[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Created: (HHH-6221) Hibernate throws AnnotationException on column used by multiple overlapping foreign keys

Hibernate throws AnnotationException on column used by multiple overlapping foreign keys ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-6221 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-6221 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Components: annotations, core, entity-manager Affects Versions: 3.6.0 Environment: Hibernate 3.6.0, HSQLDB 2, JavaSE (probably all Hibernate versions to date affected) Reporter: Karsten Wutzke Priority: Critical Attachments: overlapping-fks-hib-broken.zip Here's a view of the design: !http://www.kawoolutions.com/media/postareas-min.png! Simple logic: two tables use composite PKs and use a country_code column in the PK. PostAreas is a simple join table so its PK is comprised of the two linked tables' PK columns. Problem: both FKs in PostAreas use country_code to produce an overlap. This is per se nothing special, but in the context of JPA it is: there may be only one writable mapping in the @JoinColumn annotations, all other must be set to read-only, that is _insertable = false, updatable = false_. Here are the (incomplete) mappings (full SSCCE attached): {code:java} @Entity @Table(name = "Zips") @IdClass(value = ZipId.class) public class Zip implements Serializable { @Id @Column(name = "country_code") private String countryCode; @Id @Column(name = "code") private String code; ... } {code} {code:java} public class ZipId implements Serializable { private String countryCode; private String code; ... } {code} {code:java} @Entity @Table(name = "Cities") @IdClass(value = CityId.class) public class City implements Serializable { @Id @Column(name = "country_code") private String countryCode; @Id @Column(name = "state_code") private String stateCode; @Id @Column(name = "name") private String name; ... } {code} {code:java} public class CityId implements Serializable { private String countryCode; private String stateCode; private String name; ... } {code} {code:java} @Entity @Table(name = "PostAreas") @IdClass(value = PostAreaId.class) public class PostArea implements Serializable { @Id @Column(name = "country_code", insertable = false, updatable = false) private String countryCode; @Id @Column(name = "state_code", insertable = false, updatable = false) private String stateCode; @Id @Column(name = "zip_code", insertable = false, updatable = false) private String zipCode; @Id @Column(name = "city_name", insertable = false, updatable = false) private String cityName; @ManyToOne @JoinColumns(value = { @JoinColumn(name = "country_code", referencedColumnName = "country_code"), @JoinColumn(name = "zip_code", referencedColumnName = "code") }) private Zip zip; @ManyToOne @JoinColumns(value = { @JoinColumn(name = "country_code", referencedColumnName = "country_code", insertable = false, updatable = false), // <- !!! @JoinColumn(name = "state_code", referencedColumnName = "state_code"), @JoinColumn(name = "city_name", referencedColumnName = "name") }) private City city; ... } {code} {code:java} public class PostAreaId implements Serializable { private String countryCode; private String stateCode; private String zipCode; private String cityName; ... } {code} Looking at PostArea.city (*scroll down in the PostArea code box!*): the @JoinColumn for country_code is set to read-only on City and to writable on Zip. However, when running this from a JavaSE test app Hibernate fails with an AnnotationException: {code} Exception in thread "main" javax.persistence.PersistenceException: [PersistenceUnit: postareas] Unable to configure EntityManagerFactory at org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration.configure(Ejb3Configuration.java:374) at org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence.createEntityManagerFactory(HibernatePersistence.java:56) at javax.persistence.Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory(Persistence.java:48) at javax.persistence.Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory(Persistence.java:32) at tld.postareas.Main.main(Main.java:38) Caused by: org.hibernate.AnnotationException: Mixing insertable and non insertable columns in a property is not allowed: tld.postareas.model.PostAreacity at org.hibernate.cfg.Ejb3Column.checkPropertyConsistency(Ejb3Column.java:563) at org.hibernate.cfg.AnnotationBinder.bindManyToOne(AnnotationBinder.java:2703) at org.hibernate.cfg.AnnotationBinder.processElementAnnotations(AnnotationBinder.java:1600) at org.hibernate.cfg.AnnotationBinder.processIdPropertiesIfNotAlready(AnnotationBinder.java:796) at org.hibernate.cfg.AnnotationBinder.bindClass(AnnotationBinder.java:707) at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration$MetadataSourceQueue.processAnnotatedClassesQueue(Configuration.java:3977) at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration$MetadataSourceQueue.processMetadata(Configuration.java:3931) at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.secondPassCompile(Configuration.java:1368) at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.buildMappings(Configuration.java:1345) at org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration.buildMappings(Ejb3Configuration.java:1477) at org.hibernate.ejb.EventListenerConfigurator.configure(EventListenerConfigurator.java:193) at org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration.configure(Ejb3Configuration.java:1096) at org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration.configure(Ejb3Configuration.java:278) at org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration.configure(Ejb3Configuration.java:362) ... 4 more {code} When mapping a table that uses the same column in two or more foreign keys, only one of the relationships' @JoinColumn annotations may be tagged as writable.
