Hey everyone - i have a simple persistence mapping question which i am unsure about:
I have a Category class which can many images - an image can only be in one category. How do i map this? I've had a go but not sure if i'm correct: ===== Category.class ====== @Entity @Table(name="categories") public class Category extends BaseObject { protected Set<Image> images = new HashSet<Image>(); //getter @OneToMany( targetEntity=Image.class, mappedBy="???" ) public Set<Image> getImages(){ return images; } } ===== Image.class ===== public class Image extends BaseObject { protected Long categoryId; //getter public Long getCategoryId() { return categoryId; } } Thats as far as i have got? Do i need a join table? Surely if the Image object just contains a category ID that will be fine? Any suggestions about how to map this would be very greatful :) Many Thanks Sion -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/javax.persistence-Design-Question-tf3674600s2369.html#a10267807 Sent from the AppFuse - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
