@Target(value={METHOD,FIELD}) @Retention(value=RUNTIME) public @interface OneToMany
Specifies a many-valued association with one-to-many multiplicity.If the collection is defined using generics to specify the element type, the associated target entity type need not be specified; otherwise the target entity class must be specified. If the relationship is bidirectional, the
mappedBy
element must be used to specify the relationship field or property of the entity that is the owner of the relationship.The
OneToMany
annotation may be used within an embeddable class contained within an entity class to specify a relationship to a collection of entities. If the relationship is bidirectional, themappedBy
element must be used to specify the relationship field or property of the entity that is the owner of the relationship. When the collection is ajava.util.Map
, thecascade
element and theorphanRemoval
element apply to the map value.Example 1: One-to-Many association using generics // In Customer class: @OneToMany(cascade=ALL, mappedBy="customer") public Set<Order> getOrders() { return orders; } In Order class: @ManyToOne @JoinColumn(name="CUST_ID", nullable=false) public Customer getCustomer() { return customer; } Example 2: One-to-Many association without using generics // In Customer class: @OneToMany(targetEntity=com.acme.Order.class, cascade=ALL, mappedBy="customer") public Set getOrders() { return orders; } // In Order class: @ManyToOne @JoinColumn(name="CUST_ID", nullable=false) public Customer getCustomer() { return customer; } Example 3: Unidirectional One-to-Many association using a foreign key mapping // In Customer class: @OneToMany(orphanRemoval=true) @JoinColumn(name="CUST_ID") // join column is in table for Order public Set<Order> getOrders() {return orders;}
