--------------------------------

This now works perfectly. Thanks Anatol!

> Support for union-subclass

>          Key: XDP-49
>          URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/XDP-49
>      Project: XDoclet 2 Plugins
>         Type: New Feature
>   Components: hibernate
>     Versions: hibernate-1.0
>  Environment: Win32, Eclipse IDE
>     Reporter: John Latham

> Attached is my Eclipse project including unit tests. The model is a simple 
> Customer/Payment model, where Payment has three subclasses, as used in the 
> Hibernate Reference documentation.
> There are currently two issues:
> 1. Cascase creates don't work. I have annotated Customer (the parent) with 
> '@hibernate.set lazy="true" inverse="true" cascade="all"', but this isn't 
> propagated to Customer.hbm.xml when the mappings are generated. Consequently, 
> the relationship is only mapped from the Payment (child) class.
> 2. There is not currently support for union-subclass. This is difficult for 
> me to write tests for, since I don't know what syntax to use. The mapping I 
> am aiming for is the "Table per concrete class" approach documented in 
> section 9.1.5. of the Hibernate reference doc. In the current project, I 
> instead use "Table per subclass, using a discriminator".
> So, perhaps the steps are:
> (a) Fix the cascade issue
> (b) Implement union-subclass support.
> (c) Change the xdoclet tags in this test project to implement "Table per 
> concrete class" using union-subclass.
> (d) Maybe tweak the tests in this project. Sorry this is a bit vague, but 
> since I haven't used union-subclass I'm not quite sure what the test should 
> look like. The current tests (e.g. testPolymorphicAssociations) may do it.
> I'm happy to help further with, perhaps when (a) and (b) are done I could do 
> (c) and (d).
> Please tell me if my approach is wrong, this is the first open source project 
> I've been involved with!
> Regards,
> John Latham
