Could not define uni-directional @OneToMany mapping [message #650966] Thu, 27 January 2011 10:43 Go to next message

The Parent class define the @OneToMany mapping to Child class, but Child class will not define any mapping back to Parent class.
Is uni-directional mapping allowed in EclipseLink? Because this is allowed in Hibernate.

The following exception will be thrown:
Exception [EclipseLink-7220] (Eclipse Persistence Services - 2.0.1.v20100213-r6600): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.ValidationException
Exception Description: The @JoinColumns on the annotated element [method getChildSet] from the entity class [class Parent] is incomplete. When the source entity class uses a composite primary key, a @JoinColumn must be specified for each join column using the @JoinColumns. Both the name and the referencedColumnName elements must be specified in each such @JoinColumn.


Here is our parent entity:
@Entity
public class Parent {
   

   @OneToMany(cascade=CascadeType.ALL, fetch=FetchType.EAGER, orphanRemoval=true, targetEntity=Child.class)
   @JoinColumns({
        @JoinColumn(name="col1", referencedColumnName="col1", updatable=false),
        @JoinColumn(name="col2", referencedColumnName="col2", updatable=false) })
   public Set<Child> getChildSet() {
       return this.childSet;
   }

}

Hello,

Yes, all JPA relationships are supported in EclipseLink. As the error states, its not that the relationship isn't supported, but that it thinks you have not added the Child enitties primary key fields into the joincolumn definitions. Can you post the Child entity? EclipseLink is case sensitive by default - can you try using
JoinColumn(name="col1", referencedColumnName="COL1", updatable=false),

Best Regards,
Chris

Thanks for your suggestion. But our DB column name are all small letters.

Here are the entities I tested.

Parent class:
@Entity
@Table(name = "ClassA")
@Cacheable
public class ClassA implements Serializable{
	private static final long serialVersionUID = -1535466991451378483L;
	private Map<Object, Object> fieldMap = new HashMap<Object, Object>();
	
	public void setId(String value) {
		fieldMap.put("id", value);
	}
	
	@Id
	@Column(name = "id")
	public String getId() {
		return (String) fieldMap.get("id");
	}
	
	public void setCode(String value) {
		fieldMap.put("code", value);
	}
	
	@Column(name = "code")
	public String getCode() {
		return (String) fieldMap.get("code");
	}
	
	public void setName(String value) {
		fieldMap.put("name", value);
	}
	
	@Column(name = "name")
	public String getName() {
		return (String) fieldMap.get("name");
	}
	
	@OneToMany(cascade=CascadeType.ALL, fetch=FetchType.EAGER, orphanRemoval=true, targetEntity=ClassB.class)
	@JoinColumns({
        @JoinColumn(name="id", referencedColumnName="id", updatable=false) })
	public List<ClassB> getListClassB() {
		return (List<ClassB>) fieldMap.get("listClassB");
	}
	
	public void setListClassB(List<ClassB> value) {
		fieldMap.put("listClassB", value);
	}
}


Child class:
@Entity
@Table(name = "ClassB")
@Cacheable
public class ClassB implements Serializable {
	private static final long serialVersionUID = -7306594226829492246L;
	private Map<Object, Object> fieldMap = new HashMap<Object, Object>();
	
	public void setId(String value) {
		fieldMap.put("id", value);
	}
	
	@Id
	@Column(name = "id")
	public String getId() {
		return (String) fieldMap.get("id");
	}
	
	public void setCoName(String value) {
		fieldMap.put("coName", value);
	}
	
	@Id
	@Column(name = "co_name")
	public String getCoName() {
		return (String) fieldMap.get("coName");
	}
	
	public void setPrice(BigDecimal value) {
		fieldMap.put("price", value);
	}
	
	@Column(name = "price")
	public BigDecimal getPrice() {
		return (BigDecimal) fieldMap.get("price");
	}
}

Hello,

What you posted for ClassA and its OneToMany mapping does not match what you posted originally - it only has 1 join column, while the referenced ClassB has a composite pk but isn't using a Primary key class as required by JPA. Can you fix this and post the exception again?

Best Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,

I have added ClassBPK as the @IdClass to ClassB. But the problem still exist. Attached please find the exception stack trace.

And an interesting thing we found is, the number of @JoinColumn at ClassA seems have to match the number of @Id at ClassB.
So we write:
	@JoinColumns({
        @JoinColumn(name="id", referencedColumnName="id", updatable=false),
        @JoinColumn(name="id", referencedColumnName="id", updatable=false) })
	public List<ClassB> getListClassB() {
		return (List<ClassB>) fieldMap.get("listClassB");
	})

and this works. Is it a bug?
