I have the following structure
class User {
String fname
String lname
String email
static constraints = {
fname(nullable:true, maxSize:30)
fname(nullable:true, maxSize:30)
email(nullable: true, email: true)
}
}
class A extends User{
String smtng
List bInstance = new ArrayList()
static hasMany = [b : B]
static constraints = {
smtng(blank : true)
b(nullable : true)
}
}
class B {
String smtng1
String smtng2
static constraints = {
smtng1(blank:true, maxSize:50)
smtng2(blank:true, maxSize:50)
}
}
when I try to run this code it's displaying the following error

Notice:- I want unidirectional one-to-many relationship between class A and B What do I have to do to create those unidirectional relationships? Thanks
Your specific example makes no sense, as B has no properties of type A that would be candidates for the back-reference, let alone two possible alternatives. But in general, if you want to ensure that a hasMany relationship is unidirectional you can use a mappedBy value of "none":
class A extends User{
String smtng
List b // note: do not include an initializer expression here
static hasMany = [b : B]
static mappedBy = [b:"none"]
static constraints = {
smtng(blank : true)
b(nullable : true)
}
}
