Jepp just gave you an example on how I think things could be made easier
or how things should resolve in that special area...
Dont get me wrong, I like Hibernate but I have seen several developers
run into serious issues in that area...

Hey,
Here are my two cents. The biggest obstacle with Hibernate
is figuring
out how to correctly map the stupid collections and
relationships that
are modeled in your object model. I did not take the time
to look at
all your code but maybe this will help you out:
The mapping is one obstacle, the other one is dealing
correctly with the dreaded m:n relations, there is a huge
lack of good documentation in this area, I hope the next
release of Hibernate in action will resolve that...
Hibernate is not a toy but it is harder to grasp in some
areas than a straight database approach via jdbc.
I am just wondering all the time when I am banging my head
again for hours against some weirdness which was caused
mostly by a mistake of mine, due to lack of understanding /
documentation in a certain area, if there cannot be a sane
middleground somewhere.
now it is getting really off topic ;-)
