JPA map relation entity parentID

问题

could someone help me to understand how can I define an entity with JPA mapping that has a relation with it self?

For example, my entity is CompanyDivision, divisionA contains divisionB, divisionC and divisionB contains divisionB1, divisionB2

• divisionA
  • divisionB
    • divisionB1
    • divisionB2
  • divisionC

Thank you!

It's not different from a relation between 2 different Entities. Here's an example:

class CompanyDivision {

    @OneToMany(mappedBy = "parentDivision")
    private Set<CompanyDivision> childDivisions = new HashSet<CompanyDivision>();

    @ManyToOne
    @JoinColumn(name = "FK_PARENT_DIVISION")
    private CompanyDivision parentDivision;
}
