Hi,
I have the following mappings in my hibernate hbm.xml file (this cannot be changed, the table structure has been decided by the DBA):
We are passing these Postcode objects through to
struts instead of having data transfer objects, this is read only data - the application will never modify any postcode/suburb information.
My problem is that I need a query that gives the same result as the following two queries:
but instead of returning Suburb objects and Postcode objects, only returns Postcode objects. As you can see, the first query will return Suburb objects as I am searching on the nzTownCity or nzSuburb columns because the suburbRequiredFlag is set to 'Y' on the Postcode.
I know this seems fairly complicated but if there is a way that I can get only Postcode objects with the matching Suburb objects (instead of all the Suburb objects that are bound to a Postcode because of the one-to-many relationship) then that would be great.
Thanks in advance,
Annie
