Hi,

I have two POJOs: Login and Alias. They have one-to-one association between them.

So Login has field:


and Alias has field:



Now let's assume that we are updating the Login record. When Alias field is blank in the UI, I want to delete the corresponding Alias from the database.

I am calling


But it does not delete the record from the database.

I am using the following mapping in Login.hbm.xml



Any help! Thanks in advance.

If you were deleting the Login, you could change your mapping for Login to cascade="save-update,delete". If you are not deleting the Login, then why not session.delete(login.getAlias()) instead of setting the Alias to null?
