> In my GolfHandicapManager system, I have a domain object called Course.  I

> 1 is Par 4 and Handicap 7, Hole 2 is Par 5 and Handicap 14 etc).  I have the

> Option 1 - Use List or Primitive-Arrays
> ==============================
> <list name="ParAndHandicaps" lazy="false" table="PAR_AND_HANDICAP"
>      <key column="COURSE_ID"/>
>     <index column="HOLE_NUM"/>
> </list>
>
> Table definition
> ============
> COURSE (ROW_ID, NAME)
> PAR_AND_HANDICAP (ROW_ID, COURSE_ID, HOLE_NUM, PAR, HANDICAP)
>
> Pros - Mapping is pretty straight forward
> Cons - too normalized:-)  I would ideally like to have the pars and
> handicap on the same table as course.  Makes it easier to understand the
> table etc.
>
> Option 2 - Create additional properties in Course
> ====================================
> Table Definition
> COURSE (ROW_ID, NAME, HOLE1_PAR, HOLE1_HANDICAP .... HOLE18_PAR,
> HOLE18_HANDICAP)
>
> Pros - All the information about the couse is in the same table
> Cons - Just does not feel correct :-), index operation is not possible.
>
> Since I know that there are exactly 18 holes in a course (I know that I
> have to sub-class a 9 hole couse too...), is there a way to map all the
> elements of the List on the parent table itself?
>
> Any thought on how to map it correctly?
