[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (ANN-390) Property pointed to by "mappedBy" not found if defined in superclass of class referenced by "targetType"

Property pointed to by "mappedBy" not found if defined in superclass of class referenced by "targetType" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ANN-390 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/ANN-390 Project: Hibernate Annotations Type: Bug

Environment: Windows XP SP2, Eclipse 3.2 final, WTP 1.5 final HibernateTools-3.2.0.200607060659-nightly.zip with relevant jars in org.hibernate.eclipse_3.2.0.200607060659-nightly plugin replaced with same date jars built from SVN. Removed WTP plugins from Hibernate Tools dist since I already had them loaded. I realize that this does not exactly match the build drivers for the nightly I'm using, but I don't think this is the issue here. Reporter: Adrian Sampaleanu

When trying to open session factory in the Hibernate Console, I get: org.hibernate.AnnotationException: mappedBy reference an unknown property: com.tirawireless.jump.jdm.model.task.DeploymentTaskImpl.deploymentPlan in com.tirawireless.jump.jdm.model.plan.DeploymentPlanImpl.deploymentTasks at org.hibernate.cfg.annotations.CollectionBinder.bindStarToManySecondPass(CollectionBinder.java:503) ..... The relevant property and annotation is as follows: @OneToMany(targetEntity = DeploymentTaskImpl.class, mappedBy = "deploymentPlan", fetch = FetchType.LAZY) @OrderBy(clause = "name ASC") @Cascade({CascadeType.SAVE_UPDATE}) public Set<DeploymentTask> getDeploymentTasks() The "deploymentPlan" property is _not_ defined in DeploymentTaskImpl, but is defined in it's superclass. I would think that it should be visible when establishing the mapping above. Have not found this issue addressed in either the forums or JIRA.
