hi,

i am trying to define a "loop" with annotation in hibernate,
something like the following without success:

[b]class Node
{
List<Node> nodes;
Node parentNode;
}[/b]


i guess i must define the mapping in a join table.
i try several mapping, but without success.
any ideas ?

many thanks.
eran.

Is this a many to many mapping? I'm not sure exactly what your'e tryign to do. There may be an easier way.

Here's a tutorial on mapping associations with Hibernate and annotations which you might find helpful:
