[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HBX-964) add serialVersionUID to entity classes

[ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HBX-964?page=co... ] Max Rydahl Andersen commented on HBX-964: ----------------------------------------- @jahlobrn: the difference is that without putting the serialversionuid the code matches the excpected behavior (no guarantee); put serialversionuid and you stop Eclipses stupid warning from happening and you now just have to wait for the seriliazation error to happen in mysterious ways. I know it is not perfect; just stating that I think its wrong ;) With respect to meta attribute then I was more thinking of having a flag like "ejb3" or "java5" as we have today, but since this will add too much configuration I'm fine with enabling generation of serialVersionUID (iif calculated based on signature and iif the class implement serializable) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
