errors, if the target field is in an embeddable but it works otherwise. For example, the following does not work:

@Entity
@Table(name = "thing")
public class Thing implements Serializable {

	@Id
	@GeneratedValue(strategy = IDENTITY)
	private Integer id;

	public Integer getId() {
		return id;
	}

	@Embedded
	private UniqueField uniqueField;

	public UniqueField getUniqueField() {
		return uniqueField;
	}

	public void setUniqueField(UniqueField uniqueField) {
		this.uniqueField = uniqueField;
	}

}

@Embeddable
public class UniqueField {

	@Column(name = "unique_field", length=50, nullable=false)
	private String value;
	
	public UniqueField() {}
	
	public UniqueField(String value) {
		super();
		this.value = value;
	}

	public String getValue() {
		return value;
	}
	
	public void setValue(String value) {
		this.value = value;
	}
}

@Entity
@Table(name="more_to_it")
public class MoreToIt {
	
	@Id
	@GeneratedValue(strategy = IDENTITY)
	private Integer id;

	public Integer getId() {
		return id;

	@Column(name="data",length=300)
	private String data;
	
	public void setData(String data) {
		this.data = data;

	public String getData() {
		return data;
	}
	
	@ManyToOne
	@JoinColumn(name="unique_thing", referencedColumnName="unique_field", updatable=false, insertable=false)
	private Thing thing;
