If I have a Entity class as such where a user can have multiple addresses:
@Entity
public class User {
private String name;
private List<Address> address;
}
@Entity
public class Address {
private String area;
private String city;
}
Should the DTO exposed for the webservice contain Address object (like what User contains) or an AddressDTO object like this?
public class UserDTO {
private String name;
private List<AddressDTO> addressList;
}
Where can I find example code using DTO objects that contain nested objects as such, where I can see best practices on how to populate those nested objects inside the main DTO? (I've googled ad nauseam but so far no examples with this scenario)
