[Xdoclet-user] Many to 1 Unidirection Relationship

[Hall, Simon {IeS eTech}]

Title: Message

Hello,

 

I've tried several different combinations of tags to generate a many to 1 unidirectional relationship, but can't get it.

 

Say I have a two beans, a PackageBean and a PostalDepotBean, and many packages can belong to one Depot.  So I want the PackageBean to know which DepotBean it belongs to but don't want the DepotBean to know which packages belong to it.

 

The following is what I curently have as the relationship declaration in the PackageBean

 

/**
    * @return the postal depot for this package
    * @ejb:interface-method view-type="local"
    * @ejb:relation
    *    name="package-postalDepot"
    *    role-name="one-package-belongs-to-one-postalDepot "
    *    target-role-name="one-postalDepot-has-many-packages"
    *    target-ejb="PostalDepot"
    *    target-multiple="yes"
    *
    * @weblogic:column-map
    *    foreign-key-column="POSTAL_DEPOT_KEY"
    *    key-column="POSTAL_DEPOT_KEY"
 */
    public abstract PostalDepotLocal getPostalDepot();
   
   /**
    * @param postalDepot the postal depot for this package
    * @ejb:interface-method view-type="local"
    */
    public abstract void setPostalDepot(PostalDepotLocal postalDepot);

 

 

POSTAL_DEPOT_KEY is the primary key of the PostalDepotBean.

 

This does not work as xdoclet complains that I need a primary key column called POSTAL_DEPOT_KEY in the PackageBean.

 

How do I define the PackageBean as the 'many' side of the relationship?

 

Thanks
