Hi Armin, all,
I have tried your solutions, but I ran into a problem, because I was working
with rc4. ojb rc4 doesn't have the .link() method in the ServiceBrokerHelper
yet.
So I downloaded rc6, ran the ojb-blank target, inserted my files and created
a rc6-version of my project. I got it all to build, but at the first
ojb-related query, I get this in my logging window:
15:52:11,531 INFO [BaseSubmitter] handleSubmit: Getting persistence
broker...
15:52:12,031 INFO [STDOUT] [BOOT] WARN:
15:52:12,031 INFO [STDOUT] Value
"org.apache.ojb.odmg.collections.DListImpl_2" is illegal for key
"OqlCollectionClass" (should be a class, using default value
org.apache.ojb.odmg.collections.DListImpl)

15:52:12,359 INFO [STDOUT] **

Does this mean anything to you?
Thanks,
-Stijn

doesn't have to be available for multiple PERSON's or COMPANY's or whatever,
so it actually is more of a 1:n relationship using an indirection table. So
PERSON_ADDRESS will often contain the same person_id multiple times, but not
the same address_id.

OjbDoclet to generate the repository.xml and the SQL) and insertion of a
PERSON works fine. However, when we create a new person, add a new Address
to it and try to save the person, the following happens:
