Hi,

I have a 1-n relationship from entity A to entity B.
i.e A holds a collection of B. I do not have auto-retrieve (lazy=true) set up for
B's collection on A's POJO.

I would however like B's collection to be retrieved and
populated on A when A is constructed by invoking a given Java
method on a facade.

Essentially, I'd like Hibernate to invoke a given method on a
util class to populate the collection on an entity.

Is this possible ? if yes how ?

Thanks in advance for your help.
