I have a property:

public int [] xxx(){...}

it's a array of int. so when it's physically store in the database, i hope it can be store in a filed like this {1,3,535,232,22}, not saving it to a new table.

I 've had a look at collections, arrays of hibernate. it seems it only supper one to many, many to many relationship. that means i have to create a new table for storing arrays.

is it possible to save an array without creating a new table?

Not without creating your own Persister or UserType or some other kind of interposing class. It certainly is not the default way to map arrays in Hibernate.

UserType would be fine and more simple I guess
