Hello, I am new to ORMs in general. I have a table (lets call it Entity) with columns -- ID expression type ( can be 'long_word', 'short_word' or 'sentence' ) Often, the first two types occur in a 'sentence', so, I want to maintain another table which maps 'Sentences' to 'long_word' or 'short_word' using the 'ID' field. All i need...
I'm using the "join_table" function with Kohana's ORM to build a query. The following works: $category = ORM::factory('category')->join_table('product'); But this doesn't: $category = ORM::factory('category'); $category->join_table('product'); The documentation uses the second as an example, but it returns 0 while the first example...
This is very similar to a previous question (and may be the exact same question) but I really didn't understand the answers enough to be able to tell for sure. I am using Entity Framework 4 in Visual Studio RC1 to create an azure service app (so it is .Net 3.5). I have a database with a lot of patterns like the following: Thing ...
I'm trying to query a pivot table with Kohana's ORM and I'm wondering if there is a built in function I'm missing. Currently I only have 2 models setup for the tables "categories" and "products". There is a pivot table "categories_products", but I don't need a model for it when inserting data with this: $product = ORM::factory('product'...

Q 1) How can we model a ternary relationship using Hibernate? For example, how can we model the ternary relationship presented here using Hibernate (or JPA)? NOTE: I know that JPA 2 has added some constructs for building ternary relationships using maps. However, this question assumes JPA 1 or Hibernate 3.3.x and I don't like to use map...
My God, EF is so frustrating. I can't seem to be able to get my head around what I need to do so I can delete an object. I seem to be able to remove the object but not the related child objects. Can anyone tell me what is the rule of thumb when you want to delete all related child objects of a given object? I've tried loading all relat...

The mapping is dirt simple: @Basic @Enumerated(EnumType.ORDINAL) private MyEnum foo; I would have expected Hibernate to generate an integer column? I've also tried EnumType.STRING (expecting a varchar column) with no ...

In OOD, design of an object is said to be characterized by its identity and behavior. Having used ORM's in the past, the primary purpose, in my opinion, revolves around the ability to store/retrieve data. That is to say, ORM objects are not design by behavior, but rather data (i.e. database tables). Case and point: Many ORM tools com...
