Hi Thomas,
Thank you for your answer, here is my XML ClassDescriptor :
--------------
<class-descriptor class="company.business.Division" table="Division">
<field-descriptor name="id" column="id" jdbc-type="INTEGER"
primarykey="true" autoincrement="true"/>
<field-descriptor name="name" column="name" jdbc-type="VARCHAR"/>
<field-descriptor name="companyId" column="companyId" jdbc-type="INTEGER"/>
<field-descriptor name="superDivisionId" column="superDivisionId"
jdbc-type="INTEGER"/>
<reference-descriptor name="company" class-ref="company.business.Company">
<foreignkey field-ref="companyId"/>
</reference-descriptor>
<reference-descriptor name="superDivision"
class-ref="company.business.Division">
<foreignkey field-ref="superDivisionId"/>
</reference-descriptor>
<collection-descriptor name="subDivisions"
element-class-ref="company.business.Division"
orderby="id" sort="DESC">
<inverse-foreignkey field-ref="superDivisionId"/>
</collection-descriptor>
</class-descriptor>
<class-descriptor class="company.business.Building" table="Building">
<field-descriptor name="id" column="id" jdbc-type="INTEGER"
primarykey="true" autoincrement="true"/>
<field-descriptor name="name" column="name" jdbc-type="VARCHAR"/>
<collection-descriptor name="companies"
element-class-ref="company.business.Company"
indirection-table="Building_Company">
<fk-pointing-to-this-class column="buildingId"/>
<fk-pointing-to-element-class column="companyId"/>
</collection-descriptor>
</class-descriptor>
<class-descriptor class="company.business.Company" table="Company">
<field-descriptor name="id" column="id" jdbc-type="INTEGER"
primarykey="true" autoincrement="true"/>
<field-descriptor name="name" column="name" jdbc-type="VARCHAR"/>
<collection-descriptor name="divisions"
element-class-ref="company.business.Division">
<inverse-foreignkey field-ref="companyId"/>
</collection-descriptor>
<collection-descriptor name="buildings"
element-class-ref="company.business.Building"
indirection-table="Building_Company">
<fk-pointing-to-this-class column="companyId"/>
<fk-pointing-to-element-class column="buildingId"/>
</collection-descriptor>
</class-descriptor>
------------------------------------
As you can see, these are the class descriptors of the application I
spoke about in my last post.
I hope you'll find something wrong (but in fact, because I read that for
JDO all the auto-XXXX attributed have to be kept as default, I don't
mention them in my repository_user.xml).
Thank you again.
