set with many-to-many doesn't want to be lazy

Hi,

I've a Rubric class containing a set of Articles declared as lazy with:

Code:

<set
            name="articles"
            table="article_relrubrics"
            lazy="true"
            cascade="all"
            sort="unsorted"
>
  <key column="rubric"/>
  <many-to-many  class="myPackage.Article" column="article"/>
</set>

when I get a rubric, all contained articles are loaded as well (visible in the log):

Code:

   Session session = HibernateUtil.currentSession();
   Transaction tx = session.beginTransaction();
   Object o = session.get(Rubric.class, new Integer(1));
   tx.commit();
   HibernateUtil.closeSession();

I don't want the articles to be loaded if not requested to. Any idea what I'm doing wrong to have a lazy set?

Marc.

PS: I use Hibernate 2.1.3 with MySql 4.0.13

I am sure you are accessing the collection in your code somehow.

as far as I know, really not.
To understand what is going, I run the provided code from a test program that doesn't do anything else.

Ok, you were rigth, I had a

Code:

logger_.debug("setArticles: " + _articles);

in the setArticles method, and the toString method of the Set accesses to the Set elements forcing Hibernate to retrieve them from the db.
Thanks and sorry for the question.
