I am using Hibernate V2.0. My mapping for a class looks like this :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-mapping.dtd">

<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="deploy.payments.BPOPaymentDecisionBean" table="bpo_payment_decision">
<!--<jcs-cache usage="read-write"/>-->

<composite-id>
<property name="ManagementCompany" column="ManagementCompany" type="string" length="10" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
<property name="FundSponsor" column="FundSponsor" type="string" length="50" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
<property name="FundID" column="FundID" type="string" length="35" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
<property name="TransactionType" column="TransactionType" type="string" length="15" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
</composite-id>

<property name="id" column="id" type="string" length="32" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
<property name="WireType" column="WireType" type="string" length="15" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
<property name="ChequeType" column="ChequeType" type="string" length="15" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

But I got the following exception :

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The content of element type "composite-id" must match "(key-property|key-many-to-one)+".

Ideas ?

Thanks in advance !

Can you read?

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The content of element type "composite-id" must match "(key-property|key-many-to-one)+".

Use key-property, not property inside of composite-did

Oops, sorry..I did paste the wrong mapping file.
Here it is, and I still have the same problem :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-mapping.dtd">

<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="deploy.payments.BPOPaymentDecisionBean" table="bpo_payment_decision">
<!--<jcs-cache usage="read-write"/>-->

<composite-id>
<key-property name="ManagementCompany" column="ManagementCompany" type="string" length="10" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
<key-property name="FundSponsor" column="FundSponsor" type="string" length="50" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
<key-property name="FundID" column="FundID" type="string" length="35" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
<key-property name="TransactionType" column="TransactionType" type="string" length="15" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
</composite-id>

<property name="id" column="id" type="string" length="32" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
<property name="WireType" column="WireType" type="string" length="15" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
<property name="ChequeType" column="ChequeType" type="string" length="15" not-null="true" unique="false"/>
</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

Remove the comment, and try again

And use a proper doctype declaration for 2.0:

Forget my post. Michael is right
