I'm trying to save a tree structure in app engine. My class has a parent and a list of children of the same type. Everything works until I add the children property. There are no errors when I call pm.makePersistent(), but the object is not saved. Does anyone know why this doesn't work?
This is my class. I'm using App Engine version 1.2.2.
@PersistenceCapable(identityType = IdentityType.APPLICATION)
public class Composite {
@PrimaryKey
@Persistent(valueStrategy = IdGeneratorStrategy.IDENTITY)
private Key id;
@Persistent
private String name;
@Persistent
private Composite parent;
@Persistent(mappedBy = "parent")
private List<Composite> children;
public Composite(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public Key getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Key id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public void setParent(Composite parent) {
this.parent = parent;
}
public Composite getParent() {
return parent;
}
public List<Composite> getChildren() {
return children;
}
public void addChild(Composite child) {
this.children.add(child);
}
}
