Thanks José! But don't they still require you to do the "hibernate-
mapping" xml thing? Isn't this cumbersome for complex object
structures? Or is there a way of being able to play with your object
structure without having to change the hibernate-mapping xml every
time (i.e. a default automatic behaviour for all objects, which also
updates the data-store to reflect object-structure changes in the
code)?

Thanks!
