Either Set or bag could be faster, depending upon the situation. Neither require an <index> column. Hibernate bags are actually java.util.Lists because the java collections framework has no Bag.
jiesheng zhang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Hibernate] set, bag and list eforge.net 30/01/03 01:00 PM I have a collection of thing. I do not care whether there is duplication or not. I can use Set to prohibit duplication. I can also use list and bag. If I use Set rather than list/bag, I think the performance is not so good as it is for list/bag, since set has to limit duplication. I noticed that <index> tag is required for list. But if I used linked list, I do not care about index. Can I omit the <index> tag? Therefore I think bag is a good choice for my implementation: no index tag requirement and no performance penalty from set. However where the bag is declared? I looked through java.util.*. I did not find it. Thanks jason __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
