Hibernate version: Hibernate 3.0 rc 1 (28.02.2005)
Hibernate Tools 3.0 alpha 1 (24.01.2005) testing

Name and version of the database you are using: MySql 4.1.9


I'm using Eclipse 3.0 (M1) and the Hibernate Tools to generate my POJOs. It's working great, but the M:M relationships were mapped as a 1:M and a M:1, rather than a true <many-to-many> as I expected.
And a 'join' class is created.

How do I get it to correctly map a <many-to-many>? I'd much rather have the M:M as I'm used to seeing.

I am using a join/Associative table in the DB (between the two M:M tables).

Thanks in advance.

issue already in jira.

we will add automatic recognition of many to many for tables that only consists of two foreign key references.

for more "fancy" recognition/customization we dont have it planned.

/max

I do not see this working in 3.2beta6. I'm running against mysql 4.1.14-nt and I'm still seeing the join tables created even though they only have 2 foreign key columns.
Does anyone know the jira id for this issue?

noone contributed it yet.

i can't remember the case, but search in jira for many-to-many in hibernate-tools on our jira.
