To be able to use <generator> with <composite-id> ------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-2060 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2060 Project: Hibernate3 Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 3.2.0.cr4 Environment: Hibernate 3.x Reporter: Xavier Brénuchon Hello, This is the continuation of HB-389 We develop an application which has very strong need for performance with several tens of million recordings. Partitioning is a need. So for that, I use <composite-id>. But my primary key is not a natural key, but a real technical key : - column of partitioning for optimization of the data base - column of technical id So I need to have a generator, for exemple : <composite-id name="id" class="IdPartition"> <key-property name="org" type="string" column="ORG"/> <key-property name="id" type="long" column="ID"/> <generator class="fr.test.xavier.IdPartitionGenerator"> <param name="table">TAB_SEQ</param> <param name="column">LAST</param> </generator> </composite-id> The good news is that Hibernate can use that (HB-389). In fact, it is enough to modify the DTD to authorize <generator> in <composite-id> and it is all. The current code of Hibernate manages it very well. Is it possible that Hibernate is enriched by this functionality?
