Hi Michael ! Yes, this is my case ! Exactly as you described. Could you give me some information more on how to map it or how to try it in some way ?
What about the inheritance problems ? Tks and regards, Michel. -----Mensagem original----- De: michael simons [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviada em: sexta-feira, 31 de outubro de 2003 17:53 Para: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Assunto: Re: [castor-dev] Castor Mapping ...

Hi Michel, I assume your model's somehow like this class Order { private java.util.Collection orderItems; ... } class OrderItem { private Order order; } class OrderSubItem_1 extends OrderItem { ... } class OrderSubItem_2 extends OrderItem { ... } The good news is You can do this with Castor. The bad news is Castor's support of inheritance is insufficient. Please let me know if You need more information.
