Hi Michael

Thanks for the help. Next question. I have a one to many Partner -> Customer relationship defined.
When creating a new customer, I try to setup the relationship as follows:

         partner.addToCustomers(customer);
         customer.setPartner(partner);

I get a NullPointer, even though customer and partner are not null.

SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception
java.lang.NullPointerException

Any ideas?

When you create a brand new ObjEntity from a DBEntity, it propagates
all attributes and relationships defined in the DBEntity except for
the primary key (Cayenne Modeler assumes you don't need that exposed).
 Once you've created the ObjEntity, though, adding a new relationship
to the DBEntity will not be automatically synced to the ObjEntity.
You have to sync it manually (click the double-arrow icon in either
the DBEntity or ObjEntity toolbar or use the Project menu or keyboard
shortcut).  I'm talking mainly about 3.0M6 since I no longer use the
2.x modeler and don't remember the exact specifics of how it behaves.

Hi Everyone

I am really struggling to use the Cayenne Modelling tool. It seems whenever
I create an ObjectEntity from the DBEntity the relationships are not always
propagated. This happens even when I follow the ARTIST tutorial. I tried
both Cayenne 3.0M6 and Cayenne 2.0.4 and the same behaviour is observed. Is
this a known bug or am I likely doing something horribly wrong?

Thank in advance


Jamie
