Re: [Simple-support] how to have a link to the parent

[Niall G. <gal...@ya...>]

Hi,

I am not sure what you mean by access. If your talking
about an object reference access, then thats simple.
Do the following.


class Parent {

public void commit(Map session){
  session.put("parent", this);
}
}

class Child {

public void commit(Map session) {
 Parent p = (Parent)session.get("parent");
// ... do whatever
}
}

Hope this helps.
