[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0] - Re: what can be done for not real remove

[waynebaylor]

i agree, if you have set CascadeType.ALL or CascadeType.REMOVE on the "phones" collection, then when you call 
person.getPhones().remove(phone)
the phone will be removed from the db.

if you only have CascadeType.PERSIST and/or CascadeType.MERGE, then only the "link" from person to that phone will be deleted--the phone entity will still be in the db.
