        if (!(object instanceof Client)) {

        }
        Client other = (Client) object;
        if ((this.clientId == null && other.clientId != null) || (this.clientId != null && !this.clientId.equals(other.clientId))) {
            return false;
        }
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "entities.Client[ clientId=" + clientId + " ]";
    }

}

我有clientList和clientList1，当我想将客户端添加到我的朋友列表时，不知道要使用哪一个。 谢谢你的任何建议。

好的做法是更新两者，以使对象图保持一致状态：

Client mainClient = ...;
Client newFriend = ...;
mainClient.getClientList().add(newFriend);
newFriend.getClientList1().add(mainClient);

但该协会的所有者，即JPA认为唯一的一方，是不具有mappedBy属性的所有者。因此，您只需将客户端添加到clientList即可向数据库添加新的友谊。

为了更好的可读性，我会为列表选择更好的名称。类似于clientsWhoAreFriendsOfMe和clientsWhoChoseMeAsFriend。
