Hi Guys,
I have a small problem with many-to-one relationship.
I have a table called inputs which has many-to-one relationship with a table called webpages, now an input can either have a webpage or a null value,
i can save it in the database in either case but when i try to delete an input with null webpage value it throws a TransientObjectException saying that webpage which is null has not been saved,
Here is the mapping,


input.hbm.xml has this

<many-to-one name="webPage"
class="WebPage"
column="webpage_id"
not-found="ignore"
not-null="false"
cascade="none"
/>


and i am doing s.saveOrUpdate(input);

i suspect it to be coz of cascade="none", but not sure whats the work around,
I will really appreciate any help.

cheers,
Adnan

Hi,

Did you find the solution, I have similar problem, In my case i have a User Class and Employee Class, User is related to Employee,

When I try to save user I get TransientObjectException and says that Employee has to be saved. But In My case, Employee is already created and it is in DB, I am just adding a child which is user.

Hi kannan,

Since u r saying ur User is related to Employee, how do u expect saving it if its not instantiated on Java side.
If ur User table has FK of Employee then probably you might retrieve the saved Employee against which u would save ur user.
