Hi all,

Scanario 1:
I am using casacade="all-delete-orphan" for my BAG collection in my HBM files.

Assume I do have class A and it is been related to class B and class C.
even though, I am using casacade="all-delete-orphan" , if i try to save or delete a particular entity, i cannot save or delete directly class A

I am explaining a DELETE Scenario.

eg delete(objA);
it excepts its child to deleted first say delete(objB) and delete(objC).I am been pushed to do like this.


Why it is so? what does actually casacade="all-delete-orphan" this means in the HBM file.

Scenario 2:

If i remove casacade="all-delete-orphan" in my HBM files. I am able to delete directly my parent class.

For eg : delete(objA).

It does not push me to delete objB or objC which is related to class A.


Kindly put me your thoughts, about what casacade="all-delete-orphan" does really mean.

Thanks for your efforts,
With smile

If I'm reading what you are saying correctly things are not working as they should. Please provide more detailed examples, with actual classes and mapping files if possible. Maybe through additional information we can provide a solution that works for you.
