Hibernate version: 3
Name and version of the database you are using: postgres 7.4

Refering to the previous posts (this one and this one), it was mentioned that there was a workaround for the many-to-many issue currently in the hbm2hbmxml mapping. that being that in a situation where a database structure looks like:

(A) <- (AXB) -> (B)

the AXB table will be set up as its own hbm.xml entity instead of understood as a many-to-many relationship between A and B. could you lead me into the direction of what this workaround is, and how'd i would implement it? i really don't want to edit these files by hand, as it would defeat a large part of the purpose why i'm trying to use these tools. i'm pretty new to hibernate, so as much information as possible would help.

thanks,

I'm finding tools to generate many-to-many associations too. I hope this is very important.
Thanks

don't know of any workaround.

and no, it is not on my high priority list. If it is so important for you guys i recommend you contribute a patch - i'll for sure apply it if it works.

did you find any workaround?

Middlegen can do Many-to-many as well as one-to-one. I am not sure I would call it a workaround and you should consider it carefully but its an option while the Tools are updated to include this as an option.

You could consider sponsoring me to add it. It will get done at some point but you can speed the process up with a sponsership.
