Bidirectional associations support
----------------------------------
Key: IBATIS-427
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IBATIS-427
Project: iBatis for Java
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: SQL Maps
Affects Versions: 2.3.0
Reporter: Andrew Bethell
(Added this issue as a new feature, as I cannot find any documentation or
instructions on how to implement this with iBATIS.)
I have the same requirements described here :
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg00962.html - in a nutshell I
have an 'Order' object which contains a List of 'OrderItem' objects (lazy
loaded), but I want the OrderItems to contain references back to the parent
'Order' object (also using a lazy-load property).
At the moment iBATIS runs into an infinite loop when I try this
(StackOverflowError), and from reading the email thread I mentioned above - it
seems like this functionality is not implemented. However, this discussion
thread here -
http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.tss?thread_id=34028#171643 - has a
comment from one of the iBATIS developers claiming that circular references are
supported -
"Resolves circular references - iBATIS solves circular references the same way
O/R broker does...with a cache. But yes, you do have to configure the cache in
iBATIS for this to work."
I had a quick go at configuring caching with ibatis, but it didnt seem to
change anything. Can anyone shed any light on this issue?
Thanks.
