This problem was posted earlier. But there was no solution to this. I would appreciate if somebody can point me to the right direction.


The diagram is like that: B <-*------ A ------*--> C

But when I try so make some operation with C the following exception is raised by the persistence layer:

"...Found shared references to a collection"



The descriptor of A is the following:

<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="A" table="a">
<id name="oid" type="long" column="id" unsaved-value="0" >
<generator class="identity"/>
</id>

<set name="bs" inverse="false" >
<key column="id_a"/>
<one-to-many class="b"/>
</set>

<set name="cs" inverse="false" ">
<key column="id_a"/>
<one-to-many class="c"/>
</set>

</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

Are you using the same collection for bs and cs ?
You must not.

Hi:

I got the problem. i was returning the same collection.


Thanks
