How to map Arrays in Hibernate ?

Mapping of Array

Example

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE hibernate-mappingPUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-mapping-2.0.dtd">

<hibernate-mapping>

    <class name="Group" table="grouptable">

        <id name="id" unsaved-value="0">

             <generator class="increment"/>

        </id>

        <array name="stories" cascade="all">

             <key column="parent_id"/>

             <index column="idx"/>

             <one-to-many class="Story"/>

        </array>

        <property name="name" type= "string"/>

    </class>

    <class name="Story" table="story">

        <id name="id" unsaved-value="0">

             <generator class="increment"/>

        </id>

        <property name="info"/>

    </class>

</hibernate-mapping>

Save the array with POJO

Story[] stories = new Story[2];

stories[0] = new Story("hello");

stories[1] = new Story("bye");

Group group = new Group();

group.setName("Joe");

group.setStories(stories);

session.save(group);
