avoid auto import of superclasses to avoid inheritance mapping -------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ANN-528 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/ANN-528 Project: Hibernate Annotations Type: New Feature Components: binder Reporter: Armin Haaf It is not possible to avoid inheritance mapping if the superclass of a entity is also a entity. Background: A framework provides a basic mapping of a entity, but I want to extend that. With annotations it is not possible to just map my extended version and have the superclass behave like a MappedSuperclass. This behaviour is acceptable but it is not possible to override a the id generation. So it might be better to have a new annotation (e.g. @RootEntity(mapSuperclass=true)) to avoid auto import of the entity superclass. With that approach it would be easier to create modules and frameworks -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
