this is my hbm file. here i am trying to save the record in Category table. i am using the field such as - id, name, parentcategory. the field parentcategory is the foreign key from the category table. i am storing the category id field there.while storing the data i am not facing any problem. but when i am editing the record i doesn't get updated.I used all the types of Cascade. But no use of it. Help me with proper solution.

Regards,
vijay
