I expect the proxies are hibernate artifacts - so 'it' can monitor changes to the underlying object. But in any case, the 'proxying' can pretty much be ignored. You just create castor mapping files normally.

If you use 1:1 relations with CastorJDO the related object is a cglib proxy to the real object. If you don't use that the cglib proxy may be created by some other software you use. If you need to know more about cglib you may search the web. Ralf Jay Goldman schrieb: >I use a combination of hibernate and castor.
