I have two questions:<br><br>1) I thought the entity at the source end of a OneToMany defined by annotations didn't care about it's collection and would ignore updates to the collection? (this is the first problem, I got around it by settings cascade = CascadeType.ALL because if it does persist it's list that's not a bad thing, it's just not what I was expecting)<br>
<br>2) After doing that, I get the following error. As far as I can tell all my Entities have generated ids, so I don't really undefrstand how I could have an object with a null id other than the fact that it's null because it has yet to be populated with a generated id.<br>
