a code that is associated with a MEDICATION), can I map the two
tables to a single object in java:

class Medication {
    private String medicationId;
    prviate String name;
    private String scheduleId;
    private String scheduleCode;
    ...
}

<mapping>
        <class name="edu.umich.med.careweb.entities.Medication"
identity="medicationId">
                <map-to table="MEDICATION" />
                <field name="medicationId" type="integer">
                        <sql name="MEDICATION_ID" type="numeric"
dirty="ignore" />
                </field>
                <field name="name" type="string">
                        <sql name="NAME " type="varchar" dirty="ignore"
/>
                </field>
                <field name="scheduleId" type="integer">
                        <sql name="SCHEDULE_ID " type="numeric"
dirty="ignore" />
                </field>
                <field name="scheduleCode" type="string">
                        <sql name="SCHEDULE_ID "
                                table="SCHEDULE" column="SCHEDULE_CODE"
/>
                </field>
        </class>

Or something to this effect?  I want to avoid having to create a
dependent object just to support a simple string value.
