[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-4078) EntityMetamodel#entityNameByInheritenceClassNameMap mapping from class or class names?

EntityMetamodel#entityNameByInheritenceClassNameMap mapping from class or class names? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-4078 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-4078 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.5.0.Beta-1 Reporter: Tsering Shrestha In the constructor of EntityMetaModel (http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/core/trunk/core/src/main/java/or... revision 15258) Line 314: if ( persistentClass.hasPojoRepresentation() ) { entityNameByInheritenceClassNameMap.put( persistentClass.getMappedClass(), persistentClass.getEntityName() ); However at Line 578: public String findEntityNameByEntityClass(Class inheritenceClass) { return ( String ) entityNameByInheritenceClassNameMap.get( inheritenceClass.getName() ); } Why are we using java.lang.Class as the keys when we put new entries to the map but try to read with java.lang.String keys?
