Re: bidirectional relations between nodes of the same type

[Pike]

Hi

I have defined a relation between categories in order to create a 
category tree.
here is my problem/question
how to determine who is the parent en who is the child?
Is using 'searchdir' not sufficient during construction?
well no.

if I defined a bidirectional relation between object A and object B
and create a relation from A to B or from B to A the result is the same
for some reason, I had the same problem. I solved it
by casting  the relations to nodes and checking the snumber / dnumber
fields, which were correct. which is ugly, but it works.
I should add, I'm still confused about directionality in mmbase.
