The alternative:

@AttributeOverride( name="value.embeddableValue1", column=@Column(name="EV_1") )

Not require to be inner a @AttributeOverrides annotation?

[admin]

No, @AttributeOverrides is required when you are trying to specify multiple @AttributeOverride. This option has only one, so @AttributeOverrides is not necessary.

One of the correct options is:

Code: Select all

@AttributeOverrides(     {     @AttributeOverride( name="value.embeddableValue1",   column=@Column(name="EV_1") ),     @AttributeOverride( name="value.embeddableValue2",   column=@Column(name="EV_2") ),     @AttributeOverride( name="key.keyField1", column=@Column(name="KF_1") )   } )

However, it seems that it's wrong - the second @AttributeOverride contains "key.keyField1" (with capital 'F'), but in

Code: Select all

public class EmbeddableKey implements Serializable {     private String keyfield1;

you can see, there is keyfield1, with lowercase 'f'.
Therefore (, at least using Eclipselink schemagenerator) an exception will be thrown:

Exception Description: The attribute [keyField1] was not found on the embeddable class [class ch04.embedded.model.EmbeddableKey]. It is referenced in an attribute override for the embedded attribute [embeddedData] on class [class ch04.embedded.model.Employee].

As far as I know, field names are case sensitive. I'm not sure does the exception occur only at schemageneration?

Any update on sztgeza's post above? If that's indeed a typo, please update the question bank..

Many thanks,

Yes, he is right. The field in the class should be keyField1. Fixed.
thank you for your feedback!
