autogenerating db-schema cascade=CascadeType.REMOVE but no ON DELETE CASCADE

[rouven gorsky]

Good day/night

One question about auto-generating DB-schemas:

I have defined the following two Entities:

@Entity
public class Parent{
	
	@GeneratedValue
	@Id
	@Column(name="ID")
	private int id;
	
	@Column(name="NAME", nullable=true)
	private String name;
	
	
	@OneToMany(cascade=CascadeType.REMOVE, mappedBy="parent")
	private List<Child> children;
	
	/**
	 * Empty constructor
	 */
	public Parent(){}

}

and

@Entity
public class Child{
	
	@GeneratedValue
	@Id
	@Column(name="ID")
	private int id;
	
	@ManyToOne
	   private ParentEntity parent;
	  
	
	@Column(name="NAME", nullable=true)
	private String name;

}

They run in a JBoss application server jboss-4.2.2.GA. I have set some Hibernate-Properties in order to autgenerate the tables on deployment. It all works fine but something puzzles me: These are the two auto generated create queries for the tables:

| parent | CREATE TABLE `parent` (
  `ID` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `NAME` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`ID`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 |

| child | CREATE TABLE `child` (
  `ID` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `NAME` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `parent_ID` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`ID`),
  KEY `FK3E104FCBD7726DC` (`parent_ID`),
  CONSTRAINT `FK3E104FCBD7726DC` FOREIGN
`ID`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 |

Why is there no [b]ON DELETE CASCADE[/b] statement in the child-query?? There should be one as I have declared @OneToMany(cascade=CascadeType.REMOVE, mappedBy="parent") in the parent-entity.
Thank you for your assistance.
