Re: Set cascading-persist gobally or through ReverseMappingTool

[Rick Curtis <cu...@gmail.com>]

Before we dive into looking at making a change to the ReverseMapping tool,
lets look a bit closer at the problem that you've encountered. Can you post
more details about what is going on when you get the " Suggested actions:
a) Set the cascade attribute for this field to CascadeType.PERSIST or
CascadeType.ALL (JPA annotations) or "persist" or "all" (JPA orm.xml),"
message?

Thanks,
Rick
