Hello,

I am kind of stuck here. I am using Teneo. I need to use the table_per_class inheritance mapping strategy but I also want each of those tables to have a generated (long or integer) ID (I don't want to have to mess with having to manage ID generation in Java code).

The table_per_class strategy seems to have a limitation of generated id's not being supported. In the following thread

http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/911763/?srch=%22Cannot+use+identity+column+key+generation+with+%3Cunion-subclass%3E%22#msg_911763

Martin says to change the id generation. I'm not sure if he means to use some other generation annotation? Is there a reasonable scheme to generate ids without using the "id generation" that table_per_class cannot handle? I'm looking through all of the Teneo documentation and examples but nothing is clicking.
Thanks
-Andrew

FYI: I can't use the MappedSuperclass option either because of the old ereferences exception "org.hibernate.MappingException: Association references unmapped class". Please help!
Just to make sure I am being clear if I have

class Person{
  String gender;
  String age;
}

class PoliceMan extends Person{
  String badgeNumber;
}

how can I configure teneo to have a generated ID field and have
a table PoliceMan with the fields

e_id(the generated id field), gender, age, and badgeNumber using the scenario above.

Thanks!

Hi Andrew,
I am not sure if table-per-class will work if mappedsuperclass doesn't work either.

Can't you use a custom id generator? I am more and more in favor of string/uuids as id's instead of these long/integer ids.

Are you suggesting that we add an implicit ID field to our model and manage our own IDs or is there a neat way to do this with annotations in Teneo? If there is could you give me an example?
Thanks!

Hi Andrew,
Yes you can use the standard JPA 2.0 annotations on that explicit id eattribute to control how to generate id's.
Explicit id efeatures are better in my opinion than implicit ones.
