考虑下面的Work,Author 和 Person模型的关系。 我们用多对多关系来描述Work 和 Author, 用一对一关系来描述Author 和 Person, 另一种可能性是Author继承Person。
下面的映射文件正确的描述了这些关系:
<hibernate-mapping> <class name="Work" table="works" discriminator-value="W"> <id name="id" column="id"> <generator class="native"/> </id> <discriminator column="type" type="character"/> <property name="title"/> <set name="authors" table="author_work"> <key column name="work_id"/> <many-to-many class="Author" column name="author_id"/> </set> <subclass name="Book" discriminator-value="B"> <property name="text"/> </subclass> <subclass name="Song" discriminator-value="S"> <property name="tempo"/> <property name="genre"/> </subclass> </class> <class name="Author" table="authors"> <id name="id" column="id"> <!-- The Author must have the same identifier as the Person --> <generator class="assigned"/> </id> <property name="alias"/> <one-to-one name="person" constrained="true"/> <set name="works" table="author_work" inverse="true"> <key column="author_id"/> <many-to-many class="Work" column="work_id"/> </set> </class> <class name="Person" table="persons"> <id name="id" column="id"> <generator class="native"/> </id> <property name="name"/> </class> </hibernate-mapping>
映射中有4个表。works, authors 和 persons 分别保存着work,author和person的数据。author_work是authors和works的关联表。 表结构是由SchemaExport生成的。
create table works ( id BIGINT not null generated by default as identity, tempo FLOAT, genre VARCHAR(255), text INTEGER, title VARCHAR(255), type CHAR(1) not null, primary key (id) ) create table author_work ( author_id BIGINT not null, work_id BIGINT not null, primary key (work_id, author_id) ) create table authors ( id BIGINT not null generated by default as identity, alias VARCHAR(255), primary key (id) ) create table persons ( id BIGINT not null generated by default as identity, name VARCHAR(255), primary key (id) ) alter table authors add constraint authorsFK0 foreign key (id) references persons alter table author_work add constraint author_workFK0 foreign key (author_id) references authors alter table author_work add constraint author_workFK1 foreign key (work_id) references works
