    Hi Steve,

    Just from looking at your mapping, what I think confuses Cayenne (and
    confuses me as well), is the fact that the relationship "whitelist ->
    org" doesn't point to the primary key (id), but rather points to
    another column (shortName). Any reason why you don't want to create
    "whitelist.orgId" column that points to org.id?

    Thanks
    Andrus
