To clarify.. Let's say I have 3 tables.. table A table AxrefB table B
and I also have table C which a foreign key to the primary key of A and B i.e: A(Cpk1), AxrefB(Apk,Cpk2), B(Cpk2) What I want to do is have a relaxed foreign key constraint so I can save AxrefB before saving B So the process would be 1) I'm saving an A so I create a C1 and assign it to A 2) but A also has a relationship to B so to save that relationship currently I'd have to create C2 and assign it to B and then assign B to A's collection and when I save A, B would also be saved. What I want to do is create C2 and somehow just persist AxrefB. Then later when i'm persisting B I look for C2 using other criteria that relates B to C2 and then assign C2 to B and finally save B. So is there a way to map this? -- View this message in context: http://openjpa.208410.n2.nabble.com/is-it-possible-to-save-just-the-primary-key-of-an-object-reference-tp7580796p7580861.html Sent from the OpenJPA Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
