修改的办法：
在多对多的关系中使用myeclipse容易出现这种错误：

比如：

     <set name="authorSet" table="author_book" inverse="true" cascade="save-update"  >
            <key column="bid"/>
            <many-to-many class="Author" column="aid"/>
        </set>

在many-to-many 中class没有加上包名导致的以上错误：
修改如下：

     <set name="authorSet" table="author_book" inverse="true" cascade="save-update"  >
            <key column="bid"/>
            <many-to-many class="com.ch.army.Author" column="aid"/>
        </set>
