Hibernate Many-To-One Unidirectional Mapping

Foreign key is always added on the "many" side;

User-Group:Many-to-one

1.Annotation

User class: Just need to add @ManyToOne tag before group variable

Group class:nothing

public class User {
   private int id;
   private String name;
   private Group group;
       
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue
    public int getId() {
        return id;
    }
    @ManyToOne
    public Group getGroup() {
        return group;
    }
    public void setGroup(Group group) {
        this.group = group;
    }
    
    public void setId(int id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }
}
