I have a REST service that uses Hibernate to persist/retrieve its data. On the front end the service produces and consumes XML.

I have this scenario:

@Entity
public class A{
private long id;
@OneToMany(fetch = FetchType.LAZY, orphanRemoval = true)
@Cascade({CascadeType.ALL})
private List<B> list = new ArrayList();

}

@Entity
public class B{
private long id;
private String name;
...
...
}

On the client I get a object A with the list of objects of type B. But if in the client I remove an object on the server this modify is not persisted. I think that Hibernate don't have the entire graph of my object because Jersey rebuild it from XML.

How I can resolve this problem?

Thanks
