Comment.cfcwith the following description:<cfcomponent persistent="true" entityname="comment" output="false"> <cfproperty name="id" ormtype="id" generator="native"> <cfproperty name="from" ormtype="string"> <cfproperty name="comment" ormtype="text"> <cfproperty name="dateCreated" fieldtype="timestamp"> <cfproperty name="post" fieldtype="one-to-one" fkcolumn="id" cfc="Post" insert="false" update="false"> </cfcomponent>

fieldtype="one-to-one"to the property to define how this component will relate in the ORM to thePost...
