I need some help defining the following object hierarchy/ database relationship in Hibernate
From the object sense – Agent is inherited from Person and Agency is inherited from Organization. they are inherited from Party which can have multiple Addresses associated with it
The database consists of
Agent -ID -Name -PartyID (references Party.ID)
Agency -ID -Name -PartyID (references Party.ID)
Address -AddrID -PartyID (referen开发者_StackOverflow中文版ces Party.ID) -Street
Party. -PartyID
Something like the following could be a start
@Entity
public class Party {
@Id
private BigInteger partyID;
private String name;
@OneToMany(mappedBy="party")
private Set<Address> addresses;
}
@Entity
public class Organization extends Party {}
@Entity
public class Person extends Party {}
@Entity
public class Agency extends Organization {}
@Entity
public class Agent extends Person {}
@Entity
public class Address{
@Id
private BigInteger addressID;
@ManyToOne
private Party party;
private String street;
}
this article could help you. includes src as well.
