Re: [CFCDev] Opinions on One-To-Many representation in OO

[Robert Munn]

I have used a struct of bean objects for the many stored in the one, but only where I know that the number of objects in the struct will be limited. For instance, I have a small content system I put together that stores property beans for content objects in a struct in the object bean. While a content object could in theory have an unlimited number of properties, I know in practice that any given content object will only have a handful of properties, so using a struct is ok.

I have a one to many relationship between two tables, or objects. I assume I should somehow store the many in the bean of the one.
What is your preferred way of handling this?

An Array of objects of the many?
A query of the table with the many?
A structure...?
Other?
