我有时会遇到奇怪的例外,其中一个就是这个：

javax.xml.ws.WebServiceException: javax.xml.bind.MarshalException
 - with linked exception:
[com.sun.istack.internal.SAXException2: A cycle is detected in the object graph. This will cause infinitely deep XML: org.mylib.Person[ personId=1 ] ->org.mylib.TeamPerson[ teamPersonPK=org.mylib.teamPersonPK[ teamId=1,personId=1 ] ] -> org.mylib.Person[ personId=1 ]]

我用google搜索了这个异常并找到了一些类似的情况,但我仍然无法理解这个问题.我刚刚使用NetBeans生成了这些类(Person.java,Team.java,TeamPerson.java),那么问题是如何发生的呢？

当我试图让所有人：

Iterator iter = team.getTeamPersonCollection().iterator();
while(iter.hasNext()) {
            Person person = ((TeamPerson)iter.next()).getPerson();
...
}

如果我从TeamPerson中删除Team引用,则会收到以下错误：

Internal Exception: Exception [EclipseLink-7154] (Eclipse Persistence Services - 2.2.0.v20110202-r8913): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.ValidationException
Exception Description: The attribute [teamPersonCollection] in entity class [class org.mylib.Team] has a mappedBy value of [team] which does not exist in its owning entity class [org.mylib.TeamPerson]. If the owning entity class is a @MappedSuperclass,this is invalid,and your attribute should reference the correct subclass.

生成的类的一部分如下所示：

Team.java

public class Team implements Serializable {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
    @Id
    @Basic(optional = false)
    @Column(name = "team_id")
    private Integer teamId;
    @Column(name = "type")
    private String type;
    @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL,mappedBy = "team")
    private Collection<TeamPerson> teamPersonCollection;

Person.java

public class Person implements Serializable {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
    @Id
    @Basic(optional = false)
    @Column(name = "person_id")
    private Integer personId;
    @Column(name = "name")
    private String name;
    @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL,mappedBy = "person")
    private Collection<TeamPerson> teamPersonCollection;

TeamPerson.java

public class TeamPerson implements Serializable {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
    @EmbeddedId
    protected TeamPersonPK teamPersonPK;
    @Basic(optional = false)
    @Column(name = "timestamp")
    @Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP)
    private Date timestamp;
    @JoinColumn(name = "team_id",referencedColumnName = "team_id",insertable = false,updatable = false)
    @ManyToOne(optional = false)
    private Team team;
    @JoinColumn(name = "person_id",referencedColumnName = "person_id",updatable = false)
    @ManyToOne(optional = false)
    private Person person;

TeamPersonPK.java

@Embeddable
public class TeamPersonPK implements Serializable {
    @Basic(optional = false)
    @Column(name = "team_id")
    private int teamId;
    @Basic(optional = false)
    @Column(name = "person_id")
    private int personId;
