Hello,

I have a question about delete. We would like not to hard delete records in the db. We just need to mark records as inactive if we delete them. At DAO we can implement delete as update status=inactive. The question is in parent/child situation, how can we make child soft deleted also?

I am new to Hibernate, any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

You can try implementing the net.sf.hibernate.Lifecycle interface and coding the onDelete() method to do the update and return VETO.

I guess it should work but I haven't tested.
