I'm willing to help out here; unfortunately I don't follow the proposed solutions.  I think I lack a good understanding of how all these pieces hang together.  If its worth the effort, could some elaborate a little?

Thanks,

        Key: HHH-434
    Summary: element/@attribute not implemented for collection elements
       Type: Bug

     Status: Unassigned

Description:
None of the following:

<element>
<one-to-many>
<many-to-many>

support use of node="element/@attribute", which is *extremely* useful when embed-xml="false" (the common case).

This is because we do not go via property accessors in the PersistentXXXElementHolder classes. Instead, we have hardcoded element iteration in about 16 different methods.

We need to find some design where this can be made more flexible. 

Perhaps just CollectionPersister.getElementName() + CollectionPersister.getElementValue()/CollectionPersister.getElementValue() is enough, since PropertyAccessor is certainly not an appropriate solution.

Any volunteers?
