Here is the description of my test. I want to create 2 entity
beans Campaign and MediaPlan. The relationship is one to many (a campaign
may contain several mediaplans but a mediaplan belongs to only one
campaign). Here is an extract from my ejb-jar:
<relationships>
<ejb-relation>
<ejb-relation-name>MediaPlan-Campaign</ejb-relation-name>
<ejb-relationship-role>
<ejb-relationship-role-name>
campaign-has-mediaplan
</ejb-relationship-role-name>
<multiplicity>many</multiplicity>
<role-source>
<ejb-name>Campaign</ejb-name>
</role-source>
<cmr-field>
<cmr-field-name>mediaplans</cmr-field-name>
<cmr-field-type>java.util.Collection</cmr-field-type>
</cmr-field>
</ejb-relationship-role>
<ejb-relationship-role>
<ejb-relationship-role-name>
mediaplan_belongsto_campaign
</ejb-relationship-role-name>
<multiplicity>one</multiplicity>
<cmr-field>
<cmr-field-name>campaign</cmr-field-name>
</cmr-field>
<role-source>
<ejb-name>MediaPlan</ejb-name>
</role-source>
</ejb-relationship-role>
</ejb-relation>
</relationships>
Now when orion deploys it creates table that are IMHO uncessarly complex:
Auto-creating table: create table Campaign (id NUMBER not null primary
key, name VARCHAR2(255) null, creation_date DATE null, start_date DATE
null)
Auto-creating table: create table Campaign_mediaplans (id NUMBER not null,
value NUMBER null)
Auto-creating table: create table MediaPlan (mediaplanid NUMBER not null
primary key, name VARCHAR2(255) null, descr VARCHAR2(255) null, campaign
NUMBER null)
The join table Campaign_mediaplans is not necessary ...
then when I create a new mediaplan with campaign = 1 for example, it
works. But if I load the bean Campaign = 1 and I ask for the list of media
plans, the result is empty ... The table Campaign_mediaplans is empty
after the beans creation.
I'm not sure if I'm wrong or if it's an Orion problem, the EJB 2 draft is
not very clear to me.
Thanks.
