[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-879?page=co... ] Ali Ibrahim commented on HHH-879: --------------------------------- Hi, The following is a simple hack to disable Hibernate's duplicate association check: Change JoinWalker.isDuplicateAssociation(String, String[]) to always return false. Note that this may cause any program with a mapping which has a non-lazy circular association to loop forever if there is a cycle in the object graph. For my research purposes this was fine because I never have non-lazy associations. Running Hibernate's unit tests, none of them actually loops forever and as I remember only a couple more unit tests fail mainly due to them expecting an association to be lazy when it isn't. -Ali -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
