7.2.3. One-to-many
A unidirectional one-to-many association on a foreign key is an unusual case, and is not recommended.
<class name="Person"> <id name="id" column="personId"> <generator class="native"/> </id> <set name="addresses"> <key column="personId" not-null="true"/> <one-to-many class="Address"/> </set> </class> <class name="Address"> <id name="id" column="addressId"> <generator class="native"/> </id> </class>
create table Person ( personId bigint not null primary key ) create table Address ( addressId bigint not null primary key, personId bigint not null )
You should instead use a join table for this kind of association.
