Hello Tom,
AFAIK it is that simple:
class Sojourn {
// ...
	
	/** Set of sorted references to tour-stops that take place at this sojourn. Please remind that these are also part of a tour. */
	@OneToMany(cascade = {CascadeType.PERSIST, CascadeType.DETACH, CascadeType.REFRESH, CascadeType.REMOVE, CascadeType.MERGE}, fetch = FetchType.LAZY, mappedBy = "sojourn")
	@JoinFetch(value=JoinFetchType.OUTER)
	private Set<SojournPosition>	positions;
	/**
	 * Creates a SojournPosition that references the given TourPosition and inserts it to the set of psoitions.
	 */
	public SojournPosition addTourPosition (int index, TourPosition s) {
		if (index < 0)
			throw new IllegalArgumentException (String.format ("Value %d for index is too small.", index));
		List<SojournPosition> sorted = getPositionsBySeq ();
		if (index > sorted.size ())
			throw new IllegalArgumentException (String.format ("Value %d for index is too big.", index));
		if (index == sorted.size ()) {
			if (positions == null) positions = new HashSet<SojournPosition>();
			SojournPosition sp = new SojournPosition (this, s, index);
			positions.add (sp);
			return sp;
		} else {
			SojournPosition sp = new SojournPosition (this, s, index);
			List<SojournPosition> positions = getPositionsBySeq();
			for(int i = index; i < positions.size(); i++){
				SojournPosition tempPos = positions.get(i);
				tempPos.setIndex(tempPos.getIndex() + 1);
			}
			positions.add (sp);
			return sp;
		}
	}
}
class SojournPosition {
// ...
	@ManyToOne(fetch=FetchType.LAZY)
	@JoinColumn(name="sojourn_id", nullable=false)
    @ForeignKey(onDelete=ForeignKeyType.CASCADE, onUpdate=ForeignKeyType.RESTRICT) // That's an annotation of our own.
	private Sojourn			sojourn;
}

Betreff: Re: [eclipselink-users] During synchronization a new object was found through a relationship that was not marked cascade PERSIST:
You are correct (the key here is the lack of a cascade to a related object).  Is 
your failing example that simple?

Hello Tom,
but isn't that what CascadeType.PERSIST is mentioned to do?
In the example given: If the instance of B referenced in A was marked cascade=CascadeType.PERSIST in A. Then I expect that this instance of B is persisted by EL, without a extra call of em.persist(). 
Am I wrong?

Betreff: Re: [eclipselink-users] During synchronization a new object was found through a relationship that was not marked cascade PERSIST:
This exception indicates that there is a non-managed object related to an object 
that is managed.
e.g. You have a relationship between A and B without cascade persist.  You 
create an A, related it to a B and then persist the A without persisting the B.

Hello,
 
I've got the exception mentioned in the subject although the relation is 
marked cascade PERSIST.
Any ideas what might cause this?
Is this a known bug?
 
We're using EL 2.1.3
 
Kind Regards,
Michael Simons
