Hello everyone,I wonder if somebody could provide me with some help.First of all I have two entities relating to each other:public class Iteamdetailsent implements Serializable{.................... @ManyToOne() @JoinColumn(name="DeptID") private Departmentent departmentent;}relating to:public class Departmentent implements java.io.Serializable{..._at_OneToMany(mappedBy="departmentent") private Collection <Iteamdetailsent> iteamdetailsent;...}In the client when I print details as follows:for(Iteamdetailhlp itemlist: iteamdetailhlp){ out.println("<TR>"); out.println("<td>");out.println(itemlist.getitmid());out.println("</td>"); out.println("<td>");out.println(itemlist.getitmname());out.println("</td>"); out.println("<td>");out.println(itemlist.getdescription());out.println("</td>"); out.println("<td>");out.println(itemlist.getitemsize());out.println("</td>"); out.println("<td>");out.println(itemlist.getcolour());out.println("</td>"); out.println("<td>");out.println(itemlist.getprice());out.println("</td>"); out.println("<td>");out.println( itemlist.getDeptID());out.println("</td>"); ...........}The Iteamdetailhlp is a helper classBut this last column gives me a null:out.println("<td>");out.println(itemlist.getprice());out.println("</td>");
                                             
out.println("<td>");out.println(
itemlist.getDeptID());out.println("</td>");Itemcode

Why is this?In the log file I get this:[#|2007-08-13T15:50:10.603+0100|INFO|sun-appserver-pe9.0|javax.enterprise.system.stream.out|_ThreadID=15;_ThreadName=httpWorkerThread-8080-1;|All Items:|#]Secondly, i have 3 entities relating to each other. To resolve many to many relationship and from my understanding of DB, I created and entity for composition, containing all the primary keys of all three entities as follows:public class Iteamdetailsent implements Serializable{ @Id @Column(name="ITMID", nullable=false) private String itmid;................}public class Customerent implements Serializable { @Id @Column(name="CUSID", nullable=false) private String cusid; ..................}public class CollOrdersrement implements java.io.Serializable{ @Id @Column(name="CollORDID", nullable=false) private String collOrdID;............}with the composite keys defined in the following class: public class CollOrdline implements java.io.Serializable{ private String itmid; private String cusid; private String collOrdID; public CollOrdline(){} @Id public String getitmid(){ return itmid;} public void setitmid(String itmid){ this.itmid=itmid;} @Id //_at_Column(name = "CollORDID", nullable = false, insertable = false, updatable = false) public String getcollOrdID(){ return collOrdID;} public void setcollOrdID(String collOrdID){ this.collOrdID=collOrdID;} @Id public String getcusid() {return cusid;} public void setcusid(String cusid){ this.cusid=cusid; }Now when I try to retrieve data from CollOrdline as below:try{ InitialContext ctx=new InitialContext(); //call the interface collOrdlinerem=(CollOrdlinerem)ctx.lookup("CollOrdersrementJNDI"); String sbc="1"; String rest; collOrdline=collOrdlinerem.Collpoinordid(sbc); rest=collOrdline.getcollOrdID(); System.out.print(rest); }catch(Exception ex){ System.err.println("Can not show the collection point order"); }I get a null with the following message in my log file:[#|2007-08-13T16:18:36.993+0100|INFO|sun-appserver-pe9.0|javax.enterprise.system.stream.out|_ThreadID=15;_ThreadName=httpWorkerThread-8080-1;|null|#]I believe, this has something to do with the way I have specified the relationships. How do I resolve this issue?Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.Thankseve
