Hi,

I have a parent table Parent which has many to many mapping with the Child table and I also have the Parent_Child table that stores the parent_id and child_id following is the hibernate mapping defined.

<class name="Parent" table="Parent">
<id name="Parent_id" type="long">
<column name="Parent_id">
</id>
<set inverse="true" table="Parent_Child" cascade="save-update">
<key>
<column name="Parent_id"/>
</key>
<many-to-many entity-name="Child">
<column name="Child_id"/>
</many-to-many>
</set>

When I save the parent it inserts the record into the parent table and child table but does not store anything in the Parent_Child table. I want records to be inserted in the parent,child and parent_child table. What is the best way to do so in hibernate.

Thanks,
Bkhe
