Define ORM mapping

The ORM mapping can be defined either in the CFC or in a separate Hibernate mapping file (.hbmxml). See Advanced mapping for details on Hibernate mapping file. The ORM mapping is defined in the CFC using ORM-specific attributes on cfcomponent and cfproperty tag.

Following example shows a CFC (ARTIST.cfc) with mapping information:

<cfcomponent persistent="true" entityname="Artist" table="Artists"> 
    <cfproperty name="id" column="ARTISTID" generator="increment"> 
    <cfproperty name="firstname"> 
    <cfproperty name="lastname"> 
    <cfproperty name="address"> 
    <cfproperty name="city"> 
    <cfproperty name="state"> 
    <cfproperty name="postalcode"> 
    <cfproperty name="email"> 
    <cfproperty name="phone"> 
    <cfproperty name="fax"> 
    <cfproperty name="thepassword"> 
</cfcomponent>
