The following piece of mapping:

<map name="variables" table="FT_O_WFGV" cascade="all,delete-orphan" inverse="true" >
<meta attribute="property-type">Map&lt;String,GlobalVariable></meta>
<key column="workflow_id" on-delete="cascade"/>
<map-key type="string" column="name"/>
<composite-element class="com.j2fe.workflow.definition.GlobalVariable">
<property name="clazz" type="java.lang.Class" column="classname" not-null="true"/>
<property name="value" type="java.lang.Object" column="value" not-null="false"/>
<property name="persistent" type="yes_no" column="persistent" not-null="true"/>
<property name="workflowInput" type="yes_no" column="workflow_input" not-null="true"/>
</composite-element>
</map>

Error durring load

org.hibernate.MappingException: only inverse one-to-many associations may use on-delete="cascade": com.j2fe.workflow.definition.Workflow.variables

Well there is no one-to-many defined here, but actually the map and the composite element impicate that.

Is this a bug or did I miss something?

the same for something like:

<set name="persistentVariables" table="FT_O_WFNV" cascade="all,delete-orphan" >
<meta attribute="property-type">Set&lt;String></meta>
<key column="id" not-null="true" />
<element type="string" not-null="true" column="name"/>
</set>

I'm getting the same thing. Sure smells like a bug to me. The documentation certainly doesn't mention any such restriction that I can find.

Could you enter a bug for that and post the id here? thanks

Isn't there a typo?




Same goes to the initial posting.

no, the greater sign doesn't have to be escaped, it is a common misunderstanding that it has to be. Try it, every complient parser will read it without difficulty
