Hi all, In order to get the database constraints generated I haved added the @ForeignKey annotation to the @ManyToOne fields. In my application a user edits an entry in a form which allows the user to select the foreign objects from a list box which has been populated via a jpa query. So for example if the object customer has a manytoone relationship to country the country drop down allows selection of the country.
When trying to persist the customer object I get an error about the country object already having an id value set and that this causes problems with auto-generation. It appears that openjpa is attemtping to persist the country object insead of just attaching it and seeing it is already in the database. How can I fix this? I didn;t have this problem when I wasn't using @ForeignKey thanks ----- http://www.jumpingbean.co.za Jumping bean your java and linux experts http://www.cyberconnect.co.za Cyber Connect - More than just broadband -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Correct-way-to-use-%40ForeignKey--tp14545985p14545985.html Sent from the OpenJPA Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
