I have an class that references another class, I woud like to implement using the <many-ton-one> tag. The referenced class however is abstract and thus I do not wish to create a table for it, only its concrete subclasses. How can I encode this many-to-one mapping using a discriminator todescribe the sub-class actually referenced?

thanks,

after further search it seems tha an any-to-one mapping might do it though i am unclear as to how to implement this.
any advice would be appreciated.
