Embedding without Annotations?

Hi,

I would like to embed objects in my O/R-Mapping, the way you can do it with @Embeddable/@Embed etc. But my application must not use Java 5, so I cannot use Annotations.

Can I use "embedding" with XML-mapping?
I cannot find any instructions for that, so I fear the answer is no... ?

Thanks,
bee

1. do realize you will be using Hibernate, not JPA.

2. use the "component" XML element.

(page 185 in the book you find on top of this page ;-)

Cheers, Tom.
