[Hibernate-devel] MappingByReflection status

[Doug C. <de...@fl...>]

I completed the refactoring, breaking the one MappingByReflection
class into eight classes. I put them all in the tools.reflect package.
Maintenance should be easier that way.

The reliance on Persistent has been eliminated as suggested. Abstract
classes are allowed in the superclass chain. Tomorrow I plan to add in
the properties from transient superclasses, finish array handling,
eliminate duplicate table and column names, and clean up.

Are there any situations (short of naming heuristics or config files)
where you would expect the relection code to generate:
 many-to-one
 one-to-many
 many-to-many
 composite-element?
I just want to make sure I understand the dtd.

Your daily dose of XML is below.
