Hello,

I have a group of objects persisted using Hibernate. I have a Client object that can have a list of Contacts, and also is linked with a class Address.

Now before the client object was set up in a way that once loaded, all it's Contacts where also loaded.

I did not want this since it was effecting the performance of the web application. Therefore I set the XDoclet command as follows for the Client object.


Now as you can notice, I have set the field lazy="true" however the Contact objects are still loaded! I know this because I can see the generated Sql. however this field lazy="true" is working fine on another list of objects related with Client.

does anyone has any ideas on what I should check?

ps: I forgot to mention that I am using Hibernate 3.0

It is me again.

I have been searching in XDoclet and hibernate documentation. All I can read is that lazy="true" means that the objects of the particular list will not be loaded when the object containing the list is loaded! I really can not understand why it is still being loaded (displaying the Sql to retrieve all the contacts of a client!).

Could another tag in the Contacts class be effecting the load? (for example the reference between Contact and Client?)

Thanks and Regards,
Sim085

ps: I have seen some posts that disscuss that in version 3.03 there was an introduction of lazy="proxy". However the current version of hibernate I have does not support this flag.
