How to completely ignore annotations for entity mapped with xml? [message #1739346]

For my project I need few entities to contain only limited set of attributes and completely ignore mapped super classes.

I've added exclude-default-mappings=true and metadata-complete=true to entity mapping, however it still considers annotations from mapped super classes.
Is there a way to fix it?

My xml file example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<entity-mappings xmlns="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink/xsds/persistence/orm" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" version="2.1" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink/xsds/persistence/orm">
    <entity class="com.mycompany.TestCompany" exclude-default-mappings="true" metadata-complete="true" name="TestCompany">
        <table name="COMPANY"/>
        <attributes>
            <id name="uid">
                <generated-value generator="TABLE_GEN" strategy="TABLE"/>
                <column name="COMPANY_ID"/>
            </id>
        </attributes>
    </entity>
</entity-mappings>

How have you named and pointed your persistence unit at this eclipselink-orm.xml file? Try setting logging to Finest and check out the logs to see what EclpseLink is doing during deployment.

Yes. The point is that I get correct result with entity - only limited set of attributes is mapped, but I still get attributes from mapped super class.

I've added mapped-super-class in xml file as well without any mappings

<mapped-super-class class="com.mycompany.AbstractTestCompany" exclude-default-mappings="true" metadata-complete="true" name="AbstractTestCompany">
 </mapped-super-class>

It was enough for my task.
