Hibernate Mapping Associated Entity?

Hello,

I got tables Product, Text and Language:
Primary Key underlined:

Product
product_id
text_id
price

Text
text_id
lang_id
text

Language
lang_id
description

I have absoultely no idea what the mapping file would look like. I tried chapter 24 of the reference but no example matched.
Maybe anyone knows and also knows the xdoclet-hibernate code for this example?

Thanks in advance
Rene

Whats wrong with learning to do it yourself? After all somebody probably pays you to do it.

Because it is not easy to find examples for this kind association. At least I found nothing. First, I tried to find examples, second, I experimented with mappings, third, I am trying to get help of more experienced users.

It's two simple many-to-one mappings, the easiest kind. No, I won't write it for you.

Take a look at the caveatemptor examples.
Look for CategorizedItem.java

You are looking for Category,CategorizedItem and Item classes.

You will also find the mappings and stuff in there.

Thank you for your hints. But the given example doesnt match exactly in my opinion.

Product
product_id
price

ProductText
product_id
lang_id
text

Language
lang_id
description

would match.

My intention was a text table for different objects (not only product).

Anyway, I switched now to one text table for every object. Then I can apply the categorizedItems example.
