It is! See the program and its output:
class Person(SQLObject):
firstName = StringCol()
lastName = StringCol()
# Do these three lines matter? Why?
owner = MultipleJoin( 'Project', joinColumn='owner_id' )
contact = MultipleJoin( 'Project', joinColumn='contact_id' )
developer = MultipleJoin( 'Project', joinColumn='developer_id' )
class Project(SQLObject):
Name = StringCol(alternateID=True)
Description = StringCol()
Owner = ForeignKey('Person')
Contact = ForeignKey('Person')
Developer = ForeignKey('Person')
Person.createTable()
p1 = Person(firstName="p1", lastName="Person1")
p2 = Person(firstName="p2", lastName="Person2")
p3 = Person(firstName="p3", lastName="Person3")
Project.createTable()
Project(Name="t1", Description="Test 1", Owner=p1, Contact=p2, Developer=p3)
Project(Name="t2", Description="Test 2", Owner=p1, Contact=p3, Developer=p2)
print p1.owner
print p1.contact
print p1.developer
print p2.owner
print p2.contact
print p2.developer
print p3.owner
print p3.contact
print p3.developer
[<Project 1 Name='t1' Description='Test 1' OwnerID=1 ContactID=2
DeveloperID=3>, <Project 2 Name='t2' Description='Test 2' OwnerID=1 ContactID=3
DeveloperID=2>]
[]

[<Project 1 Name='t1' Description='Test 1' OwnerID=1 ContactID=2 DeveloperID=3>]
[<Project 2 Name='t2' Description='Test 2' OwnerID=1 ContactID=3 DeveloperID=2>]
[]
[<Project 2 Name='t2' Description='Test 2' OwnerID=1 ContactID=3 DeveloperID=2>]
[<Project 1 Name='t1' Description='Test 1' OwnerID=1 ContactID=2 DeveloperID=3>]
Understand?
