Hi,

I really don't know how to implement this mapping (each concrete class in a distinct table):

public abstract class Documento
public abstract class DocumentoPrincipal extends Documento
public abstract class DocumentoAuxiliar extends Documento
public class DocumentoPrincipalPIE extends DocumentoPrincipal
public class DocumentoAuxiliarOIE extends DocumentoAuxiliar

The real problem is the mapping between Documento and DocumentoPrincipal and DocumentoAuxiliar (all abstract classes).

Actually I'm using two files: DocumentoPrincipal.hbm.xml and DocumentoAuxiliar.hbm.xml and using discriminator/discriminator-value tags, but I have to redeclare all fields declared in Documento.

How do I implement this? what have I to use?
Please help...

Thanks,

André

Chapter 3.6 of the Hibernate in Action book has a nice description about inheritance.

Ernest,

I've already read it, but this specific case is not described...

yeah there are about three ways to implement .you can have one table for all of them that is a table per hierachy or a table per sub class.so let me know which one you will like to use.

plsease you can send it to me @ pkkamos@yahoo.com
