[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Updated: (HHH-5390) Index column on inverse List should throw a warning

[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5390?page=c... ] Chris Bredesen updated HHH-5390: -------------------------------- Description: The manual correctly warns against trying to map an indexed inverse collection on a List. However, a configuration containing this invalid mapping builds successfully but causes null values to be inserted for the index column. Hibernate should be helpful and, if possible, throw a warning to the user (perhaps an error?) that explains the invalid combination. Here is an example that would run but produce invalid results: {code} @Entity public class Parent { @OneToMany(mappedBy="parent") @OrderColumn(name="order") private List<Child> children; } @Entity public class Child { @ManyToOne private Parent parent; } {code} The above is a typical one to many with the addition of @OrderColumn. Because Child owns the relationship, the index column is lost/ignored. Hibernate should warn about this. was: The manual correctly warns against trying to map an indexed inverse collection on a List.
