Hallo, I work with JPA for the first time.

My database:

Customer : ID | NAME | other columns
Product : ID | DISCRIMINATOR | NAME |other columns | HARDWARE_INTERFACE |
XML_ID
Customer_Product_Rel: CUSTOMER_ID | PRODUCT_ID | AMOUNT

My objects:

@Entity
CustomerDTO: attributes like id, name ... and
List<ShoppingCartPropertiesDTO> products = new
ArrayList<ShoppingCartPropertiesDTO>();

ShoppingCartPropertiesDTO: private ProductDTO product = null; private
Integer amount = null;

@Entity
@Inheritance(strategy=InheritanceType.SINGLE_TABLE)
@DiscriminatorColumn(name = "DISCRIMINATOR", discriminatorType =
DiscriminatorType.STRING, length = 2)
abstract class Product: id, name ,descr, ...

@Entity(name="SoftwareDTO")
@DiscriminatorValue("SW")
public class SoftwareDTO extends ProductDTO: private SystemRequirementsDTO
systemRequirements = null; private String language = null;


My question: Can I map the customer with a list of the additional object
(ShoppingCartPropertiesDTO) which contains the product and the amount? And
how is the ManyToMany annotation ?



An additional question: What means the exception with missing descriptor ??

Exception Description: Missing descriptor for [ShoppingCartPropertiesDTO].
Verify that the descriptor has been properly registered with the Session.
