Dear You all,
I'm currently fighting big time with XDoclet to understand it. I think I have a very simple problem but for some reason, I don't get it. I have a bean that have a relationship with itself : "I'm a 'People' and I can have other 'People' as friends". Out of that bean, I try to make two value objects : - one with the bare minimum information about a 'People' : name, role, etc. No information about the "friends". It'll be called "PeopleListValue" - a "fat" one, with everything from People. For the "friends" relation, I use an aggregate of PeopleListValue. (I saw that idea there : http://www.mail-archive.com/xdoclet-user%40lists.sourceforge.net/msg03372.html) So, I /think/ I'm OK here, no circular references. Now, for some reason I completely miss, XDoclet builds an erroneous CMP class out of the bean that can't compile : foundryserver/beans/PeopleCMP.java:135: cannot resolve symbol [javac] symbol : method getPeopleListValue () [javac] location: interface foundryserver.beans.interfaces.PeopleLocal [javac] PeopleVOValue.addFriend( ((foundryserver.beans.interfaces.PeopleLocal)iFriend.next()).getPeopleListValue() ); I'd be very happy if one could tell me why it tries to get the PeopleListValue out of the local interface. I could think it makes sense, but then, how do I tell XDoclet to generate the getPeopleListValue () method ? For information, I have the following code in an entity bean (stripped useless stuff).: ... * @ejb.value-object name="PeopleList" * match="light" * @ejb.value-object name="PeopleVO" * match="fat" */ public abstract class PeopleBean implements EntityBean { ... /** * @ejb.interface-method * @ejb.relation name="friendship" * role-name="ILove" * target-ejb="People" * target-role-name="ImLoved" * * @ejb.value-object * match="fat" * type="java.util.Collection" * relation="external" * aggregate="foundryserver.beans.interfaces.PeopleListValue" * aggregate-name="Friend" * members="foundryserver.beans.interfaces.PeopleLocal" * members-name="Friend" * * @return Returns the name. */ public abstract Collection getFriends(); thank you for your patience.
