Hi

I am newbie to hibernate. I have a parent table and a child table.
When I delete a row in parent table
( I am using cascade="delete" in hbm ) so all the corresponding rows in child table are getting deleted. . But my task is to update the corresponding child rows (insted of deleting) with null .
I can do that by removing the cascade="delete" writing a query to update the child table rows (using where pid=? condition) ..
I just wanted to know is there any other easy way i can achieve the result.

Thank you
