Hey,
Last week I "fixed" Hibernate tools by adding support for controlling cascade,
insert, update and a few other things on associations.
In that progress I noticed that the reverse engineering were setting all collection
associations cascade to "all" and not "none" which I believe would be
the better to avoid surprises.
I changed it to 'none' since our hbm.xml generation were not generating cascade at
that point anyway, but of course when coming to seam-gen we use annotations and in here
CascadeType.ALL were being output - with the new hibernate tools no cascade is set because
CascadeType.NONE is the default.
This is of course a change in the semantics of generation and I just want to check what we
would *really* like to do...
1) does this change actually break seam-gen in any way ? (I don't think so because all
assocations is explicitly updated anyway (afaics))
2) What default do you think we should use for reveng, ALL or NONE (or something else ?)
p.s. A swift reply would be appreciated since we are going for a GA build within a few
days ;)
p.p.s. If we find a better default I can add a checkbox in the tools to enable to old
default if needed.
p.p.p.s. For Pete: The bug I mentioned last night was simply another indentifier
misspelling we found that for some
reason hadn't been patched in our build - so that is a separate issue I'm trying
to find the cause for in

Thanks,
