Prefernces apply and use cases vary, but FWW, here's what I do:
Tbl_Order
Tbl_OrderItem
OrderService, OrderDAO, Order
OrderItemService, OrderItemDAO, OrderItem
I define the Order has-many composed OrderItems (on OrderID) and if I wanted
to see the total price, date and a list of items for order 12, I just:
Order = OrderService.getByIF("12", "TotalPrice,Date", "Items")
It returns an Order IBO with all of the info including a composed OrderItem
IBO containing all of the items which I can access by calling:
OrderItem = Order.get("OrderItem")
All done automagically using a few hundred lines of generic data mapper code
and a getAssociated() method in the base service method.
Best Wishes,
Peter
