[b]Code between sessionFactory.openSession() and session.close():[/b]

session.save("Company", (Object)map);
// map is the HashMap of objects of Company class
String id = session.getIdentifier(map).toString();

transaction.commit(); // works fine

HashMap map = (HashMap)session.get("Company", id);
// retrieves a hashmap of objects of class Company. When i parse through the map, i endup with StackOverflowException

[b]Name and version of the database you are using:[/b]
Oracle 9i
[b]The generated SQL (show_sql=true):[/b]
create table Employee (EmployeeId varchar2(32) not null, sn varchar2(255), manager number(1,0), DepartmentId varchar2(32), primary key (EmployeeId))

create table Company (CompanyId varchar2(32) not null, name varchar2(255), primary key (CompanyId))

create table Company_employeeo (EmployeeId varchar2(32) not null, CompanyId varchar2(32) not null)

create table Department (DepartmentId varchar2(32) not null, name varchar2(255), location varchar2(255), CompanyId varchar2(32), primary key (DepartmentId))


Can anyone tell me why i'm ending up with stackoverflowerror. Is it got something to do with the mapping.

Thanks,
