Hi,

While testing out EclipseLink criteria API, I'm getting an error

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The type [null] is not the expected [ManagedType] for the key class [EntityBase]

when calling EntityManager.getCriteriaBuilder(). I seem to get the error only if any of the project's entities extend a non-entity. Without such entities the criteria query works, but if I add to the project something like:

@Entity
public class TestEntity extends EntityBase {
@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.TABLE)
private Long id;
public void setId(Long id){
this.id=id;
}
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
}

public class EntityBase {

}

.. the criteria query again fails at calling getCriteriaBuilder():

I'm using EclipseLink 2.0.1, Spring 2.5.6, Tomcat 6, PostgreSQL 8.4.

Any ideas how to get around this?

Janne

Hello,

Please file a bug for this issue and be sure to vote for it. Unfortunately I can't see any workarounds other than not using criteria api or not inheriting from non-Object classes. You might try making the EntityBase a mapped superclass, but its not much of a workaround. Hopefully someone else when looking at the bug.

Best Regards,
Chris
