Hi folks,
I would like to know if there is an equivalent type in Hibernate for java.util.ArrayList. I tried to use "set", but because duplicates are not allowed in a set, I got ClassCastException. I am new to Hibernate and I am using XDoclet to generate the mapping file. This is for a one-to-many mapping and I need to do this for a getter/setter in the parent, which has the children information in a java.util.ArrayList. Please advise.
Thanks.
Madhan.

Try using a <bag> instead of a set. As bags allow for duplicates.

Do a search on "bag" in the reference document and you'll find where it says that it allows for duplicates, etc.

Thank you very much. I am trying "bag" with java.util.List and it works fine.
