Should i create a calss to map 2 bridging DB table

[peter king]

Hi friend,

i have received an ERD model of a database that has teh following reltionships between tables: tblAddresses, tblSupplierAddresses, tblSuppliers....

The relationship between the tables tblAddresses and tblSuppliers is M:N therefore tehy have added a bridging table tblSupplierAddresses..

when i create the UML diagram by looking at the ERD diagram, what shoul i create for this bedging entity, should i create a seperate class in teh UML as SupplierAddress to map to tblSupplierAddresses?

thanks

Peter,

It depends on what you are modelling.
Do you want a database model then yes create the linktables.
If you want to create a "logical" entity model then you should just create the m-n associations between the actual entities.
