I am having a mapping table called mapping_user_account, which is having a primary key as pk_user_account_id, fk_user_id, fk_account_id. and i have made hibernate-mapping file for this table as


and Model is look like


now I am trying to fetch User Object by using DetachedCriteria, but i am confuse that how should i Use that for scenario like:
I want to fetch the User, where fk_user_id =1 and fk_account_id=1 from mapping_user_account table.

I am using user table to store the user data, and account table for storing account information.
and this user_id belongs to user table as pk_user_id, and account_id belongs to
account tabe as pk_account_id

Let me know if you guys want more detail
Please help me out, as i am a new user of hibernate

It would probably go something like this:

Is this approach is good for storing Data.
i.e
1. Instead of using the whole object Of Account and User to set into the map_user_account?
2. or should i only use account_id or User_id to store into the database?

In first Approach what i need to do is, when i want to store the Map_user_account then I have to set the Account Object as , as well as , and for doing this what i have to do is i have to fetch the accountObj and userObj by two queries.


And in second approach I only need to set the account_id and user_id to the mapUserAccObj, isn't it?

So i am confused which one to use?Please help me out
