[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HBX-826?page=co... ] Max Rydahl Andersen closed HBX-826. ----------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Fix Version/s: 3.2.beta11 Multiple issues here fixed in one: * basic type is now sorted or not (SortedMap vs. Map) * do not try and instantiate the comparator (circular dependency on not-yet generated code in sorter possible now) * generate default value with comparator so it is also correctly sorted when it is not persistent (new Set(new Comparator()); * ...and handle that TreeMap/TreeSet does not support (0) as init value. Example: import comparator.NoopComparator; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Collection; import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.List; import java.util.Map; import java.util.SortedMap; import java.util.SortedSet; import java.util.TreeMap; import java.util.TreeSet; public class Article implements java.io.Serializable { ... private List<Article> bagarticles = new ArrayList<Article>(0); private Map<String,Article> AMap = new HashMap<String,Article>(0); private List<Article> aList = new ArrayList<Article>(0); private SortedSet<Article> sortedArticlesSet = new TreeSet<Article>(new NoopComparator()); private SortedMap<String,Article> sortedArticlesMap = new TreeMap<String,Article>(new NoopComparator()); private SortedMap<String,Article> naturalSortedArticlesMap = new TreeMap<String,Article>(); ...
