Hi, I would to know when I execute a session.evict() on an Object that contains many-to-one relation, if automatically all 'linked' element are also evicted or if I have to apply the evict method to all linked object. In my case, I have a Document element that contains first a self reference on it (parent/child relation) and others linked elements that are stored into separate tables. Here is partially my hibernate mapping.
<class name="Document" table="doc" dynamic-update="true"> <id column="oid" name="oid" type="java.lang.String" unsaved-value="none"> <generator class="assigned"/> </id> <many-to-one name="ebatch" column="batchoid" class="EBatch"/> <set name="children" inverse="true" lazy="true" cascade="all"> <key column="parent"/> <one-to-many class="Document"/> </set> <many-to-one name="parent" column="parent" cascade="all" class="Document"/> <set name="encodings" cascade="all" inverse="true"> <key column="refobjoid"/> <one-to-many class="imtf.ch.atlas.capture.data.Encoding"/> </set> </class> Regards. Yvan PS: In any case this feature should be better documented.
