The collection is managed by hibernate and you are not allowed to change the collection instance.

I would add a setter in the hand written subclass like this:
    public void setPersons(List<Person> persons) {
        getPersons().clear();
        getPersons().addAll(persons);
    }

Hi
I have a ValueObject and a collection on it like so.
ValueObject MyValueObject {
   !immutable
   List<Person> persons changeable
}

The code generated makes the setter for this collection private. I would like it to be public, why, because of bean copying utilities.
Do I need to do something else to make that setter public.
Thanks
Saad
