i have a design question for the list: i have a situation where i have some persons that each owns a number of games... each game has only one owner.
using orions OR mapping features i have put a collection of games in each personbean. This creates a many-to-many table with a personid and a gameid. My database design knowledge tells me this is wrong, and that what i need is a foreign key to the person table in the game table. also, i would like to be able to both see what games a person owns, and who owns a certain game. i cant seem to do that without creating redundant data in the database... i would like to think i could make a sensible ejblayer on a sensible database design. So in conclusion: how do i make this one-to-many relationship so i can read it both ways without creating redundant data, and without making a many-to-many table between the person and the game table? hope any of this makes any sense sincerely Morten Wilken
