unfortunately hair pulling is the modus operandi with this type of 
project; me, i'm going bald very quickly from all this !!!!
( I too am on my own, using only the EJB Book and the forums ) 

sounds to me like trying to get XDoclet to auto-generate CMR code for a 
boundary condition might get you into more trouble than it's worth . 
Why dont you program it yourself in a session bean, and just use the 
ejb.finders for handling the self-referencing queries ? 

similarly, by the time I got a response to my question last week, I had 
already programmed the 3 beans (M bean, N bean, and the relationship bean) 
myself with my Session code taking care of all the relationship stuff 
(finders and cascade deletes)... it wasnt that much work... 

If I have another M:N relation in my app I will use the 
jboss.relation-table but for the moment I am happy using my code as it 
is... it give me the flexibility to add more fields to the relation table. 

cheers, 
Nat
