[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-4090) RelationTargetAuditMode.NOT_AUDITED not working with many-to-many relations

[Chester do Nascimento (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-4090?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=34308#action_34308 ] 

Chester do Nascimento commented on HHH-4090:
--------------------------------------------

Also reproducible here with MySQL, Hibernate 3.3.1 GA and Hibernate-Envers 3.5.0.Beta-1.

For Many-To-Many the current syntax may not be enough. For example, I may either want not to audit the relationship at all, but I could also want to audit the join table but not the other side.

Real-life example: if I am linking this entity to several entries in a big, non-mutable dictionary (as in the example on HHH-410) - it may be desired to track the releationships, but not the (non-existent) changes at the other side.
