Hi all

How can I set the opposite (setOpposite()) of a Property programmaticaly?

When I try call prop.setOpposite(p2) then I get an IllegalStateException.

Any hints?

Thank you.

Hi

The debugger is always strongly recommended for debugging exceptions.

You will find that

public static void setOpposite(Property property, Property
newOpposite) {

if (property.getOwningAssociation() != null) {
throw new IllegalStateException();
}

indicating that opposites can only be set in the context of a valid
association.

Regards
