hi guys

I am unable to save/update my inner object

I have workflow object, workflow object has Template object and
template object has ArrayList of Questions


when i say session.saveOrUpdate(workflow);
the template object is updated BUT the questions doesnt get updated

my flow is object1-->contains object2-->contains list3.

when saveorupdate is performed on object1, object2 gets persisted but list3 is not persisted. any idea where i am missing?

workflow.hbm.xml
<many-to-one name="template" class="com.hibernate.entity.Template" cascade="save-update" lazy="false" fetch="select">
<column name="TEMPLATE_ID" />
</many-to-one>


template hbm.xml
<bag name="questions" table="QUESTION" inverse="true" lazy="false" fetch="select" >
<key>
<column name="TEMPLATE_ID" not-null="true" />
</key>
<one-to-many class="com.hibernate.entity.Question" />
</bag>

Is the cascade="save-update" causing the template to be updated but the List of question inside the template doesnt get updated.

Been strugling for few days, any help greatly apprecated
thanks
