[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-3434) hql insert doesn't work when inserting into a table with composite-id

hql insert doesn't work when inserting into a table with composite-id ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-3434 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3434 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Components: query-hql Affects Versions: 3.2.6 Environment: 3.2.6GA, any database Reporter: Ning Zhang Attachments: IntoClause.patch I have a table serving as an association table, so the Id of the table is just the ids from the linked tables. The mapping file looks like: <class name="UserPt" table="user_pt" > <composite-id> <key-property name="userId" type="java.lang.Long" column="user_id"/> <key-property name="ptId" type="java.lang.Long" column="pt_id"/> </composite-id> </class> And I need to run some HQL to insert the association into the table like: INSERT INTO UserPt(userId, ptId) SELECT user.id, pt.id FROM........... When I run this HQL, it gives an error saying: "can only generate ids as part of bulk insert with either sequence or post-insert style generators". I logged the bug in http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3400, but it is closed because I asked for a workaround. So this time I am not asking for anthing, just report the bug.
