Compatibility of TABLE_PER_CLASS inheritance strategy with composite keys [message #630514] Sun, 03 October 2010 16:44 Go to next message

Hi,

Is there any (JPA) defined incompatibility between the TABLE_PER_CLASS inheritance strategy and the use of composite key?

With the following entities:
- BaseId: embeddable entity (to be used as embedded id)
- Base: base class, whose embedded id is BaseId and inheritance strategy is TABLE_PRE_CLASS
- Derived1: class derived from Base

EclipseLink (2.1.1) fails throwing an exception:
Exception [EclipseLink-74] (Eclipse Persistence Services - 2.1.1.v20100817-r8050): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.DescriptorException
Exception Description: The primary key fields are not set for this descriptor.
Descriptor: RelationalDescriptor(jpa03.Derived1 --> [DatabaseTable(DERIVED1)])

However, changing the Base key from BaseId to any simple primary key (e.g. int), things work correctly.

So, is this a JPA limitation or an EclipseLink limitation / bug?
I have read that TABLE_PER_CLASS is optional, so it may well be an EclipseLink limitation, but I did not find any explicit statement about this.

Regards,
Damien Carbonne

Can you post details on the EclipseLink version being used, the full stack trace from the error and the model being used? A similar setup exists in EclipseLink tests available at
https://fisheye2.atlassian.com/browse/eclipselink/trunk/jpa/ eclipselink.jpa.test/src/org/eclipse/persistence/testing/mod els/jpa/inheritance/Elimination.java?r=HEAD
https://fisheye2.atlassian.com/browse/eclipselink/trunk/jpa/ eclipselink.jpa.test/src/org/eclipse/persistence/testing/mod els/jpa/inheritance/Elimination.java?r=HEAD
https://fisheye2.atlassian.com/browse/eclipselink/trunk/jpa/ eclipselink.jpa.test/src/org/eclipse/persistence/testing/mod els/jpa/inheritance/DirectElimination.java?r=HEAD

Only difference is it is not using an EmbeddedId. Can you try directly mappiing the attributes on the base class instead?

Best Regards,
Chris

Thanks for answer.

I use latest EclipseLink (2.1.1.v20100917), under Linux, with Eclipse Helios.
The same behaviour exists under Windows using the same versions of EclipseLink and Eclipse.

Code follows. I could also send an archive of this small project.
I'll try to see if I can use IdClass instead of EmbeddedId.

Best regards,
Damien


jpa03/BaseId.java

   public BaseId() { super(); }

   public String getCode() { return this.code; }

   public void setCode(String code) { this.code = code; }

   @Override
   public boolean equals(Object other) {
      if (other == null)
         return false;
      if (!(other instanceof BaseId)) {
         return false;
      }
      BaseId o = (BaseId) other;
      return this.code.equals(o.code);
   }

   @Override

      return code.hashCode();

Hello,

I've filed bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=326973 after reproducing your model using the classes I outlined previously. Please vote for the bug to have it fixed.

In the mean time, a workaround is to avoid using the embeddedId and instead map the fields directly in the object, using the embedded class as the pk class.

Best Regards,
Chris
