Hi,

I am using Oracle 9i. I have one to many relationship between two tables employee and roles. I have a JSP form to capture the data for both tables. I wrote two POJO classes representing two tables.

My employee table PK is genertaed automatically. So how can i enter the same key into my role table in same code; because i guees unless we commit the transaction the PK-ID won't be automatically inserted into parent (employee) table and i want to insert that key into child table( role) at the same time.

Thanks

You just don't set an id for you role objects and do:
employee.add(role1);employee.add(role2);

Hib will take care of the id for role assuming your mapping is correct, ie something like


* rate if this helps*

but then how shall i write the mapping? i mean to tell to pick up FK (emp_id) for Role from Employee?

I suggest you read chapter 6:
