OJB and recursive relationship
Hello,
I have a situation with recursive relationship:
I have a class Software that represents the softwares that could be installed on my machine. Some of these softwares must have other softwares installed before to be able to be installed.
So, I have a recurvive relationship here.
How do you implement this relationship with OJB?
Thank you
Sylvain

Hi Sylvain,
OJB handles self references fine. In other words class A can have a
reference to another instance of class A or a collection of class As.
You may need to make these proxies if the graph is very large and you
need to control the hits to the db.
