The workaround I have had to use is to create my JavaBean accessors such as this:
List item; public Item getItem() { return item.get(0); } public void setItem(Item item) { item.set(0, item); } This still gives me type checking on the object and allows the FK to be on either entity on a 1-1 reference. BTW...I would like to see this added to the TODO list. A FK on a 1-1 relation should be allowed on either entity in the database. This requires both of these forms to be valid: <class-descriptor class="Foo" table="foo" > ... <reference-descriptor name="bar" class-ref="Bar"> <foreignkey field-ref="barID" /> </reference-descriptor> ... </class-descriptor> And <class-descriptor class="Foo" table="foo" > ... <reference-descriptor name="bar" class-ref="Bar"> <inverse-foreignkey field-ref="fooID" /> </reference-descriptor> ... </class-descriptor> Thoughts?

Hi, I would like to model a one-to-one Relationship between 2 classes. For simplicity I would like to have a single FK in one of the classes only. Unfortunately OJB does not allow the definition of an "inverse-foreign-key" within the reference descriptor. How do I solve this ? I don't wish to have a List in one of the classes, I prefer the type-safe using a single Object. If I had 2 fk's what happens upon update on one of the objects ? Which setting do I need to take to ensure consistency of both fks? I.e. update only the other classes fk but leave other fields untouched? Thanks for any help on this, by the way I am using CVS head.
