Yoann Rodière ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?accountId=557058%... ) *commented* on HHH-15450 ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-15450?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiNTc2NG... ) Re: Add fluent style access type ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-15450?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiNTc2NG... ) We might want to consider how to make that the default, as well. We could have a configuration property (“use the FLUENT access type instead of PROPERTY by default” = true, “). We could also try to emulate the current mechanism based on @Id : on an entity, if the @Id annotation is found on a method that doesn’t follow the JavaBeans naming conventions (e.g. Long id() ), then we would default to the FLUENT access type. There are multiple challenges, though: * No idea how this would work on mapped superclasses that don’t include an ID, but I suspect we have the same problem with the current access type (no way to decide on a default). * What if I have a property in the fluent style that happens to also match JavaBeans conventions, e.g.`getDoneFast`? ( boolean getDoneFast; public boolean getDoneFast(); public boolean getDoneFast(boolean value); ) ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-15450#add-comment?atlOrigin=ey... ) Add Comment ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-15450#add-comment?atlOrigin=ey... ) Get Jira notifications on your phone!
