Hi, I'm having problems with my VOs in XDoclet. I can generate my VOs allright, and using them on client side is a great releaf.
When receiving VOs back from client, I would like to update the bean by calling setXXXValue(vo) in the bean, but because the CMP layer doesn't set the pk automatically when creating the VO, an exceptions is thrown because the CMP layer can't get hold of other beans referenced by the bean to be updated. I have searched the web like a mad man, but it seems that nobody have touched upon this issue. I'm aware that when using unknown-pk, I give complete control of the PK to the CMP layer, but never the less, it would be smart to have the correct PK in the VO. Is there a work around, or should I use a different approach than VOs? Bean in questing: /** | * XDoclet-based CMP 2.x entity bean.
