Using join and batch reading in the same query

Question

Hi,
I wonder if it is possible to use "Joining" and "batch reading" in the same query.
For example I Have
A -> 1-1 B
A -> 1-1 B
B -> 1-M C
This is the case where I have two separate 1-1 relationships to the same class B from A. Toplink 10.0.3 can manage it nicely through joining.
Now, I would like to read a set of As (with its 2 Bs) and all Cs for each B.
It seems that the following configuration does not work:
A -> 1-1 B (use joining)
A -> 1-1 B (use joining)
B -> 1-M C (Batch read)
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Tony.

James,
Would you be so kind to look at the following code?
Am I formulating it correctly to achieve my desired behavior?
Trip.class -> 1-1 PickupStop
Trip.class -> 1-1 DropoffStop
PickupStop and DropoffStop extend Stop and use same table (STOP)
Stop -> 1-M StopEvents
I would like to fetch all Trips, with their Stops and all StopEvents in 2 queries:
1. Trip joined with Stop
2. Batchread StopEvents
Code:
ReadAllQuery raq = new ReadAllQuery(Trip.class);
Expression qexp1 = new ExpressionBuilder();
Expression qexp2 = new ExpressionBuilder();
raq.addJoinedAttribute("pickupStop");
raq.addJoinedAttribute("dropoffStop");
raq.addBatchReadAttribute(qexp1.get("pickupStop").get("vStopEvents"));
raq.addBatchReadAttribute(qexp2.get("dropoffStop").get("vStopEvents"));
