[TYPO3-mvc] MM relation to pages Table

[Frank]

Hi Franz,

I want to display page related information.
I have three Tables

TableA   1...n   TableB   1...n   pages

An entry in TableA can have a setting defined in TableB depending on 
the site id defined in TableB_pages_mm
An setting can be used by multiple entries defined in TableA.

What functions have to be implemented in the Domain_Model_Pages Object?
Is it necessary to define a mapping?

config.tx_extbase.persistence.classes {
	Tx_Pluginname_Domain_Model_Pages{
		mapping{
			tableName = pages
			recordType = Tx_Pluginname_Domain_Model_Pages
		}
	}
}

Is it correct to define the following methods in the Model_TableA

/**
 * Properties
 *
 * @var 
Tx_Extbase_Persistence_ObjectStorage<Tx_Pluginname_Domain_Model_TableB> 
$entryprops
 */
protected $entryprops;

and then the: add, remove, set, get Method


Do I have to write the same in Model_TableB for the pages object?


Thanks,

Frank
