I see in the Library example that a Map is used as the return type in
a repository method, but does fornax support storing a map as part of
a collection?
i.e. something like this:
Entity foo {
Map<String, String> properties;
}
I understand that something like this this:
Map<String, Object> properties
might not be possible since Object might not be serializable / might
not be mapped.. etc. - but
Something like this:
Map<@Item, @User> itemsAndUsers
should be mappable as a ternary association with a join table like this:
<map name="itemsAndUser" table="CATEGORY_ITEM">
<key column="CATEGORY_ID"/>
<map-key-many-to-many column="ITEM_ID" class="Item"/>
<many-to-many column="ADDED_BY_USER_ID" class="User"/>
</map>
... now - I just copied that itemsAndUsers example from the Java
Persistence With Hibernate book ( page 347 of the pdf copy of it I
have ) - but you get the idea.
In any case - I'm most interested in just a basic mapping for now -
because I've got a use case where I need to capture and persist a map
of properties...
