Hi, I'm having an issue with Hibernate 3.2.5, where I have to save only the parent object in a one-to-many relationship.

For example, I have a flower A, that can have many details. Firstly I want to save only the flower, and the details will be added later.

This process throws an exception:

not-null property references a null or transient value: com.juflora.bean.JFlora._floraSetBackref

This is my code:

                JFlora flora = new JFlora();
                flora.setTypeId(Integer.parseInt(type));
                flora.setDescription(description);
                flora.setName(name);
                flora.setImage(image);
                flora.setFloraDetails(new HashSet());

                session.save(flora);

                session.getTransaction().commit();
