So I have a class with a

@OneToMany @Cascade({CascadeType.ALL})
List<MyOtherPersistentClass> collection;

And I am using the order of this list, and allowing the user to arrange the list and this DOES WORK, and I can persist the order of the list... and yet sometimes (it seems not all the time!) when I save() the object that contains this list, after ordering it, it comes up REVERSED from the order I set it at.

I'm going crazy on this, and it's so close to working, the order is affected and persisted, but it's somehow reversing! Anyone know why, how I can get it to stop or reliably compensate for it?

EDIT! I have figured out that the list order does NOT change when I don't do ANY changing of the order of the list. However, when I change the order AT ALL, now the order becomes the reverse of the order I've set to. ARGH! I'm going crazy, it seems like it shouldn't be doing this!

Thank you,
Joshua

i'm also having the issue using xml mapping:



somehow it pushes new items like in a stack (i've checked the database index field), and not like in a list

// now the list-index is just bouncing here and there
