[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Created: (HHH-3445) Single Table Inheritence Broken for non table-unique keys
Single Table Inheritence Broken for non table-unique keys
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: HHH-3445
URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3445
Project: Hibernate3
Issue Type: Bug
Environment: Hibernate Core: 3.2.6.ga
Hibernate Annotations: 3.3.1.ga
Hibernate EntityManager: 3.3.2.ga
DB2 Linux 9.1
Reporter: Todd Tidwell
I have an interesting mapping case that is causing me some very odd low-level errors. In
this particular case, I'm working with a table that contains multiple objects and I
can use a DiscriminatorColumn to differentiate. However, the "primary key" for
the child objects is not guaranteed to be uniqe table-wide. For example,
DiscriminatorColumn value '013' may have a unique-key value of 'A',
DiscriminatorColumn '014' may have the same unique-key value.
To map this, I created a base class, gave it the DiscriminatorColumn annotation, and then
extended it with my various types.
Here are the classes:
@Entity
@Table(name="WTTBLE")
@DiscriminatorColumn(name="PTBLE")
public abstract class MetaData
{
@Id
@Basic(fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
@Column(name="PCODE", nullable=false, insertable=false, updatable=false)
private String code = null;
@Basic(fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
@Column(name="DEF", nullable=false, insertable=false, updatable=false)
private String value = null;
....
}
@Entity
@DiscriminatorValue(value = "015")
public class AddressType
extends MetaData
{
// No fields here, they're all mapped in MetaData
}
@Entity
@DiscriminatorValue(value = "016")
public class CustomerType
extends MetaData
{
// No fields here, they're all mapped in MetaData
}
Now, this works great until they both have the same value for the "code"
property. At that point, I get the following logging and exception:
org.hibernate.impl.SessionImpl - initializing proxy:
[com.wiley.permissions.domain.persistence.wintouch.metadata.AddressType#A]
....
org.hibernate.event.def.DefaultLoadEventListener - load request found matching entity in
context, but the matched entity was of an inconsistent return type; returning null
....

After some serious research, I found that org.hibernate.engine.StatefulPersistenceContext
is returning the wrong object from it's getEntity method. It's returning a
CustomerType object, which was added to the session's cache after the address type. On
furthur examination, this seems to be because org.hibernate.engine.EntityKey.equals() is
returning the same value for both objects. EntityKey's code for lines 95 -99 is:
public boolean equals(Object other) {
EntityKey otherKey = (EntityKey) other;
return otherKey.rootEntityName.equals(this.rootEntityName) &&
identifierType.isEqual(otherKey.identifier, this.identifier, entityMode, factory);
}
Examination of the values of EntityKey for my objects show that rootEntityName for both
objects is test.MetaData. That means that this method is going to return true. That, in
turn, means that StatefulPersistenceContext's entitiesByKey HashMap is going to return
the first one that equals the one passed into the get() method.
