Hello, 
We are currently using OJB 1.0.1 . We have a table that is a child to two 
different tables. 
These two parent tables have composite primary keys and they share part of the 
keys in the 
child table. The child has a 1:1 relation to both the parents. 

The tables look something like this: 

CREATE TABLE "CHILD" ( 
"CHILD_ID" INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, 
"PARENT_ID" INTEGER , 
"ABC" INTEGER , 
"PARENT2_ID" INTEGER ) 
ALTER TABLE "CHILD" 
ADD CONSTRAINT "PARENT2_FK" FOREIGN KEY 
("PARENT2_ID", 
"ABC") 
REFERENCES "PARENT2" 
("PARENT_ID", 
"ABC") 
ALTER TABLE "CHILD" 
ADD CONSTRAINT "PARENT1_FK" FOREIGN KEY 
("PARENT_ID", 
"ABC") 
REFERENCES "PARENT" 
("PARENT_ID", 
"ABC") 

CREATE TABLE "PARENT" ( 
"PARENT_ID" INTEGER NOT NULL, 
"ABC" INTEGER NOT NULL) 
ALTER TABLE "PARENT" 
ADD CONSTRAINT "PK1" PRIMARY KEY 
("PARENT_ID", 
"ABC"); 


CREATE TABLE "PARENT2" ( 
"PARENT2_ID" INTEGER NOT NULL, 
"ABC" INTEGER NOT NULL) 
ALTER TABLE "PARENT2" 
ADD CONSTRAINT "PK1" PRIMARY KEY 
("PARENT2_ID", 
"ABC"); 

The OJB Classes:: 
class Child{ 
private Integer childId; 
private Integer parentId; 
private Integer abc; 
private Integer parent2Id; 
//rel 
private Parent parent; 
private Parent2 parent2; 
} 

class Parent{ 
private Integer parentId; 
private Integer abc; 
//rel 
private Child child; 
} 

class Parent2{ 
private Integer parent2Id; 
private Integer abc; 
//rel 
private Child child; 
} 

The repository mapping: 

<class-descriptor class="Child" 
table="CHILD"> 
<field-descriptor name="childId" column="CHILD_ID" primarykey="true" 
jdbc-type="INTEGER"/> 
<field-descriptor name="parentId" column="PARENT_ID" jdbc-type="INTEGER"/> 
<field-descriptor name="abc" column="ABC" jdbc-type="INTEGER"/> 
<field-descriptor name="parent2Id" column="PARENT2_ID" jdbc-type="INTEGER"/> 
<reference-descriptor name="parent" class-ref="Parent"> 
<foreignkey field-ref="parentId" /> 
<foreignkey field-ref="abc" /> 
</reference-descriptor> 
<reference-descriptor name="parent2" class-ref="Parent2"> 
<foreignkey field-ref="parent2Id" /> 
<foreignkey field-ref="abc" /> 
</reference-descriptor> 
</class-descriptor> 

<class-descriptor class="Parent" table="PARENT"> 
<field-descriptor name="parentId" column="PARENT_ID" primarykey="true" 
jdbc-type="INTEGER"/> 
<field-descriptor name="abc" column="ABC" primarykey="true" 
jdbc-type="INTEGER"/> 
<reference-descriptor name="child" class-ref="Child"> 
<foreignkey field-ref="parentId" /> 
<foreignkey field-ref="abc" /> 
</reference-descriptor> 
</class-descriptor> 

<class-descriptor class="parent2" table="PARENT"> 
<field-descriptor name="parent2Id" column="PARENT2_ID" primarykey="true" 
jdbc-type="INTEGER"/> 
<field-descriptor name="abc" column="ABC" primarykey="true" 
jdbc-type="INTEGER"/> 
<reference-descriptor name="child" class-ref="child"> 
<foreignkey field-ref="parent2Id" /> 
<foreignkey field-ref="abc" /> 
</reference-descriptor> 

</class-descriptor> 

When storing the child table, it is possible that data from only one of the 
parent tables 
is populated. 
When I am trying to store in that database, I dont have a problem when I call 
the set method 
on one of the parent objects of the child but when I try to refer the second 
parent in the 
same manner, I am getting a sql exception that says that data does not exist in 
the parent 
table and the transaction is being rolled back(The parent object is stored in 
the database 
first...). I have tried removing the OJB relation and manually setting the 
foreign key fields 
for the second parent. In this case I am able to store the part of the key that 
is not shared 
but the shared part is being set to null in the database. I have also tried to 
make one of 
them a collection-descriptor. I got the same sql exception. I am not sure if 
there is a problem 
with how the database is setup or how my OJB mappings are and classes are 
setup. At this point, 
short of making a database change, I feel I have exhausted all available 
option. Am I missing 
something? Any advice would be appreciated.. 

Thanks, 
-Sri.
